Darey out with new Sisi Eko

By Kazeem Popoola

DAREY Sisi Eko, one of the latest hits of Darey Art Alade, is not a new vibe to those, who have heard all the tracks on Darey's recently released album. But numerous followers of the crowned Nigeria Africa's King of R 'n' B, now have something fresh to savour on for some time.

The re-mix version of Sisi Eko, which original was jointly written by Darey and ace music producer Cobhams Asuquo, hit the airwaves a couple of days ago. The new single that features the acclaimed Prince of Highlife, Flavour, is said to have been produced by Darey and Del B, at Soul Muzik studios (SMS) in Abuja. Just like the original version, the re-mix is an anthem for the Lagos Lady otherwise known in Yoruba parlance as Sisi Eko. The Lagos clubs are already moving to the music; loving the increased tempo and the result of the powerful blend of Darey and Flavour's amazing styles.

Speaking on the new song, Darey said, “we did this for the ladies again. I'm glad my friend, Flavour, is able to join me on this celebration of our beautiful women.” The new single, Darey says, is the first of many remixes to come; as the multi-award winning musician prepares to release a re-mix album before the end of the year. As Darey is currently working hard to complete his first international album later this year, the remix album will be released online and in the Nigerian market. In other news, Darey's international profile is growing rapidly, His debut UK single 'The Way You Are' featuring Chamillionaire is getting rave reviews from the UK press, and battling for number one position on the popular Billboard music chat.

Analysts are suggesting that Darey could be the one who would finally import Africanmade R'n'B into Europe'. His UK album, to be self-titled, is due later this year. In Sisi Eko re-mix, both singers pour adulation on the subject of the song; painting pictures of blissful union and willing to give it all to keep her despite all the drama that comes with wooing her. Fans can listen to Sisi Eko remix' on Darey's facebook page or via www.darey.com, where the gifted singer says he has surprise gifts for those who stop by regularly.
