Ole by 2Baba feat. Freestyle
"Ole" (featuring Freestyle) is one of the most impactful tracks on 2Baba's Face 2 Face album, where he takes on the theme of corruption and dishonesty in society. The word “Ole” means “thief” in Yoruba, and the song boldly addresses social issues, highlighting the struggles of ordinary people facing exploitation, corruption, and deceit at various levels of society.
The track begins with a catchy beat that blends Afrobeat with hip-hop influences, creating a sound that is both compelling and accessible. Freestyle’s guest verse adds intensity and a gritty edge, complementing 2Baba's smooth vocal style. Together, they create a powerful dynamic, with Freestyle’s rap adding an extra layer of urgency to the song’s message.
Lyrically, 2Baba is straightforward in calling out the "thieves" in society—those who misuse their power, exploit the vulnerable, and perpetuate a system of inequality. The song’s hook is memorable, acting almost like a chant that draws attention to the issue of corruption, while reminding listeners of the everyday effects of dishonesty on society as a whole.
"Ole" is more than just a song; it’s a social commentary. 2Baba's commitment to addressing real-life issues shines through, making "Ole" one of the tracks that solidified his reputation not only as an artist but as a voice for the people. Its boldness, rhythm, and thought-provoking lyrics make it a timeless anthem against corruption that still resonates deeply today.
