#AHAlbumReview: Album Review: Chemistry by Falz X Simi [@falzthebahdguy X @SympLySimi]

 
Artiste: Falz X Simi
I know this would sound like an irony but I knew these two had chemistry between them the first time I heard their collaboration, I could sense something different coming our way and they proved me right with their next collaboration Soldier which belonged to Falz as Jamb Question (their first collaboration) was for Simi.

Individually, we know how dope Falz is, I mean his ability was never in doubt as he has successfully given us various hit songs throughout the year but as for Simi my doubt about her stopped when I heard the work she did with Adekunle Gold's album. Collaboratively, listening to Jamb Question and Soldier it was clear that any collaboration between these two would definitely be a hit (and maybe that is why these two artistes have been musically romancing themselves and rubbing it in our faces)

At this point I would like to give special credit to every producer that worked on this project, chai the production of the EP na die. Simi showed us how powerful her vocals are as she utilized it on the Chemistry song which is the first track on this EP and Falz proved just how lyrical he is, the rating would be 9/10.

Cinderella, the instrumentals in this song is just top notch, the strings were really busting my brain. This is a classic Afro Jazz sound and the rating would be solid 9/10. 

I am not sure I would get enough of this Enough song which happens to be song number 3 on this EP. Everything about this song is just dope, the production, the mixing, the lyrics everything is dope, abeg the rating na 10/10.

When I saw the name Foreign I had a feeling this would be the most local song on the EP and from the beginning you could hear it from the beat. This song reminds of Shakara, the first Falz' song I heard just that him flows for here dey matured and of course Simi brought her Open and Close swag here and they bought killed it. The rating would 8/10. 

Shake Your Body sounds more like Falz' Jessica but just like other songs on this EP they both came through though they sounded a bit tired on the verse. The rating would be 7/10.   

Show You Pepper is like the civilian version of Soldier as both of them also came through on this one, the creativity behind the lyrics na die. The rating would be 9/10. There is no other way to bow out from this EP if not with this song Want You, this is a true R&B song, and it reminds me of Kelly Rowland's Motivate (ft Lil Wanye). The rating would be 9/10.

If by now you are still waiting for someone to tell you about this EP, I am sorry but something mustz be rong with u. This album is classic as it defines what a good music should sound like and I am not sorry to say this album has become the best collaborative album in the last 20years. The rating for this whole album would be 9/10.
