Wale Waves Returns With ‘Babalawo,’ Eight Years After Surviving Three Life-Threatening Accidents (Listen)

Veteran Nigerian musician Olawale Olakolu, profoundly called Wale Waves has released his highly expected comeback song, titled ‘Babalawo,’ after surviving three life-threatening accidents that led to his eight years hiatus in the music industry.

Wale Waves has made world-class and award-winning movie soundtracks likes ‘Figurine (Araromire)’ by the Award-winning film Producer/Filmmaker Kunle Afolayan; ‘The Call’ by Woli Arole, directed by Abinibi for Rock bottom flix production; ‘NIMBE’ by Filmtrique production company, to name a few.

‘Babalawo’ expresses Wale Wave’s real-life story years back, during his university days in LAUTECH, Ogbomoso, Oyo state, Nigeria, as an Electronics and Electrical Engineering department undergraduate, in order to glorify his lord God, after being prophesied to, by different clergymen, also, series of life-threatening dreams from friends and families, that he has a short lifetime to live.

Wale Waves afterward survived three different stages of deadly accidents and occurrences, which caused his eight-year break from the Nigerian music industry. This song also morally touches on the ‘envy experience’ in most polygamous families.

To God be the glory, ‘back n better,’ and it’s now 19 years after, against all odds, as a survivor, and still counting, till he lives his long life as he wishes, by the grace of GOD.

‘Babalawo’ is evergreen and well-organized symphonic song composed, written, and performed by Wale Waves in 2017, during the homecoming of his old-time Nigerian born American-based music producer friend, Kola Ladapo, known as Koded, who recorded him in Nigeria and went back to the United States to mix and master.

Enjoy this piece, and expect Wale Wave’s new EP coming soon.
