A refreshingly non-generic piece of Afrobeats (arguably the least varied music genre currently existing), what sets If I Start To Talk most apart from the already congested world of African Music is its positive message and the lack of 'shake your [insert appropriate body part here]' in its lyrics. Whilst the cynics among its audience might highlight how relatively weak the verses are, this is nevertheless bulldozed over by the triumphant chorus and exultant percussion as the song reaches its conclusion.
