Iwe Kiko // Olugbenga Adelekan - pt 2

We're joined once again by Olugbenga Adelekan to listen through your incredible takes of Iwe Kiko, a traditional Yoruba children's song about remembering tradition in a modernised world. If you haven't already, we really recommend you go and listen to part one where Olugbenga introduces the tune to us.
