LYRICIST LOUNGE - Suited – Shekhinah featuring Mr Eazi

Suited – Shekhinah featuring Mr Eazi

 The lounge cannot but be cozy as South African songstress; Shekhinah teamed up with Mr. Eazi to render butterfly-feeling lines on the song titled ‘Suited’. This was a remix of the 2017 hit by the Sony Music song bird; Shekhinah. The remix had a slower pace compared to the original song and the lyrical content by both songwriters were top notch as they were rendered effortlessly by the African acts.

The anthem kicked off with Mr. Eazi’s signature line ‘Zagadat’. You already know the talented singer is about to blow the MIC afterwards. A little hum by the song bird; Shekhinah paved way for Mr. Eazi’s lines which were rendered in English and Yoruba languages. He claimed he is suited for this love by choosing these words:

 Lotun losi o (left and right)

 Morning and the night

 Laro lale o (morning and night)

We do the time lean on the line

Your love is mine, you cannot divide

Baby you dot my eye

Cause you know say (that) you be (are) my design

Shekhinah bounced on her song in emphatic fashion. Her do-re-mi game was on point. She said:

When we talked on phone and you said that you love me

Did you say that just for show yeah

I wanna scream from the top of the rooftop

Tell you that my love for you

I keep on rewind

I struggle to find

You worser to find

She then repeated ‘what a love, what a love yeah’ severally to confirm how suited the love is. Her last two lines were really a punch line.

                                     Tailor made I’m glued up on my lover yeah

                                      Never lose him to another yeah.

Mr. Eazi then repeated his earlier verse which was the chorus. This led to the second verse by Shekhinah. She is well suited for this love as she said:

                                        See I just really miss you yeah

                                        And I’m forever in time to you

                                        Somehow I just stay glued to you

                                           I wanna , gotta get away

                                           So we play husband and wife

                                             You take the keys to my life

                                       I know we’re just a little young yeah

                                And having just a little time too much fun, baby

Mr. Eazi brought the song to a close saying ‘Baby you dot my eye, dot my eye’.

Lyrical lounge was suited for this kind of lyrics. Just as Shekhinah pointed out, ‘It’s just something we both know, suited for each other’.
