Reviewer: JEFFREY OWUSU

“With you I am the best I’ll ever be... In times of distress Oh Lord you’re my fortress. In you with you there’s no stress, so much gladness whenever I’m in your presence.” A few lines culled from the lyrics of a song you can easily fall in love with. Okey Sokay describes the absence of GOD in a way Romeo would describe the absence of Juliet. However in this 21st century, Okey Sokay does it better. His choice of words very descriptive leaves you in a bit of suspense in the beginning; the chorus is simple, repetitive and tuneful. Listen to “Without You” a second time and you will not only be nodding your head in agreement but you will also be singing with ease, especially the entire chorus. This is your song when favour shows up in your house or at your workplace, knocks on your door and says, “GOD has smiled on you.” This is your kind of music when GOD reminds you of how powerful He is when you go through a crisis and how able He is to bring you out of every dilemma. Okey Sokay is an amazing audio engineer, a producer, a creative musician. His creativity manifests itself in this meaningful song which you can listen to any time of the day.
