“I am like a tree, planted by the rivers of water… All that I do must prosper ♪♪”
The bell-like vocal tone that churn out the chorus of Folake’s new single – “Like a Tree” will stay ringing in your ears after the song is through. Isn’t that what an evergreen song is all about? Literally, that is… It makes perfect sense, evergreen – like a tree – most definitely has to prosper!
Aside the excellent sing-along type of chorus, Folake’s rap verses, although was rendered in a typical British tongue twisting rap style, the prowess and audibility cannot be denied. Folake is giving a lot of her male counterpart a run for their money… And their belief as well. The message is profound and edifies the soul. With such songs around, pastors need not tell the congregation about speaking and thinking right.
“I’m Like a Tree” arguably ranks amongst the top 10 Gospel Rap song of this season and Folake Awesome has shot herself up the ladder of Gospel Femcees with this single… Respect to Bouqui. (Hehehe…)
