The jam dubbed Kilio has been getting a lot of airplay since it came out a few hours ago and to be honest, we are also feeling it or else we would not be reviewing it, would we. Okay maybe we would but I am sure that you get my point.
Basically, this track is about a man and a lady who were deeply in love but somewhere along the way, things changed and he started mistreating and being disrespectful towards her.
In the song, the Bongo singer says he often hides the house keys, physically assaults her and comes back home drunk on many occasions. As such, she is left with no option but to cry in pain.
Kilio is really infectious. Other than the powerful message that it carries, after listening to it I am sure you will agree with me that it is well-arranged.
Ruby has an an amazing the kind that most of us would not mind listening to the whole day. As you listen to her, you get to connect with her on a more personal level because of the sincerity in her voice.
The beat and instrumentation are impeccable. I, however, feel that some people might not really like the mellowness but I feel it works.
I absolutely love the video for this jam. Everything about is on point. Some of the things that stood out for me are the dramatization, lighting, props, concept and the brilliant execution. I totally love it.
Watch Kilio below and tell us what you think. Enjoy!
