Christy Essien- One Understanding

In her heyday, Christy Essien was known as the "First Lady of Song" in the Nigerian pop music world. Containing that ever-cherished Nigerian boogie texture, One Understanding differentiates itself by leaning heavily on American styles of pop and dance happening during the 1970s. The record's highlife and sparkly funk was largely overlooked in Nigeria. Luckily the OG label Afrodisia has reissued the timeless release to a patient audience just as the time is ripe for Essien's boogies. 

Purchase the reissue of Christy Essien's One Understanding out now via Afrodisia Records.
