IX by Kareem Idris X 7 Grand
This album highlights the topic of Death (Transformation) from an Ifa perspective. Death is not a finite junction, but rather is merely a transformative shift that is necessary for existence. "A man/woman experiences two deaths, one being a physical death, the 2nd is when your name is no longer mentioned" We pray to live forever by our works and good deeds. Ase O
