They call him ‘Brymo’ but Ibrahim Ashimi Olawale is the artiste behind hits like Oleku, Good morning and the eclectic crowd-pleaser Ara. In the local Yoruba language, Ara means wonders and it just catapulted Brymo to limelight. The hit is off the highly acclaimed sophomore album Son of a carpenter. Kudos to Chocolate city for scooping such talent to their label.
