By Adeyemi Moronfolu
“ARA” crooner Olawale Olofo’ro
popularly known as Brymo is set to release his 5th studio album titled KLITORIS. This
unconventional album title and artwork has been causing quite a stir on the
social media with popular Nigerian artiste Olamide badoo, commenting on the album
title and art on Twitter.
The album Klitoris is
said to be a reflection of Brymo’s thoughts, imagination and
philosophy, and was created by an American artist Georgi Georgiev of
Moonring Art Design. Brymo in his words explained: “Klitoris is a Greek word for 'key'. It is
where the word 'clitoris' itself originates. This album is the key to a certain
door I have knocked on for years,” he told TheNetNg.
“It is art,
some might find it to be creepy, but it is just art. On the original artwork you
could see all of the woman’s breasts. An edit was done by Duks here in Lagos after iTunes
refused to put it up on the grounds that it’s pornography. The
artwork is an expression of how I love and how I am unsure of the woman, all at
the same time,” he said.
