Umu Obiligbo - Aku Bu Ilo – Umu Obiligbo Legacy album

In the much-anticipated “Legacy” album by Umu Obiligbo, the 11th track, “Aku Bu Ilo,” unfolds as a powerful exploration of the idiom “wealth attracts enemies” in the Igbo language. The duo, Okpuozor and Akunwafor Obiligbo, known as Umu Obiligbo, delve into the complexities of success, pleading with those harboring ill intentions to sheathe their swords and acknowledge the blessings bestowed upon them by God.

The title, “Aku Bu Ilo,” encapsulates the central theme of the track, serving as a poignant reminder that prosperity often comes with its share of challenges and adversaries. Umu Obiligbo, through their lyrics, implore their detractors to embrace the reality of their success and desist from harboring animosity.

Hailing from Anambra State, Umu Obiligbo has carved a niche for themselves in the music industry, reviving highlife music with a fusion of Afrobeat. Their musical journey, rooted in the legacy of their grandfather, the late Chief Ezigbo Obiligbo, a prominent Ekpili music star in the 1970s, reflects a rich heritage and a commitment to preserving the cultural essence of Igbo music.

“Aku Bu Ilo” not only showcases Umu Obiligbo’s musical versatility but also highlights their ability to infuse profound cultural messages into their compositions. As they navigate the nuances of success, the duo continues to solidify their position as torchbearers of contemporary highlife, seamlessly blending tradition with a modern musical approach. The track stands as a testament to their resilience, urging listeners to reflect on the complexities of wealth and success while celebrating the rich musical legacy passed down through generations.
