Soundwela Media presents Ilu Le O by Sir Victor Olaiya mp3 download. Although it was released decades ago, Ilu Le O remains strikingly relevant till today. Its message about economic hardship and the pursuit of wealth still relevant in today’s economic reality.
Victor Olaiya’s classic song Ilu Le O is a timeless social commentary that captures the economic struggles of the society, where both men and women cry out over financial hardship. Victor Olaiya, with his usual brass-heavy sound, paints a vivid picture of economic woes, lamenting that “There’s hardship, no money.”
The song cleverly highlights the desperation of people trying to make ends meet. Women and men alike are lamenting, everyone is shouting for money. But Olaiya doesn’t stop there—he adds a satirical twist. He warns men that not all affections are genuine; sometimes, when a lady dresses up nicely and gives you attention, it’s not necessarily love—she might just be after your money!

Ilu le o ko s′owo lode
Ilu le o ko s'owo lode
Obinrin n kigbe okunrin n kigbe kaluku lo n kegbe owo
Obinrin n kigbe okunrin n kigbe kaluku lo n kegbe owo

Mo beere e titi won o jise fun e ni, Ani se e
Iro lo n pa o owo lo n wa yen
Mo beere e titi won o jise fun e ni, anio
