Oyigiyigi O”: A Soulful Guitar-Vocal Devotion by Zikstrings and Companion

With this lovely cover of Enakeno's "Oyigiyigi O" Zikstrings comes the heart-wrenching strummer, fingering rich, evocative chords that distill the entire performance His performance is free but restrained—every strum thoughtfully calculated, every movement smooth. The rich sound of his acoustic guitar brings out the fervently religious voice of the opening grateful hymn, and the chaste, reflective atmosphere is established from the first note.

Where Zikstrings holds instrumental playing, his vocal counterpart delivers the song with loud voice playing. The singer's voice is soft yet stern, gradating and rolling with emotion per sentence in Yoruba. Innocence and humility are concealed in the performance, more so in singing hard lines such as "Alagbara l'oruko re" (Your name is powerful), infusing each verse with adoration and faith.

There exists a quiet chemistry between the vocals and guitar—Zikstrings does not just accompany, he dialogues with the vocals via his strings. Pause, strum, chord changes are all perfectly attuned to the singer's rhythm as though two acts of praise rather than two distinct performances.

Visually, it's an earthy, laid-back look with music itself taking center stage. No glamour, no glitter—but raw, impassioned expression. A good reminder that production does not serve worship; it does take integrity, and this cover has more than enough.

My conclusion:
This version of "Oyigiyigi O" is a stunning duet wherein the virtuoso guitar work of Zikstrings provides a holy platform for a soul-quaking vocal performance. They do not merely provide a song–they set up an atmosphere of passion-crazed devotion and contemplation that lingers long after the last chord has dissipated. A must-hear for gospel and acoustic praise music fans or should I just say: people like me 😁
