[0:59] Speaker 1: it tames. There's a sense of boldness behind the phrase,

[1:10] Speaker 1: distinctly Nigerian identity. While the overall concept feels bigger than

[1:29] Speaker 1: allowing the different voices and lyrical ideas to remain at
[1:32] Speaker 1: the center. Ginto sets the tone with a confident presence.
