ÌFÉ’s latest single is a musical invitation to the benevolent forces that be. Drawing from rhythms and incantations of sacred Yoruba praise songs, ÌFÉ calls out to those would would hear us in our times of need. Keenly aware that our most potent gods and loves are first met dancing, and we take our plunges from there. Part celebration, part adoration, “Umbo” beckons us into that space between places, where we can let go and be brought to shore.
