In a beautiful homage to legacy, Tony Ugabi has breathed new life into his father’s classic hit, Oghena Solamame, with a reimagined remix titled Solama (Reloaded). This revamped version is a soulful blend of the old and the new, where Tony skillfully honors Chief Vincent Ugabi’s original Etsako Highlife masterpiece while adding his unique contemporary flair.
Chief Vincent Ugabi, the pioneer of the Etsako/Weppa Wanno sound, captured hearts with his spiritual and culture-rich melodies in the ’70s. Now, his son carries the torch, ensuring the iconic rhythms and hypnotic vocals continue to resonate across generations.
Solama (Reloaded) maintains the introspective energy of the original but weaves in modern instrumentation and a groovy twist. Tony’s interpretation is a seamless dialogue between the past and present—a musical handshake across time.
Whether you’re a Highlife enthusiast or just curious about the enduring beauty of Etsako music, this track will make you sway, smile, and perhaps marvel at the timelessness of great artistry. Long live the Ugabi dynasty!
