Gospel legend TY Bello joins forces with Folabi Nuel on “Kilode,” the third track from her ambitious double-album project.
The song arrives on I Speak Lamb, a 20-track body of work that pairs with its sibling release, I Speak Lion.
Fans waited two years for fresh music from the singer, so expectations ran high before this drop. “Kilode” places Folabi Nuel’s soulful vocals right alongside TY Bello’s own, which brings added texture to the gospel sound she is known for. Both artists merge their voices across the track, so the collaboration feels like a genuine conversation rather than a standard feature.
The decision to place this record so early in the running order makes sense. It signals the range running through the full project, proving she is not holding back the big moments for the back end. TY Bello, who hails from Ogun State, first gained popularity with the gospel group Kush in the 2000s. She later built a solid solo career marked by songs like “Greenland” and albums including “We Are Fire” and “HEAVEN HAS COME.” That history gives “Kilode” a solid foundation, because she knows exactly how to pace a long project.
So does this record meet what listeners hoped for after that two-year wait? Drop your thoughts in the comments below and let us know if “Kilode” is an early highlight on I Speak Lamb.
