Drizilik, Idris Elba - Ashobi (Official Video)

[@lifeisgreat4220]

I swear Idris seems to enjoy life and doesn’t take being a star too seriously which is great to see.

[@OumyNeferti]

He hopefully is wise and enlightened enough to understand that "famedom" is superficial and that the essence of a human being is skin deep. He simply keeps in touch with REALITY because he knows who he is and not based on what other people think he is or should be.

[@reigon7072]

I appreciate the complete participation of Idris into this project That's what support means

[@irukandji89]

Don't worry ... It is already an anthem in Nigeria for owambe parties too ... Aso Ebi parties. Especially weddings 🥰🥰🥰

[@adeolugodwin4267]

Yeah it sounded like Aso ebi(Yoruba) and I think it mean the same thing.

[@melvintwist]

Yes it means the same just a slight difference in the pronunciation 😊👌

[@LadyElizondo]

I happened upon this by coincidence and it made my weekend. I'm a Texan, born and raised, so I don't have a clue about the lyrics. Yet, the energy, soul, spirit and magnetism is undeniable. ❤️

[@bwngb4690]

You should try listening his 'Ashobi' album you’ll love it trust me

[@Ladorisbell]

Same here. It popped up on my feed but I like it. 🎉

[@Prebearr]

Okay

[@davidschiller517]

They are speaking Krio, that’s our common language in Sierra Leone. They are both Sierra Leoneans.🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱

[@Shayoyeye5223]

Good thing I have worked with brothers & sisters from Sierra Leone, so I understand this dialect well. We say “Aso ebi” they say “Ashobi”. Still means same thing & it’s nothing to be splitting hairs over. One love ❤

@@chrisoghenetegamaloney5799 it is but it is also in our language. the "creoles" are mostly nigerian descendants so its quite common to hear similarities in language. Krio is an actual language compared to pidgin.

Nice song of the year for marriage 💑 🤵‍♀️ 👰‍♀ 👌 👏

[@TaeTee]

Nice tune! 🔥It's actually "Aso-Ebi" which is a Yoruba (one of the major tribes in Nigeria) word that refers to matching outfits made of local fabrics (like Ankara) worn by family members or relatives during a particular occasion (Weddings, Birthdays, Burials etc)....Much love from Naija 🇳🇬

[@ican6401]

Well they said it's ASHOBI

[@zarahfatima4179]

He is not referring to the yoroba language, it's our own local dialect "krio" so he is right it Ashobi.

[@zarahfatima4179]

And I recently realise that, the yoroba and krio dialect has almost the same words, and same meaning too. When I speak krio my Nigerian friends thought I was speaking yoroba for example, our bride we say, we yawo and they told me it means the same in yoroba language.
