    This one almost slipped under my radar. After hearing Obongjayar on Little Simz album last year, I was keenly keeping an eye out to see what he would produce next.

    Some Nights I Dream Of Doors is a super unique sound, and brings to my attention many sounds and textures that I am not familiar with. As a western listener, there is a sense of mystery surrounding what the influences are,

    I am thoroughly impressed by the artistic flavor being displayed here and this one should not go unlistened this year! The album cover is a 10/10. the music I'm giving a STRONG 8

    There is no filler as such on Some Nights I Dream Of Doors, though there are some pacing issues that could be dealt with by rearranging tracks. However this does not prevent it from being an auspicious debut, and a fine showcase for Obongjayar’s many talents.

    Some Nights I Dream of Doors feels like a real expression of Umoh’s wide-ranging influences and it succeeds in showcasing his diverse vocal range. However, at times it feels restrained and, for an artist as unique as Umoh, it feels like a missed opportunity.

    The rawness to his vocals add grit to a sound definitely polished, but not sanitised. ‘Some Nights I Dream of Doors’ may shed the crudity that helped build intrigue around Obongjayar, but there’s enough here to excite the faithfuls and attract new members to ‘OB Dream Corp’.
