Deola steps into the spotlight with Composure & Kawosoke, a dual-pack release that captures
two sides of the same emotional rhythm: one intimate, the other exuberant. Together, the tracks
showcase his range as an artist who understands both the quiet heat of desire and the full-
throttle joy of release.
“Composure” is an Afro-fusion groove that leans into the tension between passion and restraint.
Over smooth melodies and layered percussion, Deola sings of being captivated by someone’s
presence, so much so that she pleads, “show composure,” even as the fire between them
grows. It’s a song about attraction that’s intense but never reckless, sensual but grounded in
mutual awareness.
In contrast, “Kawosoke” bursts open with energy. The title, meaning “rise” in Yoruba, sets the
tone for a carefree Afropop celebration built for dance floors and late-night drives. With bright
rhythms and a catchy hook, the track invites listeners to drop their worries and move without
hesitation. As Deola puts it: “No stress, no worries, just rise, dance, and enjoy life to the
fullest.”
Together, Composure & Kawosoke offer a complete experience: one track for the heart that’s
racing, the other for the body that needs to move.
