Nigerian Soul singer/songwriter Maka has recorded a new age Christmas classic, on the track she envisions meeting the one; just in time for the Christmas holidays.
Maka joins forces with producer extraordinaire BigFoot, they fuse reggae and a Jazzy Soulful twist reminiscent of the holiday season creating the quintessential millennial Christmas song.
Maka fantasizes about meeting her significant other right around Christmas, the fun they’ll have together and taking him home to meet her family in hopes that the flames burn long after the spirit of Christmas is gone.
The track is reggae and Jazz infused, titled “Before Christmas” Maka reflects on recording the song.
“I sat at my piano composing the melody, then I wrote the lyrics thinking about how nice falling in love is especially around the holidays. You’re excited but then you’re also skeptical because the season is fleeting and so are the flings of holidays. So it’s a song where I hope I not only fall in love during the season but it last forever and I feel everyone will relate to that”
