After a compelling première outing in 2011, Obaro Ejimiwe stands up to second album pressure with ease.
A progression is evident on Ghostpoet's sophomore album – where Peanut Butter Blues... felt like a little like a hotch-potch of influences and styles, Some Say I So I Say Light has a consistent, polished sheen. Obaro Ejimiwe has lost none of his wit or love of wordplay, but here the whimsical, nursery-rhyme cadences of his debut are all but gone, replaced by a melancholic, observational spirit of reflection
Ghostpoet's new album is eerie and mysterious, and occasionally intriguing, but <strong>Paul MacInnes</strong> can't quite get a handle on it
