"Photogenic" feels both new and familiar. The rhythm is based on Afrobeats, but it has unexpected instrumental flourishes that give it depth and personality. The way Mela sings the song fits perfectly with its theme. There is an effervescent energy, a buoyant optimism, and a palpable sense of discovery that makes the feeling of new love almost real.
The track is charming because it strikes a balance between tradition and new ideas. "Photogenic" uses the fun musical textures of Afrobeats to create a feeling of connection that is both electric and short-lived. The song is both personal and broad, it's a celebration of emotion that everyone can relate to.
"Photogenic" is a picture of love in its early, exciting stages, set to a beat that makes you want to dance. With this release, Mela shows that she is becoming more and more popular in the LA music scene. She mixes her Nigerian roots with a cosmopolitan style that is all her own. This song is going to be one of the best in the world of Afrobeats. It's a shining tribute to love that people will listen to over and over again.
