about

With the sweltering heat of Summer 2013 now truly upon us, Yinka delivers a cool breeze with his new single - Little Hipster Girl Lost (Aug 19).

Love it or loathe it the hipster phenomenon is all around us, from London to New York and beyond. Yinka shares his perspective on it through shimmering latin-tinged guitars, vintage hip-hop drums and chilled soulful vocals.

lyrics

Verse 1

Take a look at the sun, but you can't appreciate
Cos all the things that you've done, got you feeling in such a state
Second to none, you really think you're at the pearly gates
Last night you said

Pre-chorus

Yeah I buzzing now
Ok I'm buzzing now
Yeah I'm buzzing but I'm not falling over
If I keep from passing out
Keep from passing out
Keep from passing out I must be sober

Chorus

The thrills take you up
The bills take you low
You little hipster girl lost
You're a long way from home

Verse 2

Take a look at the sun, it shines different in the Mid-West
Such a long way to come, to hear guys tell you that you're corn fed
And look at your bum, you knew you'd have to use your head
Your head

Pre-chorus

But you're not putting out
No you're not putting out
You're not putting out, you're not rolling over
Ok it's happened now
Yeah it's happened now
Tomorrow another leaf you'll turn over

Chorus

The thrills take you up
The bills take you low
You little hipster girl lost
You're a long way from home

Verse 3

Take a look at the sun, you would if you could open your eyes
Your head bangs like a drum, the traffic rumbles like bass lines
Deep in your tum, Better run for the bathroom your solo here it comes

Chorus

The thrills take you up
The bills take you low
You little hipster girl lost
You're a long way from home

about

Yinka Oyewole UK

He’s been heralded as 'the missing link between Talking Heads and Prince' but British/Nigerian singer/songwriter Yinka Oyewole is carving out a musical niche that is all his own - adapting funk, hip-hop, soul, rock and his Nigerian heritage via syncopated rhythms, while seamlessly weaving these together with excellent storytelling into his compositions.

Expect his debut album late 2013.
