IGN!S
It’s Throwback Thursday! And as such, we at Gospotainment are treating you to an all time classic today! (Hint: It’s ODUN LO S’OPIN).
Everyone remembers the C.A.C. Good Women from back in the day right? Alright, let’s refresh our memory quickly.
The C.A.C. Good Women was a group that sang a number of evergreen songs back in the day. Led by Mrs. D.A. Fasoyin, they recorded the all time classic “ODUN LO S’OPIN”, an end-of-year prayer-song recorded in Yoruba.
Well, that’s what we have on our Throwback Thursday menu this week. Do enjoy!
