Images

• File:Sauti Sol - Midnight Train album cover.jpg Y (non-free image, with rationale)

Infobox and lead

• The image has no caption
• "...who commended Sauti Sol for pushing the envelope..." try to avoid idioms and use phrases with no double-meanings.

Background and recording

• Replace generic link with COVID-19 pandemic in Kenya
• "Otieno told OkayAfrica that their personal experiences and what they go through as men and husbands inspired the album's music" Written just after the mention of COVID suggests that he's talking about their personal experiences with it, when in the reference it's about their personal experiences in general.
• "...the second version was made available at some point in 2020" sounds way too imprecise

Promotion

• Seems fine

Music and lyrics

• "Recorded in English, Swahili, and Luhya, Midnight Train explores..." Hit the brakes. How do you record a song in three languages? Does it jump from one language to the other, or does it have three distinct versions?
• "The percussive track "Wake Up" evokes the need to dance" People does not "need" to dance. Perhaps it's the "desire" to dance?

Singles

• Why does the Kenya Film Classification Board rate songs? Isn't it for films?

Critical reception

• Seems fine

Personnel

• I'm not sure if Spotify can count as a source. What about music databases like Allmusic?

Those are the issues I have noticed so far. Cambalachero (talk) 17:46, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
