Face 2 Face is a 2004
album by
2face Idibia. It became a major hit (sold up to 2 million copies), initially in Idibia's home country of
Nigeria, but quickly spreading through western and southern
Africa, and eventually making an impact in Europe as well. Its success owed much to lead radio track "African Queen", a guitar ballad with elements of West African folk music and
hip-hop. "Nfana Ibaga" also became a local hit.
