So Good is a low tempo Afrobeats piece that gives the listener a soothing feeling while inducing strong imagination with the poetry-like rap, immersing the listener into the love story that the song tells. So good is inspired by a piece of poetry written by OG Mage as part of a collection of 20 poems submitted for the “Green Author Prize” Award in 2017.
