Musical Interlude

[.]

In particular. Shot in JNB

When Afrobeats met Kwaito.  Iconic video.


Also Chike & Mohbad.  Naija cultural appropriation of Limpopo(Wanitwa Mos) style.

Very, very nice! I'm starting to get addicted to that Limpopo style. Very soothing yet sturdy at the same time. Kazi safi sana.

Tarrus Riley - Come Ova. This was the joint back in the day!

[.]

Before he went bankrupt! Reminds me very much of the dancefloor at Shak-a-tak disco/Tandoori, Diani Beach Road, South Coast circa Krisi hols 2009/10. Njamba/KenyanPlato, si you remember that place😁? Apparently it's still going strong. I loved the open air makuti set up that it was back then. Beats would ricochet onto the street from this track very nicely!

This was grown-folks music even back then 😎🔥

I see someone has decided to come out with big guns blazing, musically speaking ! Big joint back in the day. Has a Bobby Valentino, Tell Me melody and vibe to it. Kali sana. 2005-2010 was another sweet spot of music IMHO. Mellow vibes, good beats, just good times, no drama or politicking on the beat.

Sunday morning coffee in the verandah music. Song meaning "the sins of love"
Let's just admit it. The Mzansi folks have it locked when it comes to deep morose-ful songs that hit the soul.
As I always say, where the black man experiences the worst collective suffering, the music comes out top notch.
Apartheid in this case!

Enjoy your Sunday, peeps

Hawaii 😎🔥

Cali mems!

Even Biggie admitted that this track was hot despite him being it's victim🤣.
The difference between Pac's and Biggie's music IMHO was that though both lyrical geniuses, Biggie spoke to people's brains but Pac spoke to people's hearts! That's why he was so loved/a bigger star compared to Biggie!

Iggy Pop - The Passenger (Official Video)

Iggy is the punk legend. I dare say Elvis-level, if he wasn't such a rebel.


🎤🎶🔈🎤🔥💯
❝
I am a passenger
And I ride, and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight

I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped back sky
And everything looks good tonight

Singin' la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la, la la

This. The uncontroversial Miriam Makeba.
