Numb is exactly how we feel after listening to this song, and it makes perfect sense because numb is exactly how you should feel after being smashed by bars – in the physical sense as well as in the lyrical one. This song is sonic-therapy. At this pace, Mitch Uta will never fall off; his route is superstardom-bound, and with every release, he seems to fortify his viability as a…
“Sondela” answers a question that is as old as time itself; that if most relationships end in desolation and heartache, what’s the point of it all?Get this: “Because everybody needs somebody!” Valee Music and Charlie Kay are crusaders on a mission of love. and as corny and sickly as that sounds, it’s true. The song is all about higher feelings and tearing down your walls and entrusting your heart in…
One can only hope that maybe one day we, as a people can awaken from our drowse and appreciate all that which we’ve been sleeping on; canned fish, random acts of kindness, Seth Curry, Dark Waters (the movie), and of course, Manu Worldstar’s music. Manu is no stranger to having his unbelievably good jams being buried under piles and piles of industry hogwash and noise that just happens to have…
When it comes to music, we’ve always asked for one thing; to be able to feel something. To be confronted in uncommon ways, to be one with the melody, and to simply be. When it comes to Hillzy’s music, it’s always a serendipitous encounter, one that evokes superior emotion without fail. His music does not move us fortuitously, no, it’s always intentional. And honestly, how are we expected to remain…
‘No Cap’ is the win we’ve been in pursuit of. The Last Letter makes a plunge into emotional waters and she’s not coming up for air till all her grievances are resolved. Like many of us, she’s frustrated by all the games and inconsistencies in these situationships, or dare I say, entanglements. But while the rest of us choose to sit back and take it like a man, she’s not…
Its almost as plain as a pikestaff that Mitch Uta would rather be referred to as a rapper than a singer and of course that’s something that’s not uncommon in contemporary R&B circles. Regardless of what might be perceived as attempts to conceal his vocal abilities in the name of culture, his prowess is clear-cut and unabated. Evidently, he is going for a specific kind of sound with this song,…
Artists have always received praise for drawing inspiration from their immediate surroundings and in turn channeling that energy into their creative work. Such projects have always been known to evoke intense emotion whenever they land in the hands of a listener. However, the art of filtering the content from which to draw inspiration is, an art so subtle that many fail to master it. In as much as we relate to fuel shortages, when we think of topics that should be covered more often in music, it ain’t one of them. If this whole song is an analogy of all the struggles we face here in Zimbabwe, then the boy sure took it too far. And the possibility that K.I.N.G Mataz might be rapping about fuel metaphorically flies out the…
