After the victory by Obama last year and the song “Swagger Like Us” by T.I driving the streets crazy at that time, I thought of a way of flipping the script to reflect that historic win. I immediately thought of the basic idea , ran it through a couple of artists, and the ones that came through first were K-Nel and Bamboo. They jumped in the studio to give their take on the 2008 elections “swagger” year and the result is a winner. Immediately the “Obama Swagger” song premiered on Homeboyz radio, the calls and comments coming from various sources was that the song had held it’s own weight as compared to the original version. This is one of those street songs that capture your everyday life and meant for everyone since we all got some type of “swagger” in us. Also, Bamboo is in talks to sign to K-Nels Stars limit roster. Enjoy the track!!!!!!!

i respect K-Nel’s approach when it comes 2 his music.he and i share the same theory regarding mixtapes.hip-hop n rap thrives on mixtapes since its the only way 2 exercise ur lyrical skill without the limits of labels n management or when an artist is between albums.which is why most mixtapes r labelled 4 promo use only.most kenyan artists dont bother with mixtapes.which is cool coz mixtapes r a rap n hip-hop phenomenom n not a genge or kapuka style.either way, “swagger” is a classic.n theres no one better 2 drop a 16 on it than Bamboo.i hope he signs with Stars Limit.with Knel’s ethic n Bamboos talent, that camp is finna drop some ridiculous shizzle.cant wait.
Still trying to get these configs right… it will only be a moment..
Thanks
