Brand New: Chiwawa – Hey Baby

Here is another random song on what I will call New Music Friday (please note that new is relative word at this point because these songs had been released last year but they are getting to us this week).
I want to say many things about Chiwawa but I will reserve my comments. For what its worth this is an interesting song, its got a little bit of everything, from a far I can hear some Kwaito, some Genge, some Zouk and some Kapuka or Genge – Its an interesting production and a good attempt at trying something different.
I will let you guys decide for yourselves what you think about the song.

Interlude: Daudi Kabaka feat Chiwawa – Bachelor Boy
As I was cleaning out my gmail inbox I discovered that there is so much music hiding in my email account (thanks to Xoopit.com) I am able to sieve through so much data and find out whats important and whats not. (believe it or not I have malizad my gmail space and quota).
That said in 2006 one of my Blackstar soldiers Edu Gee (he does most of the video and production work for Blackstar – Blackstar Films) produced this track which was a remix of Daudu Kabakas Bachelor Boy and a blend of a hook that chiwawa made. I personally never liked Chiwawa, he rubbed me the wrong way one day – toka siku hiyo hatuja wahi patana, laini Chiwawa is a real Chiwawa… he he he it doesn’t matter what I think about him personally, the boy can spit rhymes every once in a while.
They did this clip one day in the studio, I thought it would be fun to share it – I still cant believe Daudi had a track called Bachelor Boy..
ps. Edu Gee is not a producer so dont critic this based on sound/music production, I think he did this more for fun than publicity. I hope he doesn’t spark coz I shared it.
