We have been documenting a lot of Abbas over the last few months, so much that his latest entry on the site featured the same artists he seems to be supporting on this track. Murume (Juu ya Laa) just happens to be my best track so far from Abbas this year, I look forward to replacing that song on my ipod.
This is some new heat from Harry Kimani, or off Harry Kimani’s upcoming album. I’ve always been a fan of HK, only that I felt his Bhangi would hold him down too fast too soon. I understand he is off that shit these days, but HK is one of the most talented vocalist in Kenya. When he dropped Waithera – it was like whoa! basss the official Kikuyu chic magnet song was out. Every chile wanted to be called Waithera so that the song could be dedicated to them. However funny enough I dont like the name Waithera – I like Njambi instead or Njoki – those are classic Kikuyu names.. even Njeri although thats too common. But I digress sorry…
I like this song, its mellow its interesting and its a good weekend track – its not Harry’s best work nor Abbas but it will pass for being featured here and being acclaimed. Give it a listen.
