The-Mith Set To Release New Single - #NdiSteady


By Byaruhanga Felix (@TheNinjaFelix)

The Klear Kut Kapo (The-Mith) is set to release his fourth official single "Ndi Steady"  off his "Destination AFRICA" album. The song is produced by one of UG's notable hip-hop producers by Koz-N-Effekt. The song  is about knowing that we all go through challenges but one has to be ready to get through the challenges.

It's the kind of track you bump in the whip with your fuel gauge showing "E" but you ain't worried cause you know you'll get to your destination and back though you've proper plan on how you'll refuel it. The song strikes a balance between one's struggles and how to get through them while smiling.

I asked The-Mith on how he came up with the concept before the writing and recording and this is what he had to say;
"
I was at one of the Kwivuga Poetry Night sessions, when Nunu, who used to host it got up and talked about the hardships she was facing. She said, regardless of what life throws at her, she's ready for it, she is steady. The moment she said that, there was an instant connection. I immediately started working on the song. It took a day writing those verses, because there was so much content to write about."

The song will be available for download here on the blog and other links below;

GRITTY CYPHER 2 [Review + Download]



By Byaruhanga Felix (@TheNinjaFelix)

When discussing 2015 hip-hop projects, CYPHERS will come up and you won’t miss talking about the GRITTY CYPHERs. Gritty cypher 2 is a follow up of the first “Gritty Cypher” which dropped 6 months ago with a video to accompany it (you can check It out below). The Gritty Cypher is a brain child of Cheno Billy who is a hip-hop critic and activist whose main aim with these cyphers is to promote “slept on emcees” as he describes it. So, on his cypher you get a fresh new line up of rappers like Ajo, Mal X, Tigoh Dtrick, Egwe , Gbaraspoken, though some who made an appearance on the first cypher still come through like Payne Keelah.

Still with the same producer 207 of the first Gritty cypher, who I personally think can’t miss in the discussion of 2015 UG hip-hop producers Cheno brings versatility on the cypher through rappers like Egwe (who raps in luganda) whom I first encountered back in the day when i was still doing behind the scenes work for 100 Acres Entertainment his label, so It’s refreshing to see him on a major project like this one. Then you’ve Gbaraspoken who raps in lugbara which goes further to show you the penetration of hip-hop in Uganda and versatility of this cypher. Most rappers on this cypher have complete projects like Ajo’s  Mixtape “Rap Music I Sing”, Payne Keelah’s “16 x 16 = 256 Bars” and Mal X’s “Demonstration” so if It’s your first time to listen to any of them “spit” go get those projects. Download the Gritty cypher here

#UGCYPHER2 Verse Of The Day - Lyrical G




Follow the leader, most rap n****s is just features/

My tactical technique cause n****s to catch seizures/
I bomb tracks, warhead, harzardous on the instrumental/
Go against I, swear to God it's detrimental/
I'm off the leash causing extortion on the beat/
Convicted of 1st degree murdering all you wack MC's/
Geezy for he's sick as the HIV/
I leave them stretched out or permanently stuck to an IV/
Freeze, pause & wait, this ain't for those who can't relate/
I pack the type of skill to make you discombobulate/
Simply the best, choke on the words a n***a said/
As I forever, continue to reign on your parade, I Am Legend./

#UGCYPHER2 Verse Of The Day - Mun G


They call me Mun* Papa, king of the cypher/
My 16s kill animals, Eid Adha/
Smell danger, gwe nnyindo za Baganda/
Coz when I come through these rappers mbaleka mu pamper/
I make paper everyday nga kyuuma kya Picfare/
I make rappers bow down ng'abasaala zi swala/
Gwe gwa mu wallet yange mujjudde by'etaano byokka/
Nnunda mazike nga jyooli Uganda Zoo mwenkola/
Billboard rapper, house building n***a/
Artist of the year 4 times my n***a/
Nzijukira obuwala bwa'ndissinganga lwa pimples/
Now all these girls is stuck to my ass, like kapintos./


#UGCYPHER2 Verse Of The Day - NAVIO


And I ain't even reached my best years/
It's genetic, older I get less fear/

Mama got stabbed & she never shed tears/
So you best believe that we're coming for that cheque, yeah/
You owe me something, oo that's a mess there/
The whole we bluffing? Now I know your set scared/
Dudes take shots like it'll grow em chest hair/
I'd hate to whoop you in these Jordans, damn that's my best pair/
If I go away the whole chart missing/
Flex talk truth & everybody start b****ing/
Went from, alcoholic, to Rapaholic/
Nav need a mirror to tell himself "god I got it" I Got It./
