#Yansakata-Kyle ft. FlexD'Paper [Song Review + Download]

By @MarriedToKush

I am pretty sure the phrase “Yansakata, yansakata, yansakata kiboko nazimatira” is familiar to most of us from our childhood days. Well, Kyle (@uptownKyle) borrowed that phrase, called up one of his buddies first name Flex, last name D’Papper and made a song about it.

Whaaat?

Hey, relax. The man released a song; he did not bring world peace. As I was saying, Yansakata  is  song telling  a story/ experience/ feelings of  a boy (young man) who is smitten by a girl (young lady) he just met and just like one would expect, it is the ultimate song for people who are drunk in love or working towards achieving that goal.

Kyle has continued to prove to us that he means business in our entertainment industry and is here to stay, as he releases hit after hit. Brother is shaking things up!

There are many things that contribute to a good song for example; a great beat, catchy lyrics, great production, well thought & selected out artists to be featured and a unique voice. Yansakata is what we call a breath of fresh air as it combines all the above aspects. It is because of this that I can confidently request you to go ahead and DOWNLOAD it.

Producer:Dreign

Length: 3:40

Genre: RnB

By Byaruhanga Felix (@TheNinjaFelix)

If you follow the Ugandan urban music then Sonny(@Sonny_Soweez) isn't new to you and your play-list. She has three singles (including No Other) and she appears on a number of hip-hop songs like St.Nelly Sade's  'love Story' where she lends her vocals. In case it's your first time to listen to her music then  relax, you will be hooked  after listening to 'No Other'.

 NO OTHER  produced by JohnieBeats of BigTune studios gives Sonny ample empty space and time to to exercise her vocal powers. No Other is one of those songs that will make you think of that one person that has been there for you through the ups and downs. Ciddy (@CiddyThaillest) jumps on to express his love side along the lines 'You give me all the strength to get up when I'm falling for you/If true love really waits, i don't know patience payments'. No Other is set to be released today.

GO HARD - The-Mith [Song Review]

By Byaruhanga Felix (@TheNinjaFelix)

In my last blog-post I introduced Mr.So UG's 'Go Hard' with a snippet; in case you're just getting to know "Go Hard" it's the the second official single off The-Mith's Sophomore album 'Destination:Africa'.

It's packed with heavy lines that The-Mith accurately delivers  on a chilled trap-ish hard beat produced by one of the top UG hip-hop producers, Aethan and Samurae. On this track he gives a reason to his rivals why he is at  the top level and he is not there to claim the spot but to own it.

"Here’s a track for my rivals/

I’m taking all of their titles/

So clear the track for my arrival/

I came, I conquered/

Run the game without no sponsors/

Topped the game from all 4 corners/

Bruce Wayne/ no Joker/"

 

 

As you go ahead to listen to the track you notice that The-Mith has mastered the art and his craft is on point. With tracks like Winner and Go Hard being released it shows you a clear picture of what to expect on the entire album. 

Listen To GO HARD here.

Get GO HARD Lyrics here.

#THROWBACKPLAYLIST: SEPTEMBER REIGN [Vol.1]-THE MITH

Cover Art: September Reign

By Byaruhanaga Felix (@TheNinjaFelix)

It’s been 5years since The-Mith dropped his first solo project that cemented his brand TMMG on the UG hip-hop scene. It was this project that introduced us to him as an individual away from the klear kut group. The mixtape gave birth to an anthem “I’m So UG” that later developed into a lifestyle and a fully-fledged brand with merchandise. So, this week on my #ThrowBackPlaylist I re-visit the mixtape and look at some tracks that made it a “Master Piece” that it is.

Sight

This is one of the timeless tracks on the mixtape (of course after So UG). It’s a song that will be relevant to the UG hip-hop industry year after year because of the message attached to it. On this track Mr. So UG, talks to his fellow rappers on how to move the industry forward and also paying tribute to P-Tech (R.I.P). While listening to this song one can easily see how The-Mith has influenced the industry through his lyrical content.

“I hope to see more emcees collaborating, less hating, more unity & less segregation/
This way English and lugaflow can both get representation/
I hope to see an emcee get the artist of the year nomination and go ahead to win the award/
I have seen those who win the award and trust me with what they sing they shouldn’t even be near the award/”
---The-Mith (Sight)

He goes ahead to rap telling his fellow emcees to stand up against the media who ask for payments to get their music far which almost every emcee or any upcoming artist generally in the Ugandan music has gone through when trying to push his/her music.

Give It Up

The instrumental on this track has a catchy old-school melody that will get your head bopping. On this one he features Don MC who delivers his verse clearly and deliberately with witty punchlines. This is one of the on the mixtape where they get to prove why you shouldn’t compare them to rappers since the genre is competitive and no emcee allows that one is better than the other.

“I don’t give a finger so, screw your comparisons/
I’m nicer than any one you have me up against/
These rappers are straight jokers, Heath Ledger/
Do the math even in death they will never be better
It’s time for my Reign [rain] so, they seek shelter”
---The-Mith (Give it up)
 

Caution

I can go back & forth talking about this one but to sum it all up this is one of the tracks that make the mixtape what it is. The-Mith comes on lyrically strong with pinchlines sculpturing his verses with no hook. He goes ahead to rap;

“Put me on the same page as Nav & Kruk/
Before you get disarmed by the charm of an iron hook/”

---The-Mith (Caution)

As you continue to listen to the mixtape you understand why he is one of the most influential rappers in Uganda. The mixtape boasts of features from Klear Kut ( sweet & stay high), Young Nick (beasts from the east), Unique (who has a full song rapping alone), GNL (You know what’s up on which The-Mith does a verse in luganda) and Benon (on she’s so hot). In case you don’t have the September Reign mixtape just google it  you will be able to download it.

The-Mith is currently working on his sophomore album “Destination:Africa” which has some of africa’s hip-hop big acts appearing on it like IKechwuku from Nigeria, J.Town & Screech from Ghana on different tracks.
