Have you ever heard a song and experienced a moment of the five Ws all at the same time? Who sanctioned this collabo? What made them do this song? When did this happen? Where exactly did this idea stem from? And most importantly, why this collabo? Well, I experienced that when Wakadinali dropped “Maprosoo” featuring Suzanna Owiyo
SONG CREDITS: Powered by Vibelab and Zozanation, the track was produced by HouseofDillie, audio recorded by BigbeatsAfriq, and the visuals directed and edited by Theblackjurist.
Ladies and gentlemen, in the track Maproso, two generational entities of the Kenyan music industry came together to create a song that I play to my grandchildren with tears in my eyes. Wakadinali need introduction but if this is your first rodeo, allow me to educate you a tad bit. Wakadinali is a Kenyan rap trio encompassing Domani Munga (Ramadhan Munga), Scar Mkadinali (Churchil Mandela), and Sewersyda (Salim “slim” Tangut).I don’t intend to indulge in their history and chemistry; I already did that here.
The original song was composed and performed by Mlasi Kasule.
Wakadinali pride themselves on versatility and uniqueness that have not been experienced in the East African hip-hop rap scene. This point is solidified by partnering with Suzanna Owiyo, a legendary Kenyan artist who blends traditional Kenyan music with borrowings from western sound, blending in to create timeless music. Ask any Kenyan, and they know at least a dozen Suzanna Owiyo bangers. She is a once-generation artist, so much so that for decades, no one has been able to replicate or threaten to replace her talents; the only artist drawing probable comparison would be Akoth Jumadi.
The wow factor, as it has always been with most songs in Wakadinali’s catalogue, was Domani Munga singing. This has only been witnessed a few times, including his solo track featuring SirBwoy, “Blow Me Kisses.”.
In “Maprosoo,” he embraces the beat with his unique voice, and his singing style elevates the song in ways even the original composer, Mlasi Kasule, would be proud of. His part being the opener of the song eases the listener to the song in a calming way. You can feel it is not the usual grime-rated Wakadinali style. Munga Ramadhani is responsible for a big percentage of their hit songs, which is said without intention to take away credit from Scar and Sewersydda.
Suzanna Owiyo takes over the singing from Domani Munga in her usual unique style, singing in Dholuo in such a splendid way that I pretend to understand. In all honesty, I have no idea what she is saying, but it is so seamless that my brain can sing it word for word. After every rap stint, she acts as the break from Wakadinali, transcending the listener to a different world, harmonies in the background taking you on a journey to Kassaye village in Nyakach near the lakeside city of Kisumu, where she was born.
A three-headed goat, Wakadinali, forms a thrice divided Yin, Yan, and Yen; if such a thing even exists, actually it doesn’t. I just created it for the purpose of this article.
I say this because Sewersydda completely changes the preset trajectory of the song by Suzanna Owiyo to his own style of rap, the tangut style. Somewhere in there he says, “In the beginning, God created Eve to deceive me,” a biblical allusion to the betrayal at the Garden of Eden. The icing on the cake is when Suzanna Owiyo takes over Sewersydda with her melodic vocals singing “Mapenzi Dwaro respect, Mapenzi Dwaro assurance,” which loosely translates to love needs respect and love needs assurance.
Scar Makadinali oils the song as the last verseman, every pun intended. His unique style of rap completes the puzzle of the song, with his usual controversial lines. At one point he says, “Nangoja maembe iive, wengine wanaikula mbichi na chumvi”, This line can mean insane things in the Kenyan/Nairobi context.Being a popular saying in Kenya, this is most likely it’s most probable intended meaning; again, I might be wrong. “Maembe” in this context being “girls,” “Kula maembe na chumvi” being sleeping with underage girls. Wakadinali hail from Eastlands, specifically Umoja; they always rap and create awareness of their environment. That said, teenage pregnancies are a common thing in Eastlands; hence, we need to raise awareness on that. In another line, Scar mkadinali says, “usiniambie shida zako zote ni juu ya dem ana duri.” Duri is the sheng word for posterior; he advises young men not to just riddle themselves with problems caused by women.
Churchill Mandela is the sing-along master, and in this spectacular masterpiece, he did not disappoint. He even infuses some lingala double entredre when he says, “mambo ya goshodo sidai, nliamua bolingo ni ya ngai.” Now class, please sit down and get this: in Sheng lingo, goshodo is a lady, bolingo means the male genitalia, and ngai is a vernacular (kikuyu) word for God. However in Lingala Bolingo means love, and ngai means me. This line in lingala would mean I don’t want women’s love; I have decided my love is for me,” but in Kenyanese it means “I don’t want women’s love; I have decided my love is for God.” Scar is a lyrical master.
Lesotho’s AJFawdySeven is steadily carving out a name for himself on the international stage. After a successful collaboration in August with Eswatini rapper Amarii on the track “Mamba,”AJFawdySeven now returns with a feature on “IF IT EVER DROPS,” the latest release by America and Brooklyn’s own 97otis. This isn’t their first partnership; the two previously joined forces on “When Birds Fly,” released in March 2024, a song that underscored their seamless, unforced artistic chemistry.
Listen to “When Birds Fly” here
“IF IT EVER DROPS” is an alternative rap piece distinguished by its cool, laid-back production and a subtle, minimalist instrumentation that foregrounds the raw lyricism and storytelling of both rappers. The track’s production is sparse yet emotionally resonant, creating a rich auditory experience for listeners. With its sangfroid ambiance and undercurrents of jazz and soul, the song is a perfect fit for the underground rap scene, emanating a mellow, contemplative vibe.
On this song, AJFawdySeven primarily delivers his verse in English, delving into narratives of his childhood and life experiences, candidly juxtaposing moments of light and shadow. He also brings a combative energy, challenging fellow rappers to establish a solid body of work before stepping into the ring with him. Despite the predominantly English lyrics, AJFawdySeven remains firmly anchored in his cultural roots, infusing his verse with lines in Sotho, his native tongue.

A rising luminary from the soil of Lesotho, AJFawdySeven recently marked a milestone with 1,000 streams for his single “RAGNARÖK,” released in February this year. His ability to traverse a spectrum of styles—from introspective, thought-provoking lyrics to vibrant, melodic tunes and alternative lo-fi sounds—cements his status as an artist to watch in the African rap landscape.
Kenyan Versatile Artist King Kerby releases a new single “Bad Bee” featuring “Big Yasa” on Friday, 21st September 2024. The collaboration is off his upcoming studio album “KSHS,” dropping on 27th September 2024. This is barely weeks after Big Yasa and outfit Mad Clan released their own album “MAD CLAN” with Spinx Mafia.

The KSHS album represents growth on both a personal and musical level. After Saba, it entails crossing boundaries with production once more, but this time it connects Kenya, Los Angeles, and Russia. Kerby’s aura, audaciousness, and that of young Kenyan musicians are both demonstrated in KSHS. The innovative rapper, who hails from the artist-ridden hood of South C in Nairobi, continues with his consistent intention of elevating the East African hip-hop scene through an authentic and artistic style of rap.Drawing inspiration from Esir, Krupt, and other South Legends, King Kerby will be an unstoppable star.
Following up his lead single “Athlete,” released on 24th August 2024, King Kerby teamed up with number eight finest Big Yasa for “Bad Bee.”. With Kibera on his back, Big Yasa makes the song a parable of two worlds yet so intertwined to produce a masterpiece.
The theme of “Bad Bee” is honoring the kind of lady who draws attention for her depth and unquestionable presence as well as her appearance.This is a vibrant, emotionally charged audio experience that presents a novel fantasy perspective on attraction, emotions, and love. Alongside Big Yasa, whose contribution gives the song an unstoppable flare. Sharp and captivating, Big Yasa’s flow adds a quick energy boost that perfectly balances with Kerby’s melodic delivery.
In his musical journey that started as early as 2016, King Kerby prides his music authenticity in not following the normal Nairobi artistry of alcohol clubbing and drug indulgence. Veering off popular belief hip-hop themes like materialism, narcissism, and the classic “rags to riches” narrative and self-limiting notions about money that come from the poverty mindset ingrained in common Kenyans. His artistry is centered on health, empowerment, and self-determination.
This is that Phineas and Ferb, Tom and Jerry, Ghost and Tommy Eagan kind of combination, bringing two artists on different levels, backgrounds, and artistic approaches to produce a gem. Keep an eye out for this cassette aside from this one single, “Bad Bee.” Let’s push Kenyan music globally; the world needs to hear us.

On September 6, 2024, ZRI (pronounced Zuu-Ree) released his latest single, “Mud,” featuring LaCabra and Blue Pappi, members of the hip-hop collective “The Qwellers.” This release follows a string of recent projects by the Pretoria-based R&B and alternative rap artist, including his mixtape “Thank God For The Sun”, which dropped in May, and his two-track single “Lehakwe”, released in late July. The release of “Mud” sets the stage for his upcoming project, “Forever, Green in Me”, slated for release this Friday, 13th September.
Forever, Green In Me Tracklist
“Mud” explores the challenges faced by township communities—stories that are often overlooked and people who are frequently marginalized. This theme is deeply relatable, especially in South Africa, where many live in informal settlements. You might be familiar with the statement “I come from the mud,” a statement, referring to the dusty, unpaved roads that are emblematic of township life and struggles. This statement alone summarizes the main ethos of the song, which is also captured in its opening moments, with a conversation between two township residents in “Ispitori,” a slang spoken in Pretoria’s townships. This exchange immediately paints a vivid picture of township life: imagine two locals playing cards or hanging out at a neighborhood store, sharing a lively, humorous chat. Through this, ZRI pays reverence to his birthplace and other South African townships.
Mud by ZRI, LaCabra and Blue Pappi
Produced by Scarface Panda, “Mud” is rooted in alternative hip-hop with jazzy, mellow soundscapes. The song serves as a bridge between the thriving hip-hop scenes of Pretoria and Durban, enriched by LaCabra and Blue Pappi’s contributions in Zulu. Each artist offers a unique perspective on township life, marked by hardship, crime, and encounters with police violence. While all the rappers express gratitude for escaping such circumstances, they remain committed to remembering the neighbourhoods that shaped them.
ZRI is building a promising career, and his achievements reflect his consistent growth. His previous release, “Thank God For The Sun”, surpassed 100,000 streams in its first week and has since reached 250,000 streams, as announced by the artist on Instagram. His single “Ngozi” topped the 5FM radio charts. ZRI has collaborated with numerous South African artists, such as The Big Hash on “That’s Wassup” from “Heartbreak Hotel”, Archi on “Bonez” from the “Sentimental Tones” extended play , and artists like ImaniBasquait and Roho on “Thank God For The Sun”. He has also teamed up with producers like Steveisfrench, MichaelTouy, BikoMaq, Trigga Nasty, and Scarface Panda, all of whom have brought a diverse range of sounds to his music. These accomplishments make ZRI an artist to watch as his career continues to unfold.

Undoubtedly, Blue Pappi is a rare gem, with talent so unique it feels almost generational. His ascent to stardom has been nothing short of mesmerizing. Hailing from Ladysmith in KwaZulu Natal, he is the epitome of a multifaceted artist—one whose craft defies easy categorization or confinement. Is he a rapper, a singer, or something beyond? I still can’t quite put him into any one box, which speaks to the depth and range of his artistry.
My first encounter with his music was through Horid The Messiah’s“INKUNZI,” where Blue Pappi made a guest appearance that left me utterly captivated. Intrigued, I immersed myself in his discography, beginning with his EP, “A Voice Like A Sequined Razor Blade”, where the standout track “OH NO!” first caught my ear. Not long after, he released “Mona Lisa,” a single featuring LaCabra and Lowfeye, which remains a personal favorite—perhaps not coincidentally, as it dropped on my birthday, November 4th. From there, I took notice of his work, particularly his compelling verse on LaCabra’s hit single “Dangerous,” featuring Sastii. That infectious trap anthem instantly pulled me deeper into his orbit, turning me into a Qweller super fan.
“Mona Lisa” by Blue Pappi, LaCabra & Lowfeye
In 2024, Blue Pappi continued to affirm his prowess, releasing a string of singles, including “Ekhaya” in January, and “Nomalizo,” in March, where he joined forces with fellow Qwellers: LaCabra,Lowfeye, and JustMango. His collaborations are vast and varied, including a memorable verse on Sjava’s Gold-certified love song “Typhoon.” The line crafted by Blue Pappi on the song “Umoya wakho ngathi lwandle ntambama” lingers with me each time I hear it, likening a lover’s aura to the serene embrace of the sea at dusk—proof positive that Zulu rizz is unparalleled. He has also made notable contributions to Lowfeye’s “Mfana kaMakhulu” project, gracing both the titular track “Mfana KaMakhulu” and “Indawo.”

Just last week, on September 6th, uMfana Ohlaza unveiled his latest offering, “Took Me For A Nai.” It’s a brief, two-minute piece of ethereal beauty that frustrates as much as it enchants, due to its brief length, leaving me yearning for more. Produced by Lucent.exe, the track finds Blue Pappi’s voice floating over a melancholic chord progression that conjures a deeply soulful atmosphere. A saxophone, delicately draped over the beginning and end, enhances the hauntingly soothing quality of his vocals, crafting an ambiance that invites a sort of blissful escape. The song feels like a dreamscape, something to be experienced with closed eyes, an invitation to drift away from reality.
“Took Me For A Nai” by Blue Pappi
In “Took Me For A Nai,”Blue Pappi flawlessly marries contemporary influences with traditional Zulu and Afropop soundscapes, staying true to his roots. He stays true to the sound that best showcases his talents, weaving his voice through soulful beats and melodies proving that he was indeed right when he said “Mfana Ohlaza yinkinga ngeMelody” on LaCabra’s“Dangerous”. The backing voices that emerge just before the chorus imbue the song with a sense of presence and immediacy, as though the listener is right there in the studio, feeling every note as it is born. Within this track, Blue Pappi celebrates both his artistry and his journey, reflecting on his rise from the lowest valleys to the pinnacle of his potential. He sings predominantly in Zulu, peppered with dashes of English, affirming his place as an artist who honors where he comes from while bravely navigating where he is headed.
With “Took Me For A Nai” swiftly becoming a fan favorite, having garnered about 20,000 Spotify streams in just five days, it’s clear that Blue Pappi is on a path to greatness. Deeply rooted in authentic Zulu music while drawing on hip-hop, Afropop, and R&B influences, his idiosyncratic sound is a fusion of genres that retains an unmistakably African authenticity. His warm, honey-toned voice—both in its time and timeless—is rich with soul, and his emotive delivery makes his music a comforting haven for listeners. Blue Pappi’s tenacity and versatility leave me eagerly awaiting the next dimensions of his talent that he will reveal and hopefully a new project.
In the ever-evolving landscape of Nigerian music, where new sounds and voices emerge with unparalleled vibrancy, Samuel Ede Ogaba, better known by his stage name OG Mage, has carved out a significant niche. Hailing from Benue State and raised in the bustling streets of Lagos, OG Mage’s journey from humble beginnings to becoming a dominant force in Abuja’s music scene is nothing short of inspiring. His story is one of passion, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to his craft.
The Genesis: A Lagos-Born Dreamer
Born on August 25th, 1995, OG Mage’s early years were shaped by the eclectic sounds of Lagos, a city known for its rich cultural diversity and musical heritage. Influenced by rap legends like Eminem and Kendrick Lamar, his love for hip-hop began as a young boy, singing along to his favorite tracks with such fervor that it was as if he had penned the lyrics himself. This early fascination with music eventually led him to start writing his own songs, laying the foundation for what would become a flourishing career.
While studying Information and Media Technology at the Federal University of Technology in Minna, OG Mage took his first significant step into the music world by joining the rap group WWJD’s “IHN.” This experience honed his skills and gave him a taste of the collaborative spirit that would later define much of his work.
The Abuja Era: A New Beginning
In 2021, OG Mage made a pivotal move to Abuja, a decision that marked the true beginning of his professional music career. This transition to Nigeria’s capital wasn’t just a geographical shift; it symbolized his readiness to take his music to the next level. Abuja, with its growing music scene, provided the perfect backdrop for OG Mage to refine his sound and expand his reach.
Musical Evolution: A Symphony of Influence
OG Mage’s music is a complex symphony that draws from his life experiences and the dynamic world around him. Rooted in the classic 90s hip-hop he grew up with, his sound also incorporates the vibrant beats of modern Afrobeats, creating a unique blend that is both nostalgic and contemporary. His debut project, Alter Ego, was a testament to his ability to blend genres, combining elements of hip-hop, Afrobeat, and alternative sounds into a cohesive whole.
But it’s his latest release, Up To No Good, that truly showcases OG Mage’s evolution as an artist. The seven-track EP features collaborations with stars like Illbliss and Mannie Tseayo and takes listeners on a journey through a rich tapestry of sounds and stories. Each track is meticulously crafted, with OG Mage’s lyrical prowess shining through in every line.
A Lyrical Sorcerer: Crafting Magic with Words
OG Mage doesn’t just see himself as a musician; he views himself as a lyrical sorcerer, a title he embraces fully. “A ‘mage’ is a ‘sorcerer,’ and since I identify as the lyrical sorcerer, it seems like a fitting name,” he once explained in an interview. His creative process is as dynamic as his music, often beginning with a spark of inspiration that he develops into fully-fledged tracks. Whether it’s a million-dollar hook or a complete song that comes to him in a moment of clarity, OG Mage’s ability to turn ideas into music is nothing short of magical.
His track “Owe Dem Money” is a perfect example of this process in action. Born out of a casual jam session with friends, the song’s chorus came to him almost out of nowhere, and with the help of his collaborator Oluwaf3mi and producer Mon Lee, it became a standout track that resonates with fans.
Beyond Music: A Cultural Bridge
OG Mage’s impact extends beyond just music. He sees himself as a cultural bridge, fusing the rhythms of Afrobeats with the lyrical depth of hip-hop to create a sound that transcends borders. His music is not just entertainment; it’s a global expedition, a journey that invites listeners from all walks of life to connect with the universal language of music.
As he continues to push the boundaries of his artistry, OG Mage remains committed to creating music that is both authentic and emotionally resonant. His upcoming projects, including a new body of work developed at a writing camp in the United Kingdom, promise to further cement his status as one of Nigeria’s most innovative and influential artists.
Conclusion: The Rise of a Superstar
OG Mage’s rise from the streets of Lagos to the forefront of Abuja’s music scene is a story of determination, talent, and an unyielding passion for music. As he continues to grow and evolve, there’s no doubt that OG Mage is on a path to becoming a true superstar, not just in Abuja, but on the global stage. His journey is a reminder that with the right blend of skill, creativity, and perseverance, dreams can indeed become reality.
