Track Review: Nutty O - Meditation

-
Nutty O Di Bwoy had a brilliant debut year in 2015. At the beginning of this year judging by the promise and growth he had showed the in 2015 I included him among the 10 artists to watch out for in 2016. Dancehall artists release a lot of tracks, some even release weekly so its hard to keep up but a few tracks among the many released will get my attention and this track Meditation is one of those
tracks. Nutty O released the conscious track African Girl (African Girl Review)in January and it earned the number 2  spot among the top tracks of that month (Top Tracks of January), now he is back with a new jam. Loved African Girl, so i'm anxious to see how this new track fares??


The track was produced at his record label Kenako Studios. Love love the instrumental. Its an uptempo reggae instrumental and its sounding fantastic. This instrumental will definitely stand out among the generic local riddims and can stand its own pitted against the top Jamaican riddims. Love the crowd sample used at the beginning, it was a good touch. The song is very audible. Superb work from the production team.

Nutty O is saying he requires some herbs for ability extension, motivation and meditation. Am not a smoker myself and I don't support smoking but this is a well crafted track. Despite suggesting herbs to help ease the mental pressures of life he is urging the ghetto youths rise up and take control of the situations. As Zimbos we are facing many challenges in our day to day lives and at the end of the day we experience a lot of pressure hence there is need for a release. Good message but the method is debatable. Its a well structured and thought of track.

Nutty O laced the track with his now signature vibe. He put in a great performance and managed to complement the awesome instrumental well.  Solid Track.

Listen and Enjoy The track:

In overall this is a brilliant track. However Zimbos are more inclined towards the generic sungura inspired kind of dancehall so this track may not get as much attention as it deserves but it remains a brilliant jam.

What are your thoughts on the track???

Mixtape Review : Brythreesixty - Purple Mars

-
Image
Brythreesixty has finally released his much publicized Purple Mars Mixtape. 2016 is more like a do or die year for him. He has to show if he can compete with the best and in a year dubbed by many as the Year of Zim Hip Hop he is gonna have to put in more work than before. So how does Purple Mars fare?? Will be reviewing my top 4 tracks from the Purple Mars Mixtape and will leave  the others for you the fans and readers to rate!! God Feeling ( Sikelela ) ft J.S.K.X.X.V.I The first thing you hear is the nice laid instrumental which am loving. God Feeling is about feeling like a boss regardless of the current challenges and putting your trust in God. Success starts from within and this track is about having a winner's mentality. In terms of the verses both the guys were in beast mode and they gave superb verses. Was enjoying the track till the last Nkosi Sikelela chant in the end, it sounded as if it's not at the same wave length as the rest of the track, better mixing
