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???

Album Review: Asaph - Kingsvilla 2

Zim Hip Hop is a polarizing genre, it has its few loyal fans then for others its nearly non existent. For me most of the tracks are generic and they don't do it for me that much but now and then there comes an artist that just wows me and restores my hope in local hip hop. Asaph is one such artist, he announced his arrival with the Kingsvilla Album last year and got some heads turning. He then went on to release the follow up Kingsvilla2 and this time I decided to give myself a chance to listen to the album. After a couple of listens I was keen on making a review of the album, and get to share the project with fellow Zimbos. So ya today will be giving my thoughts on the album. The album contains 13 tracks and will be giving a track by track review . 1. City Hall Benches "Tamara voice note saying how much he misses his man Asaph and how much she is looking forward to seeing him..." This is a track for the ambitious and dreamers.  Asaph does not want to remain...
