Video Review: Tamy - Ndibereke

-
Talking about some of the best offerings for 2016, Tamy's The 18th Roller Coaster comes to mind, its just so well made, so refreshing, its a must have. Many people may not be acquainted with her a the moment but if you a fan of radio you have definitely came across the tracks Ndibereke and Sango. Did a review of the album a couple of months back: Album Review: Tamy - The 18th Rollercoaster. I was so delighted when I heard she was working on the visuals for my favourite track on her album, Ndibereke, then I also was afraid the video was not gonna do justice to the superb track and ruin the track for me.

The video was directed by Nico Abote. The went more for an artistic angle rather than a flashy angle and that was a good move. The setting and background was well chosen, Tamy's wadrobe was on point, its hip, unique and stylish, I feel it should have been the same for the other people in the video though for more effect. The directing is simple but nice, good job by Nico

The major problem I have with this video is with the dances, yes the dances are modern but they do not fit this type of sound at all. They should have taken a leaf from Hope Masike's videos for some tips on the dances, she nails those. 

Lastly the storyline is lacking, tried to follow it and failed. They should have put more effort on that.



In overall this is a nice video, it's Tamy's first so I'll give her a pass but they could have done much better, especially on the dances and wardrobe (for the others). The visuals did not ruin the track for me fortunately, pheeew!!

What are your thoughts on the video??

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...
