Brand New: Jangwa – Lyrical assassins Feat. Wenyeji and Shamir
I enjoy great relationships with the Lyrical Assassins crew – Calvo and crew sit on my gmail like neighbors and relatives in your digz. However I have no particular bias to their music, when they produce hot shit I tell them, when they produce whack shit I tell them some tracks make it on to the site and some just don’t. I respect our relationship because its based on honesty – and they understand my opinions are just my opinions. Sure enough they might influence a few people to react differently but essentially I normally have plenty of DJ’s call me out and tell me that I was wrong.
This track is HARDCORE – its titled Jangwa (Jungle) you get the essence of the jungle the forest kinda – the sounds in the background and some of the bottle shakers and other instruments are very distinctive. I know the song is a metaphor of sorts, because it talks about the real jungle – life! But playing around the African Jungle (Forest) animals and other elements that depict the continent is sheer genius. I am not sure if this is a track I will play everyday. Its a song I wont mind listening to and meditating on the lyrics (I guess thats why they call themselves Lyrical Assassins). The tracks features Wenyeji and Shamir – its an interesting collabo – I’ll let y’all be the judges.. enjoy!

This is such a random song that I got from Wenyeji a while back, I didn’t think much about it truly at the time. To be honest i don’t really dont think much about it today. But there are some hardcore JuaCali fans and some hardcore Wenyeji fans that have been bugging me out to post more material so I thought I would share this track today.
The collaboration feels like forced partnership, Jua Cali definitely delivered the right hook and the left punch and the jab, but the beat doesn’t keep me wanting to listen to the entire track. Wenyeji have other interesting songs, but to me I wouldn’t say this is one of their best tracks. However to all their fans, here is some new music from Wenyeji (not so new but new in GetMziki terms)
