I hit up Nah Eeto just after my first LP came out in 2018 because I really liked what I had been hearing of hers on Blah records and wanted to do more vocal stuff. I was happy she picked this beat because it was quite bugged out and I thought it fit nice. I warped the vocals a lot with some hardware, tried to bug it out more. Its a bit marching band eh, with early 80s chorus bass guitar. She's talking in Kenyan about being a commander, a boss. Not your mama.
lyrics
Didn't you know bro I'm a commander
Didn't you know bro I'm not your mama
I don't wear a kanga I carry a machete
No i'm not your mum
You didn't know no
But I'm a commander
And yup I catch the money
From london to langata
Watch them gawk
You don't even have credit on your phone
Don't worry I send you some
Didn't you know bro I'm a commander
Didn't you know bro I'm not your mama
I don't wear a kanga I carry a machete
Your face drier than the savannah
No worries i'm here to roast you like a cassava
And yea I know you can't shut up
But it dont matter cos thats what I'm counting on
Tell em I'm on on a bus to malaba
Looking sweg in slides
I know I rock your world
Yeah I got your number
Yeah I got your number
Yeah I know I rock your world
These three songs from JV & Palf deliver jittery, hyperactive dance music with split-second vocal samples an bass-heavy beats. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 4, 2018
