The song titled Bado, which is a Swahili word that means ‘not yet’, talks about not giving up even when things seem like they’ve hit a dead-end.
It’s a prayer to God to give you strength to face the challenges that are coming your way when you are on the verge of giving up.
Bahati and Denno are asking God to remind remind all of us that although things are difficult at the moment, there’ll be light at the end of the tunnel i.e. all hope is not lost. At least not yet.
There are several reasons why I love this song. Firstly, it’s the fact that it carries a powerful message, if you are going through a difficult time then I am sure this song will uplift you because it tells you that God is with you.
The second reason is that Bahati and Denno’s voices are really on point. I know you will agree with me after listening to this jam. The hook stuck the first time I heard it.
Lastly, the beat and video concept are also great. Although this song is kind of ‘sad’, the beat is funky and it still gives off a good vibe as you listen to it.
The video helped to reinforce the message in the song by showing people who were going through difficult times yet they remain assured that God has not forgotten them.
Watch Bado below and tell us what you think.
