Lyrics
For this jam they take turns to express their frustration and justify their decision to binge drink. They struggle with drunk partners, ladies with sharp tongues and domestic violence.
In this case highlighting what some men fear to talk about domestic violence against men.
Typical struggles in most African families. The vocals of the two artists are just a perfect match.
Raha zako tu ni kunichanganya kichwa mama
Mapenzi si maoenzi ni fujo tu kila siku
Ni kama tu tunacheza mchezo wa paka na panya
Hebu nikuulize ni kitu gani mami
Unapata ukinitesa baby
Hebu nipe majibu, unasaidikaje kila mara ukiona machozi zangu zikitiririka kama mtoto mdogo
Well, these two have got mega marital issues that they have to deal with especially once they sober up from the drink
Set up in the domestic situation we get a glimpse of the two respective families. Furthermore, it gets even funnier when MB Data is the one who saves Kidum from being beaten black and blue by his wife. Kidum runs off to safety like a child saved from a huge fight.
The video is of good quality and does a good job in helping us relate to the song better.For one we give credit where is due their Swahili bis impeccable.
The song is amazing, evident from the positive comments of the contented fans.
Rating 8/10
