SuD 249

Introducing Kamal Keila: Kamal is a Sudanese singer active since the late 1960s (الترجمة العربية أسفله). He incorporated a wide range of influences from afro beat to funk to his often very political songs. He recorded both in Arabic and English. We just signed him to Habibi Funk this week and will release a full album of unreleased music later this year. "Agricultural Revolution" is taken straight off a master tape Kamal found in his basement. Shout of to Yasir (AFRODUB) and Larissa for the help. نقدم لكم كمال كيلا: كمال مطرب سوداني بدأ رحلته الموسيقية منذ أواخر الستينات. 
 .لقد دمج انواع موسيقى كثيرة ومتنوعة كالفانك والأنغام اللإفريقية مع أغانيه ذات الطابع السياسي. سجل موسيقته باللغتين الانجليزية والعربية . هذا الأسبوع، قمنا بالتعاقد معه لاصدار ألبوم يضم أغانيه الغير منشورة وسوف يتم اطلاقه نهاية هذا العام. الأغنية "ثورة زراعية" مأخوذة من شريط وجده كمال في قبو منزله.

Verse 1:
I've been chilling bejay
Popping pills looking at the sky
She says I've been on it long time
She says I've been on it long time
She says I've been on it long time
But you know how this shit goes
I'm screaming 249 on these hoes

Text starting with Hi
She like whatchu up to?
Some gablin and I'm rolling up a blunt too
Up in Cairo, ducking five O still getting high tho
wish that you could come through,

Its rotation baby
We can’t seem to keep up a conversation lately
Woman just look at all the days you wasted
We could have been something but you played it safely
And I can't blame you baby, hold it down if you really down
Blow a pound if you feeling down
Shawty, slow it down you ain't really down

Pre-hook :
I've been bejay
It's been time
Still drinking from the Nile
Still a young nigga from the 2 4 9
Pull up a middle finger cuz the crew don't mind

 Hook:
249, young nigga from the 249
I can love you like the 249
What u know about the Su 49

Verse 2:
And I stay reppin the O town
187 nigga fuck is you talking bout
Come to my city give you sum to smoke now
Always get love when I'm shouting my zouls out

But I see fake niggas trynna be homies
Talking bout Oh man green fire emojis!
No body better than Tation
I clear the competition like my notifications

Pre-hook :
I've been bejay
It's been time
Still drinking from the Nile
Still a young nigga from the 2 4 9
Pull up a middle finger cuz the crew don't mind
(Guitar Solo)
Bridge:
When I read your messages and don't reply
I ain't trynna cause tension girl I'm only high
But woman if you won't decide
How the fuck am I suppose to leave these hoes behind

Truth is I don't need these hoes
Wrong religion I don't even believe in these hoes
Large font bitches I can read these hoes
Say the word and I'll shift delete these hoes

And I'll love you like the 249

roTation - 249 We Almost Lost It (Prod. By Thirdless)

Pre Order: https://habibifunkrecords.bandcamp.com/album/habibi-funk-007-an-eclectic-selection-of-music-from-the-arab-world

"About a year ago we started talking to Sharhabeel, one of our favorite Sudanese musicians, with the help of his son and our colleague in Khartoum, Larissa, about re-releasing some of his old music. I had never been to Sudan before and despite some great help in making the release happen we figured it would be a good idea to actually visit Sudan and finalize the release with Sharhabeel. In preparation of the trip I started to dig deeper into Sudanese music trying to identify artists and sounds to dive into. On Youtube I found a musical blog dedicated to Sudanese jazz bands run by Amin Rabih (who is a music researcher, currently writing a book on the history of jazz music in Sudan) and Yassir Awad. The Sudanese interpretation of jazz is fairly different to the Western but it opened up a new world for me of around a dozen bands and singers that I wanted to learn more about. Luckily Yassir, a Sudanese IT expert living in Khartoum, was more than happy to help me prepare my trip and learn about the musical scene of the nation’s capital in the 1970s. Kamal Keila was a name that came up here and there, coined the James Brown or Fela Kuti of Sudan. When I asked Yassir about him he said that he has extended family ties with him and that he could set up a meeting. We spent an afternoon in Kamal’s living room somewhere in the dusty outskirts of Khartoum. In our conversation it turned out that even though his career started in the 1960s, he had never released a record on vinyl and that (apart from one album which still remains to be found, he can’t remember about a cassette tape release either). He did however record sessions for Sudanese radio.
In Sudan the radio stations were not allowed to play the recordings produced by music labels on air, therefore they had their own studios and invited musicians to record music for their program. In most cases the musicians would not receive a copy of the recordings out of fear that they would release the music themselves. But luckily Kamal Keila had gotten his hands on two sessions and had kept those two studio reels all these years. Both ta- pes were in the most horrible condition with mold everywhere and obvious signs that they had gotten very wet at some point. But to our surprise they played very well. Each included five tracks. One with English lyrics and another with Arabic ones. Musically you can hear the influence of neighboring Ethiopia much more than on other Sudanese recordings of the time, as well as references to Fela and American funk and soul. His lyrics, at least when he sings in English, which indicates more freedom from censorship, are very political. A brave statement in the constitutional climate of Sudan of the last decades, preaching for the unity of Sudan and peace between Muslims and Christians. Be on the look out for the full Kamal Keila album later this year, from whom we also licenses the music from."

LYRICS

(verse 1 : TooDope)
Okay I'm riding through the city
Got my niggas with me 
And the city is Khartoum
But we call it sin city
Cuz we in this bitch litty
Reppin' that 250 
Minus one if u get me 
Flow dumb when I hit it 
Fire in my lungs 
Shoot it out my tongue
When I spit it
Run when a nigga 
Finna get some 
Don't get in the way son
Or u gonna get done 
dirty ... Sip that
Up 24/7 but I smoke 30 

And u know how I like'em
Hair curly 
The waist curvy 
The smile pearly
The brain nerdy 
Niggas on Twitter acting thirsty
She know they ain't worthy 
You see that bad birdie 
Only tweet tweet for me 
Even though 
We ain't speak in a week Shawty 
Gotta keep it low key
I ain't tryna get took 
in the back of a loory
Sorry I ain't sorry 
Cuz she know...

(Bridge : TooDope)
She know how it go down
Ro & the NuSlang reppin O town
And they ain't never switched up
Flippter got shafftat Bahry with their fist up
And when it come to the 1 8 3
Ain't nobody gonna rep this city 
Better than me
But when it come to the 1 8 3
Ain't nobody gonna rep this city 
Better than me... And my niggas.

(Hook: roTation)
Say my niggas in the O-Town, they sing it
My niggas in the B-Town, they sing it
My niggas in the K-Town they can sing it
Sing it...
Say I do it for the city

(Verse 2)
Mad with the rap
Mac on Banat Nas
Fast with the cash
Back with the facts
Ana?
Massive attack
When I rhyme its a wrap
When you rap its a crime
If she fine imma slide
If I talk then she mine
I'm way ahead of the game 
Y'all niggas left behind
I'm too lit 
That's why all these haters dumb blind
I told my mama 
You will live to see your son shine
And until your son's set
I gotta grind, I gotta get mine

And I'm...
Smooth with moves baby u can catch the dab quick
She been here all day & I ain't mad cuz she mad thick
& You wont see us out cuz we lowkey getting mad lit
I took the C H out, now I call her my bad Bit

(Bridge : TooDope)
& She know how it go down
Ro & the NuSlang reppin O town
And they ain't never switched up
Flippter got shafftat Bahry with their fist up
And when it come to the 1 8 3
Ain't nobody gonna rep this city 
Better than me
But when it come to the 1 8 3
Ain't nobody gonna rep this city 
Better than me... And my niggas

(Hook: roTation) (x2)
Say my niggas in the O-Town, they sing it
My niggas in the B-Town, they sing it
My niggas in the K-Town they can sing it
Sing it...
Say I do it for my city (x4)

Do it for the... 249
(Verse 3 : TooDope)
Okay back up in the thing like I never left
Back up in your dame like it ain't a thing 
& She love it when I do my thing
You won't admit it but you love it when I do my thing
UGHH
They mad cuz the illest on the come up a new comer 
And I'm raking up them commas
Not talking 'bout the money 
I am talking 'bout the numbers
I am talking 'bout that hunna

I heard u hatin' Lamma Jeet through
Don't make me make my ninjas
Hit you with a Jutsu
Cut from a heavy clothes 
All you fuck niggas see through

Freestyle in The Car | Flippter & S.B | فريستايل في الحديده | فلبتر وإس بي

Before we the full album drops next Friday we’re happy to drop the 4th track off The Scorpions & Saif Abu Bakr’s album „Jazz, Jazz, Jazz“ called "Saat Alfarah ساعة الفرح“. It’s actually a personal favorite of mine off the album, then again picking favorites on this album is a hard task. Have a listen and hear for yourself.

Vinyl + Digital

The Scorpions & Saif Abu Bakr - Saat Alfarah ساعة الفرح

Manal bdreldeen - منال بدر الدين كفاية مزاح

Samha - Lil Freeny Ft. Maman

Sharhabil Ahmed - El Bambi (Habibi Funk 013)

Habibi Funk's 13th release by Sharhabil Ahmed, the actual King of Sudanese Jazz (he actually won that title in a competition in the early 1970s). Sonically it sounds very different from what Jazz is understood to sound like outside of Sudan. It's an incredible unique mix of rock&roll, funk, surf, traditional sudanese music and influences from Congolese sounds.
