Ugandan conscious rapper Ecko Bazz is somewhat of a unique phenomenon exploding onto the Eastern Africa hip hop, grime scene, yet spreading his ferocious sound straight out of the continent. Hyper-adrenalized, Ecko Bazz's greatest force is the intense and delirious artistic style. A striking feature are definitely the lyrics screamed in Luganda, touching on everything from socio- political frustration, violence and religion to the destitution and poverty in Uganda ghettos.  Wild, visceral and unadulterated, no one has sounded quite like him. Despite you might not call it accessible, without doubt his music is some of the most dynamic and surreal being released today. 

His latest acclaimed and second Hakuna Kulala EP Kyusa Embela with producer pq came out in 2019 following up his 2018 hardcore techno banger Tuli Banyo feat. Biga Yut, production pq and a rave edit by newcomer Ekhe. (And big-upped by Aphex Twin on his recent North American tour, and Death Grips.) His debut full-lenght album is to be released on Hakuna Kulala in early 2022. Also upcoming are his collaborative projects with producers Still (PAN/Hakuna Kulala) and Aya/Loft (Hyperdub).

Gidigidi ka Makhelwane by Phelimuncasi (official video)

youtu.be/Gx82nlNf6Xo 


Opening track 'Gidigidi ka Makhelwane' erupts in a fizz of beatbox percussion that loops noisily alongside Makan Nana, Khera and Malathon's stirring vocals, delivered in their local isiZulu tongue. Metal Preyers's process is relatively restrained, offering Phelimuncasi the space to work their rousing magic unimpeded and adding punctuation where necessary. But when he takes more of a destructive role, it's just as impressive: on 'Gqom slowgen Chant', he corrupts his rhythm into a ritualistic pulse, letting the trio's words melt into metallic clicks and nauseous atmospheres.

Elsewhere on 'Mgiligi wableka', Phelimuncasi's words create a rousing rhythm against a low-n-slow gqom thud from Metal Preyers, and on 'Coffin Roller' he brings to mind '80s video nasty soundtracks, toying with analog synth sequences against Makan Nana, Khera and Malathon's distant chants. 'Like A Corpse' might be the album's most hollowed-out banger, turning the beat into a chopped 'n screwed drag that scrapes clamorously against Phelimuncasi's gurgling raps. Needless to say, there's nothing else like this.
