My name is Basthma, I'm a Dj/Producer in Nairobi, Kenya. I wanted to embark on an 8 Month Creative Challenge where I create and release a song every week for 8 months straight starting 1st Nov. Here is a compilation of all the music I shall release through out this challenge.

Lyrics

Tunaelekea wapi
Where are we going

Nieleze bayana
Explain to me clearly

Sitaki kuwa siri
I don't want to be a secret

Nitajituma tuma
I will send myself

Kokote utakako
Anywhere you want 

Ukisema twaenda
When you say, we'll go

Niko tayari
I'm ready

Subira ninayo
I have patience

Basi tenda
then do it

Tuende nayo hivyo hivyo
Lets go with the flow

Washa
Ignite

Pepeta
fan

Hitaji
need

Nipe tu mdogo mdogo
Give it to me little by little

Lyrics:
Yeah 
Can't maintain
Can't
Said, Can't maintain
Siezi maintain 
Wallahi siezi maintain
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
I'm fried like a plantain
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain

I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
Fried like a plantain
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
Fried like a plantain  
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't
Zimeshika sana, can't

Room look like a sauna again
Room look like a sauna
I can't 

I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana 
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain 
I can't maintain 
Zimeshika sana, can't maintain 
Fried like a plantain
Zimeshika sana, can't

Maintain

Lyrics: 

Check, check, check
Nawa check, check, check
Mki blek, blek, blek
Off that henn, henn, henn
(Ati weh msee umesema?)
Na nyi ni ma kuku porno 

If you smell the loud basi funga maskio 
Nataka kupanda ngazi na sishuki mbio
Pole Afande just lighting a few 
Nikule crisps niki watch cartoon

Choma mpaka uchome picha
Baadaye na hizo makesi, weh joint chunisha 
Ma KC pia zinaeza chachisha 
Ukisleki buda seti itaisha 
Sai kaa haijawaka labda lighter inakosa
Chilli usio ila, niki washa ni makosa? 
Seems everything just going South, Ramaphosa 
Ukweli ni kaa si hizi joint ni ka quarter
'Cause I'm tryna get high shosho ruka 
Usiulize swali mingi kaa shash inarusha 
Juu kaa Miguna staboeka 
Kwa mfuko ni trees nimebeba Arboretum
Kama rastaman, me hu burn up the Shashamane

If you smell the loud basi funga mas'kio 
Nataka kupanda ngazi na sishuki mbio 
Pole Afande just lighting a few 
Nikule crips niki watch cartoon 
If you smell the loud basi funga mas'kio 
Nataka kupanda ngazi na sishuki mbio 
Pole Afande just lighting a few 
Nikule crips niki watch cartoon

Burn up the flora 
Gin na ukora
Turn up ujinga, pigwa bakora
Na zimeshika 
You can tell from my aura 
Staki vita niki vuta vitu, please stay in order
Nimewasha ka joint kangu ka supuu
Zimeshika ni kaa nimerogwa na ma voodoo 
Juu inafanya nifloat tu kama maji 
Hadi ghasia flani alete ma utiaji
Told them I'm tryna get high shosho ruka
Usiulize swali mingi hio ni shash inarusha
Safisha rada niki washa udi 
Nyi ni talking toka rasa, smoking grade Daudi
Kama rastaman, me hu burn up the Shashamane
Kama Shappaman, bud fresh haijakauka sana

If you smell the loud basi funga mas'kio 
Nataka kupanda ngazi na sishuki mbio
Pole Afande just lighting a few
Nikule crips niki watch cartoon
If you smell the loud basi funga mas'kio 
Nataka kupanda ngazi na sishuki mbio
Si pole nani, just lighting a few
Nikule crips niki watch cartoon
