A Pharisee's Perspective

This is the first song I EVER got into a booth and recorded  :)Waay back in 2003, at Greensteds School, where I was a music scholarship student. The chorus has more singers in it, part of the school choir :D We had such a good team! This song became the title track to our first school album, Destiny :D (I was 14) Mr. Nick Mwashimba, my awesome high school music teacher, wrote most of it and I helped out some :) My eldest brother, Johnny, features on this track, playing the lead guitar :) This is the only track I have with him. :') He was an amazing musician!! #ForeverAnInspiration #TenYearsSince #MissYouSo #SeeYouSomeday #LoveYouAlways #XOXO

Destiny (2003)

This song was recorded in the heyday of FruityLoops :D Writen specifically for Big Brother Africa, when the Big Brother house was in Kenya, and they did a contest for all the countries involved to write, record and send them a 'theme song'. (I don't remember the year lol but I remember some of the BBA contestants' names of that season..Gaetano, Abby, Msechu.. weird way to remember, I know lol) does anyone know what year that was? :)
Anyway, My high school music teacher thought it was a good idea to enter the competition :D He, my elder bro Benjie and I wrote and recorded this song in 3 sessions :) We had a deadline to beat, but it beat us by a day, or so.. :( W thought it was a good enough song to be featured in our second Greensteds School album, Chapter One, though lol Extra treat, Lve Sax, courtesy of the amazing, Mr. Ben Adolwa, and BENJIE RAPS IN IT! :D #SoCute! :))
