love should be pleasant — fun & carefree, or at least that’s what i think & Chipego helps me realise that sonically with absolute brilliance!

Chipego, without saying much or emphasis on spoken enunciation — goes on a harmonious exhibition! just effortlessly, singing her heart out, almost dancing, just as love should be…

we always speak about falling in love but imagine a love where you’re in control of your footwork — your emotions & you can tap dance, expressing yourself in your own way…

Lyrics By: Paulo Sergio Carvalho

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Started with a chair and a mic, just a kid on the grind
Small-town guy with a big-city mind
Read a hundred books a year, stacking wisdom high
Self-taught genius, could go toe-to-toe with any guy
Debate stage was home, you were running the score
Crowds got bigger — small halls turned to packed floors
Always gave your time, no fan left behind
Now we’re millions strong, and your dream’s alive

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Man of faith, but real — not afraid to admit
You stumbled sometimes, but you owned every bit
Family man first, father to two
And the way your wife loved you, everyone knew
Respect was mutual, the bond was clear
Love like that is something rare to hear

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Turning Point USA? Yeah, you built that fire
Lit up the youth, took the truth higher
Campus to campus, you faced the crowd
Asked the hard questions, stood up loud
Patriot heart, never took a day off
Carried the flag, no matter the cost
Kids lit up when you hit the stage
Your energy sparked a brand-new age

You are forever young, frozen in time…

Urban warrior, never dodged a fight
Open to all, you brought facts to light
Didn’t run from smoke, you walked straight in
Answers from the heart, where the truth begins
Even your critics had to respect the game
Every debate partner still remembers your name

You are forever young, frozen in time…

We’ll miss you, brother, but your mission’s not done
Legacy’s built, and the movement runs
Haters will hate, ‘cause they can’t comprehend
A man this bold, this true ‘til the end

You are forever young, frozen in time…
Always Remembered Never Forgotten...

Forever Young Frozen In Time

the making of ilanga lase'busuku turned out to be one of my most cherished sessions i had with takatso. well before i tell the story filled with smiles and happiness, one question: the naming of a song should be the easiest part in making music right? nope... not with this one. actually... nothing is ever easy with takatso but anyway. i originally made the beat with a straight forward concept in mind, a weird concept when i now think about it but when i was making the beat, it kinda made sense. you probably wondering, what the hack?? but i specifically made the beat for a person who has to catch a taxi to work, school or home. and am not talking about any other taxi, am talking about a white isiyaya driven by umzulu phaqa with a short temper when you miscounted his money. i made it for the ones who give a 110% in everything they do. whether a 9 to 5, university or college, the chasing your dreams grind or the i have to hustle for my family person, i made it with them in mind. i titled the untitled beat "feel good today" with the intention of listeners could bump to it in the morning and whether they predicting a shity day today, i hoped they would play this jem in the morning and feel good for the rest of the day. takatso and i meet way back in high school, i actually liked his freestyles in rap battles we had but that's just a story another day, and when he pulled through to the studio, i played him the beat and he immediately started pulling up hooks and flows from different verses he wrote on his notepad and we started "knitting" different lyrics together. luna: that's was the name i came up with after recording the song. takatso thought i was making reference on what he said on the chorus said "don't worry babe the moon will take me home" nope. luna was actually the name i gave my dog which passed on around that time. she was two months old before she passed on. sad but takatso and sifiso thought i shouldn't take my sob story and make it the center story of this "beautiful" song. it was actually hard for me to change the title cause i wanted something that could remind me of her. ilanga lase'busuku: this title has so many versions of the same story so if i would tell you my version of it, some would be lies in takatso's eyes. but to some it all up, i couldn't illustrate the vibes that occurred on those sessions with the boy. can't forget sifiso with the hums.
