OSAM Challenge

I did a freestyle over Blinky Bill's 'Lost Afronaut' a while back, and I re-recorded it and this is it!

Lyrics

The angel said
you know its time to be free
be one with who you want to be
you and I
we know its the to be free
be one with who you want to be

Settle down
Take your crown
Lost african Kings and Queens
Settle down
Take your crown
Lost african Queens and kings

You can’t tell me you haven’t felt the rise
of all the good,
of all the hood mentality
control reality

Keep your eyes in the sky cos you’re the one
the one with the dream
the one with the energy
the driven one

The angel said
you know its time to be free
be one with who you want to be
you and I
we know its the to be free
be one with who you want to be

No  ones gotta die
but they gonna try hold us down
we’re the land of the chosen ones

the golden tribe in the sky
fuck a landing on the moon 
we got someting to share 
so be ware
predict the future with the past

now do you need some help with that?
just sit and relax
got the queen for this
ladies tell em 
that we are the queens of this
we got the heritage 
deeper than you would know

a special lady babe
a lady babe
mama’s got her heritage 
deeper then you would know


At the end of this horizon 
Hit your chest with the knowledge yeah
        I bet you can feel it yeah
I bet you been waiting for this yeah

We 
at the end of this horizon 
Hit your chest with the knowledge yeah
        I bet you can feel it yeah
I bet you been waiting for this yeah

you and I
we know its time to be free
be one with who you want to be
Bet thats something that you never thought of
but we here for you
we here for you
we love you  

Settle down
Take your crown
Lost african Kings and Queens
Settle down
Take your crown
Lost african Queens and kings

Tetu Shani x Mayonde - Chemistry [M³'s remix]

The Project Greatness

If I Had Superpowers

Track 4 in my debut album: #thechangeexperience - 'Mr. Music Man' with Lisa Oduor-Noah and Owuor Arunga.
 Lisa is my favorite Kenyan vocalist. Just listen and you will know why!
I am continuously inspired by Owuor Arunga, one of the hardest working musicians I have met. With 4 Grammys! It was an absolute honor having him feature on the album.

Curls (Single)

Curls

May the rising of the sun remind you always of the grace behind you, of the growth that brought you and of the new beginnings before you.

Daylight

Sema is a seductive and playful afrobeats fusion track co- produced by M^3. It follows closely on the heels of Tetu's standout hit AfricaSun and shows his versatility as a pop songwriter, composer and arranger.

The song attempts to capture that moment when you feel chemistry with someone you just met at a party and have to overcome your nervousness and approach them.

Tetu Shani- Sema

This is a first in a series of songs for the once a month challenge featuring Chemutai Sage and four other Kenyan artists.  The artists have commited to dropping one song every month until December 2019.

"Where Did You Go? " is a song that encompasses the withdrawal symptoms of lost love.  Written in 2008 by Sage,  the lyricism is simple and you can feel the push and pull between acceptance and denial of this ultimate betrayal. Produced by Dillie,  the song takes you back to old school NeoSoul with its vibey bassline. This marks Chemutai Sage's return to music after a year of hiatus.

So much more music coming this year.

Where Did You go?

Long For You

In the 4th release for collaboration month of the #OSAMChallenge, Lisa and Noel teamed up to give a sultry ballad about finding peace in the midst of waiting for time to yield the fruit of going through process.

Waiting (with Noel Nderitu)

Sometimes you never see the feelings coming; a quick, shy glance, the smile that crosses someones lips when they see you and then they invade your thoughts. With smooth old school beats by Johnson Omonije, one half of WaveyBeatz, ‘The One’ tells the classic story of meeting someone and getting lost in all the feelings that come with learning, knowing and falling for them.

Produced by Johnson Omonije of Waveybeatz
