I'm Lucky

A little motivation to keep striving and not letting anything or anyone stand in your path.

Stand Up And Fight [beat by Hunke]

Karma is an afrobeats/rap collaboration between Sydney's MC Connect and his younger brother, 19 year-old, Sr.Malakai who arrived in Sydney from Nairobi in October 2023. 

The song is about a relationship Malakai had with Leni, who broke his heart and left him for man in a better financial position. The song is a stoic response to heartbreak, which contemplates a future where Malakai has gained career and financial success and despite all this, won’t take Leni back. 

Malakai's soulful afrobeats singing soars, elevating the heartbroken heartbreaker while Connect delivers a fiery rap that encapsulates the raw emotion felt when a lover goes astray.

The track was made over the internet while Malakai was in Nairobi, Kenya and MC Connect was in Sydney, Australia in October 2023.

The idea and arrangement for Snake began with a sample-programmed drum beat that MC Connect created in 2018. In 2019 Connect wrote synth bass and developed the instrumentation and arrangement with samples. In 2020, Connect began penning lyrics to the instrumental during a jam session with mates in the garage of his Parramatta home. The theme of the song became the prevalence of fraudulent rap artists who quickly come and go from the spotlight and are unable to sustain their image because they are not genuine.

In 2021 MC Connect brought the song idea to Martin James’ studio, where the arrangement of the song was transformed. The intention was to create a song with very few repeating parts, and for the arrangement to seamlessly flow into new parts without the listener realising that this was not the usual chorus, verse, chorus, verse, bridge, chorus formula. 

In production of the song, Martin James played bass guitar and electric guitar, MC Connect recorded vocals and following this, Avinash Chordia recorded live drums in the cramped space of Martin James’ Parramatta studio. MC Connect finalised the song with various samples and synthesizers. The song was mixed by James and Connect in 2022 and mastered by MC Connect in 2024. 

In 2023 and 2024, MC Connect has been a regular live performer on the Sydney music scene playing at local bars and clubs alongside Sr. Malakai. Subscribe to MC Connect's mailing list at www.connectordiemusic.com

Parramatta, Western Sydney Emcee, Connect follows up his 2017 debut EP, The Blue Pause with his new single, Passion for the Passion. The track is a fast-paced, tounge-in-cheek rap song with a catchy hook that delves into Connect's love of rap, music and life. As always Connect delivers the lyrical goods; braggadocios, swagalicious, in your face and over the top, Connect's style is the opposite of dull, bland and every day. The skill of vocal delivery is on point and makes for five minutes of nod-your-head-along rap bliss. Mix in the smooth vocal harmonies and counter-vocals and you have the full package in an Australian HipHop song. Think of MC Connect as the new generation's answer to Hilltop Hoods.  Do you have the Passion for the Passion? You will after you listen to this track.
