Stay Black Feat. Preston Harris, ILL Camille & Aneesa Strings

http://www.mrbongo.com/product/tumi-and-the-volume-cd-1153

The most unlikely combination to ever share a melody since free Mandela rallies: Tiago a guitarist with more hair than face, Dave the consciously inconspicuous Jewish bassist, Paulo the vigorous face contorting Mozambican drummer and Tumi a roly-poly twang festooned Muslim emcee. This ladies and gentlemen is Tumi and the Volume, arguably South Africa’s most electric performers. 

The group has managed to create a distinct musical accent for itself that includes blends of samba, swing, hip hop, reggae and poetry that speaks to the unique reality of the South African experience and still relates to the world in that universal way that only beauty can. Think The Roots meets Common by way of South Africa.

The band has wowed audiences all over the country, impressed fellow musicians Blackalicious (U.S.A), Positive Black Souls (Senegal) and Relax (the Netherlands) and has been frequent invitees to world-class music festivals such as the Quart Festival in Norway, North Sea Jazz in Cape Town, Montreal Jazz. They have also played throughout Europe.

LYRICS

VERSE
Vain with the venom of absent fathers we imitate
Teasing the reaper with all these needles and Tanqueray
Loving the Negus, she bought the ‘jitas another crate
For pole position and one prescription of nova-cane
I’m hitting on pretty woman worth all the sentimentals
Bet she could see through my baby-face to evade my ego
When she be f**king my other friend
F**king over my other friend

HOOK
Feeling you while depressed only turned me into a sadist (into a sadist)
Turning the pages, turning over your waist again (turning your waist)
Holding the power, you give to me when you’re naked (oh, when you’re naked)
I feel the same whenever the world takes from me (it takes from me)

CHORUS
See, I wrote this script for the wicked
Wounded and doping to feel it
Lost in the open, afflicted
Haunted by those who forgive
I wrote this script for the witness
Winded with sobering feeling
Lost in emotion, affected
Haunted by those who forget, so 
right now, right round, right now, vibe (repeat x3)
right now, right round, right now

VERSE
Word to my consciousness, black and bruised with dishonor
For knowing lust and its consequence, knowing love as it conquered me
You’re falling for pheromones and discouraging common sense
Shuck and jiving in confidence till the mourning with cowardice
Word to the argument, alpha womxn and arguably 
All I got, for my lighter skin and the losses in spite of this
Oh Poseidon you’ve slighted me and this Nubian on her knees
You’re wasting your energy
Don’t you go waste your empathy
Word to f**king my other friend
F**king over my other friend 
Word to f**king my other friend
F**king over my other friend
