This is the pilot of my unlikely new podcast, TEMPESTE COLOSSALI (translation: Colossal Tempests). Narrated in my mothertongue, Italian.

The podcast name is a nod to my hometown of Rome, which hosts the infamous Colosseum and a series on unrequieted torrential rains which cause floods and general urban panic.

In this episode, I tell the story of a neo-fascist guy who used to pursue me when I was in high school and sent me - a Black girl - a picture of his penis. He also insulted my approach to making carbonara, a pasta dish that originates from Rome.

This is my story, this is my carbonara socialista.

كلمات اغنية ضل ساتر - مسلم

قلب في الدفاتر تلقى الشعر بيحكي عنا
فاكر ايام ماكنا بنحلم نبقى تحت ضل ساتر
اللي بينا بالايام وصبح كلامنا فاتر
مش لاقي حد غيرك في البعاد اغازل
اخر الطريق ملاقيتش لحن حزين
جف البكا من فرط صبري عالسنين
صدق الي قلك ان بعض العشق دين جف البكا
معدش باقي فعيني شيء غريية عاشقك
حتى وانتي مش هنا انا لسا باقي عالي بينا صورنا
لسا تدلنا كانت الشوارع تشهد ليالي تملنا
قلبي متيم بيكي يشهد عليي ربنا

بس انت صبرك كله خير انت حزنك
ابقى غير انت اعمى بس طير
على اي مرسى يوماتي ترسى انت فوقت ولا لسا
الليل سهرلك خوف البن ليك موصوف
النور محاوطك شوف ولا بعيد لسه رديت وقلت انسى
الصفر اللي جالك من شمالك زادك شيء
الصفر اللي جالك من يمينك عم عليك
بقيت تزهد نفس الهوا من بعد عطش الليل
الصفر الي جالك من شمالك زادك شي
جمعك ف اصبحت تبكي من لاشيء
الصفر الي جالك من يمينك غم عليك
بقيت تزهد نفس الهوا من بعد عطش الليل
بقينا فين رحت مشتاق لنظرة عين

Aya & Bartholomew (Rework) [feat. Anna Majidson]

‘Word Is Bond’ is an ode to hip-hop that embraces the genre-bending possibilities of contemporary rap music. The single’s sonic palette and lyrical content bring together the timeless influences of hip hop trailblazers, like A Tribe Called Quest and J Dilla, with the sounds of new generation artists like Little Simz and Denzel Curry.

Shunaji's captivating vocals and Henry Keen's groove-led production, create a unique sound that defies time and space. ‘Word Is Bond’ is sultry and mysterious, echoing the pair's “best-kept-secret” bond. The track explores the themes of loyalty, kinship, and authenticity, as Shunaji hypnotises listeners with a mantra: “When I write it in pen, the word is bond. Looking in the eyes of a friend, the word is bond”. As their first collaboration, ‘Word Is Bond’ is more than a song: it is a celebration of love and hip hop.

Henry Keen's production is a fusion of old and new school, with a richly textured beat and beautifully selected samples that pay homage to hip-hop legends while pushing the envelope of electronic soundscapes. After releasing his second album, the Dorset-via-London producer continues to inspire with a musical sensitivity that reflects his wide-ranging record collection.

The result is an immersive listening experience that captivates the ear, heart, and soul.

‘Word Is Bond’ is a sonic testament to the evolution of hip-hop, where past and present harmoniously coexist, offering a bridge between generations of music lovers.

Long-time fans of hip-hop and explorers alike, ‘Word Is Bond’ is set to reel you in.

Cosmic Blues is my third self-released EP under my home record label Solo Recordings.

The EP was mostly written during my solo road trip across Southern California. While travelling across the valleys, mountains, deserts and shores of California, I explored the possibility of connecting with the cosmos and decided to channel my vision through what is now Cosmic Blues.

I hope you enjoy the journey. Don't forget to share your thoughts and feedback on this page or in private to info@shunaji.com.
