By Gloria Nanjala. When it comes to getting to the top of the charts, it pays to be different — though not too different. Uniqueness and being trendy is key in todays music world. Kuna kuna, a song by Vic West ft Brandy Maina, Fathermoh, Savara and Thee Exit Band sounds similar to whatever else is popular at the time, but also has a unique sound enough to help them stand out as distinctive. Kuna kuna is benefiting from a prerelease awareness campaign on tiktok that’s been weeks in the making. But the artists are also reaping rewards from the public as club banging gurus, for helping to birth the sound that’s been circulating the radio waves for almost a month now. Vividly, popular success really is more of art.Kuna kuna is a pleasant, upbeat song with a quick tempo and fairly high danceability.It is energetic (fast, loud, noisy), thus gets a very high energy score.Stream kuna kuna on all digital platforms to experience some great talent. https://youtu.be/H059rrXKX1s

Premiered on 17th March on all digital streaming platforms, Josephyl tags Lucy Lugano for the first verse, he comes through on the second verse, Lafayette sweeps in the third verse and DJB100 closes Shine with a bang! You’d really like the amapiano beat on this song, it’s not too heavy for an opener and it seems to strike the right balance between mellow and upbeat, it’s energetic enough to hold your attention. Props to K_Wise. The song was recorded a while back with Josephyl and feeling that the song would sound better with a female touch to it, they seeked Lucy Lugano for the part. The team definitely have an amazing singing voices and they are clearly very passionate about sharing their message of inspiration.

By Brenda Ochwald. It’s almost impossible to not have come across Swat’s colourful music. Casually, Swat Matire, Iano Ranking and Kim Swat stunt on us in the official video for “Finyo” as they wear overalls with plumbing equipments in hand. Their featured vixens look stunning in their outfits and they are seen trying to seduce the guys. Once in what seems like their living room, at the poolside and at the gym. Swat has occasionally grown his artistry and expanded his sonic ability to pen down good, catchy lyrics aside from featuring big music heads in his projects. The result of this is what you as a fan should witness in “Finyo”. Chemy directed the music video and the audio was produced by Kavirus. Watch it below; https://youtu.be/TSHNbEJVVSk
