On Fire
Artist:
Nameless
Release – 2004
Review by, Tumaini 'tee' Mosha
In one of the most anticipated Kenyan
albums ever, Nameless delivers greatness in his official debut, “On
Fire.” The album, which hosts the club song of the year, “Nina Noki” is
dominated with mostly dance tracks
(naturally being an Ogopa Djs production),
like “Mannerless” and “Holiday”. One of the best surprises on
the album is a guest appearance by E-Sir on a unreleased collaboration with
Nameless called "Maisha". On the downward slope, another surprise was ironically
Nameless’ actual first song, “Megarider” (produced by Ted Josiah), which
paved a way for a lot of his success is not on the album. But besides
that,
overall the album has
the expected Ogopa "hanye flavor" and was definitely all we were
expecting and more after hearing “Nina Noki”. Nameless is definitely a
candidate for 2004 Album of the Year.
Overall 4 out of 5

 Raha
Kamili
Artist:
AY
Release - 2003
Review by, Tumaini
'tee' Mosha, Editor
With the hit single, "Raha
Kamili", rapper AY's debut
album entitled "Raha Kamili" is riding on the same success as its
single. AY who is one of the best in the rap scene today, has a combination
of good beats that are fun to dance to and good to vibe to as well.
Nevertheless, some of the album is shaky, with some beats sounding a
little too similar. Overall, still worth checking out, especially for
true Bongo Flavas fans, AY delivers what you'd expect.
Overall 3 out of 5
