Not a hard choice.

^ First heard the term "xiiran" from truck drivers in Central/Southern Africa. That's what they used to call their native female cabin crews or escorts. Apparently, it was because most "xiirans" had shorter hair than themselves. A friend of mine from there uses it to describe any loose girl. I'll leave it to Nuune to explain what he meant by it.

hahahaha Che.. To think I was hip!

[RedSea]

I went to the same High School as her. She is great girl and talented soccer star walibana. And yes she is/was member of SOL, I don't know if she is still active though.

[Aaliyyah]

She has a nice voice and her lyrics are inspirational...

 

^ Ah ! more proof why she doesn't deserve to call her self Somalia - can't even spell Hooooyo (shakes head)

Hayam last I checked the correct spelling was hooyo not Hooooyo

 

Anyways support the sister shes spreading a good message.

 

Her bio...

 

Born in Mogadishu, Somalia, SOMALIA grew up in a world of struggle and chaos. Surrounded by the devastation of war and tribal separation, SOMALIA had to grow up faster than the average child. At the tender age of 12 SOMALIA’S family searched for refuge in the free world, breaking all chains and barriers to find a chance of survival. With God on their side, SOMALIA’S family were one of the few families that made it to the Land of Hope, America, Minnesota that is.

 

Having to adapt to the new environment, she found peace at expressing her feelings through poetry. Her poetry was a special type of poetry. Her words were a reflection of darkness that filled SOMALIA’S head. SOMALIA soon became recognized for her work as a poet in the Minnesota area, but then another change entered her life. Just beginning to settle into the snowy weather of the East Coast, SOMALIA’S family decided to move to Sunny California. “San Jose, CA here we come.”

 

This change in weather must have sparked a revelation in SOMALIA, which saw the Hyphy movement and the culture of hip-hop music that filled the streets, every where she walked in the Bay Area. Taking advice of her friends, she began to write songs to Hyphy tracks that local producers would throw to her. The tracks would not really fit her emotions and words that came from her struggle.

 

In search for a perfect fit, SOMALIA began to look for producers high and low. Never thinking anything of it, she responded to an ad on Craigslist posted by The Squad Music Group of Oakland. The Squad Music Group consisting of Will-U producer/vocal arranger and Taboo!! Dangerfield producer/filmmaker was in search of something fresh and new and SOMALIA was that something fresh and new.

 

In the process of working together, SOMALIA is also being documented through film as well as her music for her fans to see the real life struggle of becoming a new comer to the game and ending up a seasoned veteran.

 

SOMALIA’S music is a direct reflection of her past and present battles. It is a testament of how she perceives life and issues that make up life. “I always believed that one person can make a difference in this world, and a leader is ascended when he is able to take risks, and that’s what I’m doing right now. I hope that my words, can accomplish what I’m aiming for, which is peace, among nations, religions, race and tribalism.”

 

Her debut single “Our Day Will Come” has been noted by fans across the world, to be a turning point type of song. It gives attention to the Good of a terrible situation, “Your day will come, Where pain will numb, been said by some, so I wait, for that day, To come.” Her album is full of positivity and hope, not popularity and dope. This album will standout as a diamond in the rough, the songs are infectious because of the seriousness of the music, the deepness of the lyrics and the smooth sound of her voice.

I say well done!!!

 

anyone knows what her real name is?

 

salaam

[Aaliyyah]

Our day will come by Somalia

 

 

Hook:

Your day will come,

Where pain will numb,

Been said by some,

So I wait, for that day,

To come,

 

They preach love,

I seek love,

I pray above

So I wait, for that day

To come,

 

To God I swore,

I’ll give the poor,

Respect and more,

So I wait, for that day,

To come,

 

Verse I:

Consciously I await,

I’m sleep but awake,

Eyes dilate, when

nightmares escalate --

Can’t escape the past,

All I see is tears, and --

Pain, refuse to end

Who am I they ask --

I’m just a helping hand,

Just another Friend,

Around corner,

I’m a loner, without a home,

Mom said she loves me,

And pops is gone,

All I have is hope,

And my day shall come,

My pain shall numb,

Struggle be done,

Embrace freedom,

See

I stood in the frontline,

Like the buffalo soldiers

Awaiting life to take over,

I shed tears --shift gears --minimized life,

Observed little girls

Become a grownup wives

My heart is ill, but my lyrics heal,

Cause its real, and if you feel what I feel,

Lets pray together,

Lets pray together,

 

Hook:

Your day will come,

Where pain will numb,

Been said by some,

So I wait, for that day,

To come,

 

They preach love,

I seek love,

I pray above

So I wait, for that day

To come,

 

To God I swore,

I’ll give the poor,

Respect and more,

So I wait, for that day,

To come,

 

Verse II:

With life I tried to cope

Try to live full of hope,

Walking bare feet, and I really

Really hope,

That I don’t have to go,

Depart this life, that I strive,

Have five kids, be a loving wife

And I don’t sin, God has better plans

Get married to a better man

Like the old days, where love

Used to chase the modest and grace

And in that case -- I rather wait,

Cause I’m that type of fish

In the deepest oceans,

Brothers keep hoping

And sisters keep closing,

While he trying to poke in,

I’m provoking such TINGGGGG

Even though I sing track, I

Try to go back to my roots, and my roots

Trying to mute, tribes and the feuds of my people, MY PEOPLE!

My people, so I pray for that day to see them come, come

Reach their hand and get some, some freedom

 

Hook:

Your day will come,

Where pain will numb,

Been said by some,

So I wait, for that day,

To come,

 

They preach love,

I seek love,

I pray above

So I wait, for that day

To come,

 

To God I swore,

I’ll give the poor,

Respect and more,

So I wait, for that day,

To come...

Haven't heard her song but her lyrics (above) are all over the place, she's nothing like K'naaan. K'naan to me competes with big name poets. :cool:

 

 

She does however, have a fabulous taste in cars.

[Uniqueness]

Yeah, I saw her on facebook. She seems to be very popular on there. I wouldn’t compare her to K’NAAN though, because he is Mos Def type of rapper and she is S.ade type of soul singer/rapper. They have a total diverse music plot, but they seem to talk about the same subject, mainly because that’s all they know.

 

I’m falling head over heels for her “hooyo” song; I joined her fan page just because of that song. The lyrics hit home for me, loosing my mother in the war. For those who are whining about her name not being fit for her or the concept of naming herself being s.tupid… think of something else to hate on, because that is just idiotic thing to say walahi. I’m very proud for her to have that name, which stands for a lot of struggle and misunderstanding.

 

Blessed, how can K’NAAN compete with top poets, when all he does is copy those exact poets?

I’m frankly disappointed when it comes to his lack of originality!

 

Ps. Does anyone know if the girl has any direct link to her music, except facebook and reveb or whatever its called?
