Leezu Posted October 16, 2012 No new tracks sung in Somali or Somali rap? Like his song 'America' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oba hiloowlow Posted October 16, 2012 leezu got dissapointed too but i guess he can't do the same thing always Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leezu Posted October 16, 2012 Yeah, but hes only done it once and his Somali rap is nice, especially America. Only one other song where he raps/sings in Somali but his just featured. Some Damian Marley and Nas track about Africa. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SomaliPhilosopher Posted October 16, 2012 there is a somali verse at the end of "70 excuses" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera Posted October 16, 2012 Haven't listened to it yet, but I'm disappointed with the cover. Yes, half of our people are nomads, but that is the view the world already has of Somalia/Somalis. I would have preferred something urban like: An alleyway of old Hamarweyne The Dervish tombs Marka etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kulmiye Posted October 16, 2012 could have worked with AAR MAANTA for few songs and that would give a minimum to appeal to his Somali fan base. nothing new here! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wyre Posted October 16, 2012 I don wanna judge him wrong but please someone explain what he means these lines I never thought I'd see the hair in my nose gray But life goes on how ironic If I could do it over I'd probably smoke chronic But still follow the footsteps of prophet Mohammed I probably turn every lie that I told honest I be an equal terrorist I give the middle finger to my therapist And flush my sedatest I'll have a baby with a feminist and name him sexist Life's a contradiction on my check list???? in his song, gold in tumbuktu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
