H.I.F.T : International Edition

Greetings everyone. I know its been a minute since my last post. But I went to the motherland. Now that I'm back, I need to catch up on whats going on in the states here. Aside from the beautiful people, scenery, and culture I came back with, yes you guessed it, new music. I know that I primarily post hip hop related material, hence the name of this blog, but I listen to a lot of different things. I hope you enjoy. I know you won't be able understand all the words, but good music is universal. I also wanted to show the influences that we experience here in the U.S. influence other parts of the world, at the same time. Let me know what you think:

P Square- Forever
You really, really like it?

Ice Prince- Oleku

A little more hip hop for the regulars on my blog. This guy is very big over in Africa. Can any of my Nigerian brothers and sisters tell me what 'Oleku' means?

P Square- Bunieya Elu

This is without a doubt, the number one song where I was at. As you can see, the group P-Square is also very big over there.  This plays at every club, on every corner, every car, you get the point.....

Waconzy- I Celebrate


All I'm going to say about this one is, he definitely is a Lil Wayne fan. Oh and check the white guy's moves at 2:00.

Well, that's it for now. I hope you enjoyed the new music. Thanks for reading and your support.

  1. OMG Definitely had Bunie Ya Elu on repeat for minute. Something about P-squared is absolutely infectious. When I visited my fam in Sierra Leone We couldn't go anywhere without hearing them. Great Party Music. My only wish for African hip hop is that the artists realize that its strength remains in its cultural influences. I understand that US culture is so pervasive and its almost impossible to find a song without reference to a US counterpart, but it shouldn't be the only influence. I also would love to see more Africans hit it big. akon is disgraceful!!!! lol Wish I could have gone to the Festival Salone earlier this month. I'm sure it was fire.
