Its been a minute (ok a month or so since my last podcast) its meant to be a monthly thing, but as usual life in its bitching ways has been throwing a curve ball here, a sucka punch there, an edge rush, blindside hit some, you get the picture...etc etc. BTS(BNTS) is back with show 2, we have got an immense mix of talent, a South African poet dropping a lovely spoken word piece, an emcee oozing with so much energy not to mention flow and delivery. Let alone content your only choice is to feel him. I had to play him back to back. Blitz -in' with a hook like this "set my people free uhuru means freedom and i ain't talking shackles or chains", a Mode spitting IX times out of his damn mind, call it rhyming on sterioids, K'naan, stops by dropping introspect on the cast, emcee's itching with a problem... lots, Shida Mingi, The Kid shows UShahidi behind the mic devices and the usual mainstays Ukoo Flani Mau Mau.
Several shout outs, my man AD (Africanism 06' heads are not ready)...who did the intro feeling the whole concept behind celebrating Richard Pryor. He only did that Mfalme beat..yes that one Mashifta joint thanks for blessing me with that. Izziatic appreciate those few bars.."its funny how they hated the entire culture from Casblanca right down to ...Joburg" . Get to the studio already!!!. G-ni fam...lol at this rate you are going to have to start charging me sampling fee's..."ni mazishi ya kapuka". AQ the Insomniac himself thanks for the late night politricks. Thanks for sliding gems my way man appreciate that.

Msanii!!! You've done it again MusicMan! Soon we'll say "Forget music stores peep Msanii's blog!"LOL!
Said it a gazillion times before, your varied taste in music makes your Podcasts a must listen & I feel honoured to get the 1st helpings as you stay up all nite creating the fire. Asante saaaana!
-The Richard Pryor cut is among the finest intros I've heard. More power to you!
-Ukoo Fulani-MauMau, tight lyrics & very infectious bumping beat. I need to put that on repeat.
That Lebo Mashile (will try to stay focused,LOL!) is an earful I can take any day.
Good looking out promoting all this talent & for the Big Up to my man Blitz!.

Kudos for providing the tracklist, artist names & websites. A real eye opener.
From the K'naan + M-1 vid you provided last time I was tempted to note that the kids in that classroom looked Somali...now I see the connection to this talente brother.

That was TIGHT !!!!!! Thank you!!
A little too much scratching for me but thats because I'm so old.
I have mellowed with age and I don't go for the scratching no more - I like the smoother mixes of acid jazz and the like
. . . but . . .
The music is bumping and the mixing is CORRECT !!!
Tight!!!!
