LadyJaywah – Monkey Money feat. EL – Free Download

LadyJaywah‘s first official single – and nope, it’s not the fantastic soulful jazz we’ve been getting used to at her live performances here in Ghana. She hits us from a totally different angle, hard spittin’ raps over a tight azonto beat, courtesy of EL, also featured on the song.

Monkey money
 some of that easy come easy go sakawa cash
 LadyJaywah is not easily acquired however, and this song is a hilarious chase between her and a big money man – played by EL.

Lady’s album is almost ready, watch out for a release soon via Pidgen Music. And catch her later this month in Ghana, on tour with the FOKN Bois!

R2Bees Goes Highlife! New Scorcher: Odo

R2Bees are just effin with people’s heads! NOBODY will expect them to drop a highlife song, and that’s just where the hit making duo is hitting us from. Killbeatz is behind this one once again… a nice warm up before the massive Africa Unplugged show August 27th in London. That and more shbows in North America right afterwards.

Can you believe the way Mugeez gets down on this song? By the way, for the non-Ghanaians out there… Odo means looooooove. Of course!

DJ Satelite: Luanda No Horizonte – Afrohouse from Angola

DJ Satelite: Luanda No Horizonte – Afrohouse from Angola

DJ Satelite is one of the most talented and inspiring artists I met on my recent trip to Luanda. So much so that I devoted my last Lungu Lungu column to him last week, not only because of his musical talent, but also his impressive skills at bringing fragmented scenes together in Luanda. A relentless producer and DJ, he recently sent me this impeccable mix, where he blends Angolan and South African house to perfection. Flawless set, flawless selection…  no tracklist however, get your diggin’ on!!

This type of music, somewhere between afrohouse and deep, soulful house, has become the soundtrack of a city: these sounds immediately evoke Luanda to me, hence the name of the mix – Luanda on the horizon. So let it play, and let a piece of Angola take over your mind for the next hour. Next step: book a flight and enjoy some mufete on the Ilha.

UPDATE: by popular demand, Satelite’s tracklist:

1-Invitation 2 Dance – Mono tone ft Rubygold
2- Nua Uno (Dub Main) – Rosario Feat. Braga Havaiana
3- Faith (Lemon & Herb Remix) – Bevan Godden feat. Maiya
4- Jester Jocker ft. Rosy – Talk To Me (Rosario’s Touch)
5- Love Is The Only Gold (Low Deep T Main Mix) – TJ Cases pres. J-Key
6- All I’m Asking (Main) – Boddhi Satva feat. Rachelle Claudio
7- Maboko Na Ndouzou (Main Mix) – Boddhi Satva
8-To (Boddhi Satva Afriki Soul Mix) – Nicolas Vautier feat Blick Bassy
9- Kimba Bwana (Antonello Coghe & Rancido Tshiyanda dance Mix)-G’Sparks feat Wasso
10- Infinite Boys feat G.Man – Machangu (Afrotech Mix)
11- Sengkhathele (Rosario Deep Tribal Touch) -Euphonik feat. Shota
12- Timewalker (Abicah Soul Remix) – Black Mamba feat. Swaylo
13- Amor Del Alma (Angolan Soul Mix) – Dj Vinny Q ft. Angelica Linares
14- Drums Of Kalawa (Original Afro) – Black Motion
15- KIMBO CUIA (DJEFF MAIN INSTRUMENTAL) – Djeff & Filipe Narciso ft BZB
