The leading star of this week's video is Zico (one of the most famous contemporary artists in Mozambique) who offers us a mix of two of his songs (Tauas and Vamos Embora [= let's go, in Portuguese]).
Zico's themes are almost always the same: women (avassati in Ronga), and he sings primarily in both Ronga and Changana (although he often manages to inject some Portuguese in the middle).
What I like about Zico's work is the beat, because his lyrics are silly and his video clips are vulgar [except when he, and his mates, show some cool Mozambican dance steps]. That being said, his art is club music (where nobody cares about what the artist is saying).
Dance away!

ReplyDelete"...where nobody cares about what the artist is saying..."
ReplyDeleteThat's the problem. What he is saying ruins the music just as most rap singers!
Max, I published two lists while you're away! I hope you there when you get back! :o)
Hey Max I will come back later, for some reason the video is not displaying, must be my bad connection these days. However, you know I am one of those who never paid attention to lyrics anyway, lol, just love the music, and few times someone would say to me 'you like this - I am surprise you like the words' - ouch, I better go and re-listen the song again, lol.....hope everything is okay girl. Anna :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't dance (not a dancer) but I wrote a nice post to the sounds of this music! Inspirited I guess :D
