Greedy (Kidum & Nameless)

Lakini sipati kufunga
Lakini sipati chakula

Chamba langu, nimekuwa mali yako

Sina mali
Wametoka mbali

Greedy, greedy, greedy you

Everyday, my children die
We are languishing in poverty
They say we're rich, but I wonder why
We have a disgraced society

Hali yako, hali yangu

Senegal fast food

C'est au Mahattan fast-food Dakar Sénégal cinéma le Paris,
Demain je serais parti,
La gare Dakar, Bamako Mopti
Y'a pas de problèmes? Tout va bien
Aujourd'hui je me marie, j'ai confiance
Amoul solo, Gao, l'Algérie, Tunisie, Italie.
Il n'y a pas de problèmes, j'aime !
J'ai au Manhattan fast-food Dakar Sénégal cinéma le Paris
Ascenseur pour le ghetto

Il est minuit à Tokyo
Il est cinq heures au Mali
Quelle heure est-il au Paradis ?
Il est minuit à Tokyo
Il est cinq heures au Mali
Quelle heure est-il au Paradis ?

In Ghana (Wanlov)

In Ghana
Step off the plane
Kotoka Airport, Accra
Soccer is our favorite sport
Aha!
In Ghana

There go the caddies
Here, take ma bag to the taxi
I'm in Ghana men
Tune from Ranks, Shabba and Priest Maxi
In Ghana

It's shaygaylaygay with the Reggae
Eating abele and groundnuts
Some ice kenkey or abebe
Doesn't even sounds nuts
In Ghana

Here, smiles are free
They are not by force
They are not fake
We have a lot of peace officers
And very few jakes

Cool sea breeze
Very bearable weather
When we say it's our pleasure
We really mean it's our pleasure
In Ghana

Styl-Plus' Iya basira shows that there is a place for food in African music

Chop bar
I was quite shockprised to find out that Styl-Plus had made a song like Iya Basira. The song is not really R&B, it's not really rap, but it does sound African. Iya Basira talks about how someone has gotten into trouble with his girlfriend and mother because he has substituted their cooking for Iya basira's - the classic roadside kiosk chopbar. They have caught Iya basira's spell and their lives are a mess as a result. Eating at chopbars is a pastime for many Africans and popular social spot.
