Respect Is Reciprocal

two thousand and 9ice

it's been a long time coming

Alapomeji
Edumare, show me

I'm young, I'm strong

As I grace this stage, my rhythm change the race

You better recognise, that I run this show

Respect Is Reciprocal
what's good for the goose is good for the gander

Chorus:
Woblewu blewu blewu
Amedeka me tou na dou o
Woblewu blewu blewu blewu
Gamesou ne mia tou dou a

Medji be na gna
Amedekawo migne
Eyata novigne, tso niehe yi todope
Ne noviwo wo noua tjoeke
Siagne lonlon djessi

Brother and sister,
We are children of the same mother
That's why we gotta work together
Assilassime mia tou doua
Eyata blewu miwo
Blewu Blewu, Blewu miwo

Ja ouviste o som da Anselmo
Nao vai dar a parte 2
Ves como e que a historia desenrola
E como e que o som acabou depois
Foi esse o mesmo problema
Ele leva so
A minha dama ao cinema
E quer chorar e desabafar no peito
Dizer que relacao dele ja nao tem jeito
E eu tenho ja que consolala
Mais um motivo para eu toca-la
Coracao ja esta bater,as maos estao a rocar
E tudo ja esta acontecer

Coro:

Eu nao sou de confiar e esta aprovado
Nunca deixes a tua dama do meu lado
O que eu quero e curtir
Quero me divertir
Ate um dia alguem me descobrir
Yes
Eu nao sou de confiar e esta aprovad

Kwabena Kwabena - Game Changer for African Music

Kwabena, Kwabena will be making his first appearance in America in New York City, on Saturday, March 20, 2010 at the Park Central Ballroom courtesy of Boogie Down Nima Productions.

If there is a face to African indigenous soul music movement, it is probably Kwabena Kwabena. The respect he receives from other artists has been driven by his uncompromising success as well as from the unselfishness he has shown in support of other up-and-coming singers and musicians. A tirelessly touring artist, Kwabena, Kwabena vocals can be heard on countless albums by other artists such as Daddy Lumba, Okyeame Kwame , Tinny , Kontihene , Castro, and Obrafour. That peer love appears to only be exceeded by the near fanatical following he has among a surprisingly large fan base, both old and young, making him a sort of Highlife soul royalty. Kwabena, Kwabena has dominated African radio and he is quickly changing the game and the sound of African Highlife music.
