Chorus: T*Spark
You’ve got to keep your eyes open, coz you never know when;
Your life could be stolen, away from you.
Too many guns blowing, we’re losing control and;
Where are we hoping it’s leading us to?

First verse: Medicine
I figured the block ain’t worth it;
One too many currents in a line short circuit.
I’m from the south of the southern most, where nothing’s perfect;
Snatching papers from Louis Vuitton purses.
Giving you value for money in lyrical verses;
Flowing on ssshhh beats, I call them curses.
Now we’ve got the koldgeneration racing

Keep it on hush

1st verse: Moki

This is the situation
The Koldproduk operation been dessimating the T.V and local radio stations
We know that you've been patiently waiting anticipating the culmination of Uproot's premier complilation
Well here it is, so light a duthcie up or puff a cig;
Fill you glass up, move to the rhythm handle your biz.
Shake that ass up, talking to women with thick figures and curves; And getting wined and dined's what they prefer.
Damnit we back at it again, yall know what it is;
The wolf's loose in the chicken coop yet again.

Verse 1 - Mokobe
En afrique t'es le bienvenue Soleil en continue
Le fond d'mer les plages tu seras jamais déçu
La nature a l'dessus on boit d'l'eau sans chlore
On viste la faune et découvre la flore
Sac a dos visas bamako on approche
La famille se rapproche mets la main à la poche
Faut pas tomber dans l'trou grigri autour du cou
Le pallu sans médoc l'seul doc c'est l'marabout
Continent plus grand qu'les magasins continent

Chit-chat: Richie, OJ Blaq and Asem (part 2)

Lynx Richie Asem OJ Blaq Give me blow Mekura ma Pigaro FremaThis is part 2 of the interview with Richie, Asem and OJ Blaq. Check out the first instalment at this link.

Museke: What is the inspiration for the songs you write?
Asem
– Inspiration is divine, someone might say, you look at your environment and write songs. God inspires you to see what you see around. What people say through conversation and when someone passes a phrase, you catch it and use in the studio. You use someone’s experience - life experiences.

OJ Blaq – It comes from around, reality, what happens in the world and the people in the studio. Everybody around would give you ideas, it’s like a family. People give pointers, Richie directs most of the works I do. Anybody around who is also musically inclined chips in, and if it works out, we take it. We don’t mind who talks, if it’s good for what Lynx is doing, it’s allowed. You see realities around. If you feel what you bring (that) something out, it would make people comfortable, then you use it.

Richie – It comes from within and without. Music is inside of me so I get some ideas from divine inspiration and some from my environment and people around me.

Museke: Richie, where did you learn to make beats and what are some songs you’ve done beats for?
It was self-taught. I started making beats because I was suffering to find producers who could make beats for the kind of music I wanted to do. I have this belief that with determination everything is possible. I started when I was 17.
I have done beats for Scientific (Till Africa unites), Heated up (Irene n Jane), Tinny (Incomplete), Okyeame Kwame (Wo so n Mmaa), Amandzeba and Irene and Jane (Don’t want to be lonely), Tiffany (How we do it), Asem (Gimme blow), OJ Blaq (Me kura mu), among others.
