For the better part of the year, Bahati has been on the receiving end. This was after all his artists under EMB records exited from the label.
Reasons? Some remain unknown to date. However with the shake up in the label,Bahati has unveiled a new artist under his record namely Peter Blessing.
Peter hails from Taita Taveta County and truth be told the boy posses beautiful vocals and rhythm. We will get to know Peter Blessing as time goes by.
Nasubiri bado
For now we break down the new Jam by Peter Blessing titled “Bado Nasubiri”.
Bado Nasubiri is Swahili for I am still waiting.
This is a gospel song that Portrays the hardships one has to go through in life before making it in life.
Further it brings out the need of trusting in God for that life pushes towards you no matter the challenges.
There is a point where he says, Maisha haya ya kizungu nzungu Ni wapi tena? Sina pa kutorokea(mmh mmh) Kwenye giza sioni nuru Ni nini chanzo? Nabaki nikijiongelea…..
He is wholeheartedly seeking God’s intervention in his life’s frustration. Sometimes life becomes a very hard tussle and giving up seems to be the only option.
However, from this song their is the urge to keep hoping and believing and clearly that is what everybody needs in life.
Well, I must say Peter Blessing has outdone himself in this jam we hope for more. More talent, more music and more growth,
Message
The song carries a strong message that most first children of most families go through. Essentially, in most places, it is believed that every first child of the family acts as a co-parent.
On the other hand societal pressures of helping out in the family is well depicted in this music video.
Despite the hardships that life has been put before the character in the song for him a”Nasubiri Bado” .
In his faith and trust, he believes that God will be his only source of breakthrough. I know this is what most of us pray for on a daily basis.
Production
The song was produced under Bahati’s EMB records. It was shot and directed by super director X-Antonio. I must stay this guy is pure talent. Furthermore with such talent I believe Bahati is back on track when it comes to supporting upcoming talent.
In the meantime for rating purposes I will go with 7/10.
Watch and tell us what you think.
