AKA brings Khuli Chana on board for ‘Bang’ and it’s really dope (Video)

Posted on by David Kingsley

Award-winning South African rapper and producer Kiernan Jarryd Forbes, better known as AKA has teamed up with his countrymate Khuli Chana on a new jam and it’s getting a lot of love from their fans.

The song dubbed Bang has been ruling the airwaves since it came out a few days ago and we are also feeling it or else we would not be reviewing it, would we?

AKA’s lyrical prowess is unmatched. He has a unique ability to play around with words and come up with some very sleek rhymes. To add to that, his punchlines are out of this world.

However, the icing on the cake is that he can also sing. Put simply, he’s a whole package. If you’ve been a fan of AKA as long as I have then I am very sure that you will love this jam. Perhaps, even more than I did.

Khuli Chana also aced it. He breaks the monotony and generally spices up the song by throwing in some Xhosa lyrics and maybe, just maybe, he’s the reason why Bang is so infectious.

I also loved the beat on this track. It’s so subtle and it blends well with the flow of both Khuli Chana and AKA since it allows you to appreciate their flow.

The song titled Ichu has been receiving massive airplay on TV and radio stations since it was released a few days ago, put simply it’s a masterpiece.

Although I could not understand what they were saying, I could tell that he bars were out of this world by following the rhyming words.

The beat for this song was also on point. You just want to keep playing it because it gets you in a good mood almost instantly.

I also loved the video concept. From the fire that is blazing in the background as Casper and Khuli flow, to the styling to the dark scenes and choreography, everything was really on point.

Generally speaking, this is a dope jam, even a language barrier will not stop you from enjoying it, especially if you are a fan of the two super-talented rappers.
