The jam dubbed Sweet Sensi, has been getting a lot of airplay since it was released a few days ago and to be honest, we are also feeling it.
Interestingly, the first time I heard Sweet Sensi, which talks about the culture of smoking marijuana, I did not really like it but with time, it grew on me and now I can’t get enough of it.
It’s such a beautiful composition. Think of it like Zzero Sufuri’s Zimenishika with some uptown vibe and a little bit of oomph (I didn’t even Google what this word means but it seemed like a good fit).
If you’re a huge fan of Bensoul –like myself – then this is definitely a treat especially if you are a stoner because to be honest that is what this jam is mostly about – celebrating the culture of smoking weed.
Bensoul has an amazing voice and most times I feel that he should even be doing acappella because he doesn’t really need instruments.
As he sings, you feel like he is right in front of you because it is so lively. To add to that, the musician who is signed to Sol Generations, has a wide vocal range.
The fact that he featured Nairobi Horns project on this jam made it even better because they really spiced it up with their instruments. I don’t know if there is anyone in this country who can handle an instrument better than them.
There is not much to say about the video really because it is made up of clips from different events. Anyway, although the concept is simple, I love the fact that it is not dull.
Watch Sweet Sensi below and tell us what you think.
