‘Masharti’ by Vivian is finally out and it’s amazing (Video)

Talented singer Vivian Wambui, popularly know as Vivian, has finally released a new song after being quiet for many months and believe you me, it was worth the wait.

The jam dubbed Masharti, which is a Swahili word that means conditions, talks about loving someone without them dictating how you should do it i.e. with no conditions. Does that make any sense? I hope it does.

The Chingi Changa hitmaker really outdid herself on this track. It sounds pleasant to the ears and if you are a big fan of Vivian like myself, I’m sure your hand will be stuck on the replay button.

Vivian has an amazing voice. To add to that, she varies it from time to time. If you ask me, she is without a doubt one of the most powerful female vocalists in Kenya at the moment.

The other thing that I love about this beautiful lass is that she sings from the heart i.e  it’s natural so the listener finds it easy to connect with her. It almost feels like she is addressing you directly.

Masharti is well arranged. This jam just flows. However, the most amazing thing about it is its simplicity. Trust me, I was able to master the whole of it after listening to it only twice.

Ilogos Music came through with an dope beat. As much as I’m a big fan of Vivian, I had a difficult time deciding what I love more between the beat and her singing.

Although the video isn’t that bad, I felt they should have done more because some scenes are so dull. That aside, I am sure you’ll agree with me that the coloration and scene transitioning were on point.

Watch Masharti below and tell us what you think. Enjoy!

The Kansoul and Vivian have teamed up on a new club banger dubbed ‘Accelerator’ and we love it (Video)

About a fortnight ago, I wrote an article urging The Kansoul to treat is to another hit. I had noticed that despite featuring The Kansoul is irreplaceable! in various collabos, the group had not released a song of their own since September last year.

I was not aware that they had something in the works seeing as they released a new banger a few days later. To top it all, The Kansoul decided to feature Vivian in the song  titled Accelerator or Serereka if you like.

Just as the name suggests, this is a party song. There is no message here ladies and gentlemen, sorry to disappoint you. It’s just a feel good song, the kind will lift your spirits in a snap.

All the three singers i.e. Mejja, Madtraxx and Kid Kora had great punchlines in this song. I, however, feel that none of them came close to the latter. There’s a part where he says, “kama kuku ni ndege basi samaki ni meli” and it will leave you with so many questions.

Vivian also did a great job on this track, if you listen keenly it almost seems like she’s rapping as the song begins. Her wordplay and lyrics was also on point. She brought a different vibe that was just awesome.

The video concept was simple. It’s probably the same as all other videos by The Kansoul. People just dancing in an outdoor setting while Mejja, Madtraxx and Kid Kora go about their thing. The only difference is that this time  around it has a girlish vibe (read as umbrellas) because of Vivian.

Just like most songs by The Kansoul, Accelerator was produced by Madtraxx himself and to be honest, he outdid himself on this one. You might argue that the beats in their songs are pretty much the same but I feel this one has a twist. Does it though?
