Rabbit Picks Up From Where His Murdered Gangster Girlfriend Left Off
Rabbit is one of the most respected in the industry right now. Numerous polls–including a recent Ghafla! one–have had him named as the best rapper around.
One of the tracks that really got him noticed is Dodoma, a narrative about his love affair with Betty, a woman who turns out to be a wanted gangster. And the story turned out to be true and Rabbit never found out until the girl was finally gunned down by cops.
Part 2 picks up where 1 left off, speaking about the aftermath of Betty’s death and what Rabbit went through after the incident. The Dodoma series now transcends to different areas of art. Storytelling is a natural aspect of music but with this series, as evidenced at the end of this second part, this will become something even bigger as it leaves space for another installment.
His nickname, Kaka Sungura, came from his pals who noticed his narrative abilities. And if there is one track that best illustrates that gift, it’s Dodoma. Not many rappers can do fluent Swahili and come out as legit as he does.
The success may have been the motivation for the second part of what could turn out to be a series featuring the soulful Harry Kimani who recently made his comeback to music. Dodoma was produced by Pro’voke. The video is not out yet but the slideshow below makes for a brilliant mood board to go with the visuals. Check it out below.
