Video of the day: Nitabaki Na Nani, Sarabi drop a massive new collaborative video!
1 July 2014
I believe that music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy. The simple ability of grabbing a musical instrument and in the next five minutes or so, composing a song out of nothing but an idea makes you a deity; “out of nothing he made something”
The same idea modeled in just a few minutes has the ability to tap into human emotions or change their way of thinking depending on the message conveyed. Don’t believe me? Kenyan Band Sarabi shows this to be true, with their new video, “Nitabaki na nini?”
In this new jam, Sarabi collaborates with several influential artist like Juliani, H_art the Band and Tear Drops just to name a few. It is “a dedication to those who have lost their lives in politically instigated violence” as Sarabi have clearly put it at the beginning of the video.
The band is known for their impressive collection of highly conscious music, singing right from issues that affect the society straight into politics. They have attained the ability to move massive crowds with positive their positive messages.
Graffiti, flawless poetry and mighty impressive vocals, the video is simply a feast for the eyes! And the message cuts right through with precision. Just after the first listening I was nodding my head repetedly as I concurred with their words.
I can say more about the video, even dress it all up in silk and gold, but watching the video yourself would do more justice don’t you think?
Want conscious music? Keep it Mdundo!
