I have to admit or maybe is just me but rappers nowadayz are sounding the same and nothing they bring is shocking to our ears. Don’t want cats and the whole rap fanatics 2 get me wrong, Kwesta is talented cat but I think, again my opinion, as a writer I’m allowed 2 have dat kind freedom aren’t I? ok as I was saying, cats fall short on their music, on this particular one, Kwesta. Special Rekwest is his 1st album from Bittabing Entertainment, a special one indeed cuz Kwesta since joining Slikour’s joint four yrs ago, he has created himself a fan base, I must admit the boy has a good following. Kwesta came out last yr Sept with a single ‘Stomp’ which rocked the GP air waves and TV screens, I was convinced until I heard the whole album this Jan. My opinion is, Battabing cud have gone with a diff joint as a 1st single, but well I guess itz al marketing strategy. Kwesta is fresh right, but the album feels luk warm; all 14 tracks r well produced nd have the kind of sound that grabs yr attention, but fifteen min wthou dat sound u almost 4get wat have u been listening to. There r catchy tracks lyk ‘flash it’ my favorite on the album by the way, Babhemi ft Sandile Ziqubu and ‘Flava’. The second track on the joint, ‘Ekhonenei’ it feels like something Prokid will do but he actually did a gud job on it. With the likes of Proverb, N’ veigh, Red button and flabba which is an unlikely collabo the album gets some bit of a spark towards hip hop headz. Most of the songs are g2G( gud to great) but forgettable but for the die hard fans well, this is it. I respect Bittabing Entertainment for what they did with ‘Mr Cool’ himself, b4 I forget there’s a track ft RJ, Junya Skills nd T’do it’s a keeper but I was disappointed by Mr Cool, lyrically on this song but its well produced joint. Kwesta says he’s not her for the fame but to give u music that u like, that’s wat he’s here for.
Luv uR Hood nd recognize its al gud
