This is not a Charlie Murphy anecdote. No E! Tue Hollywood Story is to be found
Sights may be similar, but things are not as merely they seem. Rick James will not rolls through wearing jewlery to commemorate "Unity". Anyone seeking sad pancakes is urged to to seek out Prince's place of residence. Purify yourselves in the waters of Lake Minnetonka: that only looks like Beautiful, "the World's ugliest hater" delicately dancing on the couch
The beat is building. Ad-libs are thrown in for good measure. The club seems inconspicuous; not unlike any other night out. It really might as well be the musical performance for an episode of Chappelle's Show Much like the red suit, an enviably leather is seen; any combination there of would be delirious. Even the dance troupe sporting matching outfits makes complete sense. After the hook, a second softer synths starts to play. Then the scene turns into a 2 Live Crew fantasy.
The author swears to see hints of orange and green somewhere amid the masquerade party.
But "Y-tjukutja" is not Miami Bass in the least. Instead the video and accompanying music comes care of house from Mzansi's Uhuru. A vocal mid tempo track in quintessential South African style, driven by music store's worth of percussion, the run is the territory of two synths. The best moment, however, comes after the bridge. A funk groove is thrown in for good measure while the melodic synths changes to a more shorter, more aggressive phrase: success on every level
In spite of being a 2013 song - albeit late in the year, November to be precise - a remix has sprung up. Care of Bebe Poco (a.k.a. Bebe Poco Youknow, a.k.a. Dj Bebe Poco Loco) "Y-tjukutja (Remix 2k15)" is released with a DDPR stamp of approval . Rather than continuing an afro-house theme, the song that flirts being technobrega. A Similar rhythm is maintained with a snare-tambourine combination at the same tempo. Be that as it may, styling is minimal and its appearance is glaringly simple; sickly sweet and enjoyable for all the wrong reasons. A playful base and single note synth are the staples of what can best be described as a guilty pleasure of a re-imagination. The original melodic synths are sampled during the chorus portion, but unlike Uhuru's version, Bebe Poco stops after the verse. No fabulous flare appears at the end.
Good in its limited serving size and available for download.
