The Hidden Empire spoken word and rapper Wake has released Abantu Beira. The song’s title is in Lugwere to mean “people of the Past” The Potters Clay member has a penchant for authentic African appraisal when he comes to concepts in his music; the titles speak that well for him. Wake has made the first day of February with this new track; Happy new Month by the way!
Abantu Beira is an Afro Beat fusion with delivery mainly by rap and Afro Hooks and ย is produce by Paul Mugwera. Its an energetic performance reminding us of the past and the intelligence of the people who came before our time. He introduces the song in reminiscence; of a conversation he has with his “Jaaja” – Grandparent. The notion of knowing your history and know where you are going pervades the song entirely. The African tradition and its significance. Wake is truly a rhetorical person when it comes to his spoken word and rap pieces.
