Thanks so much Kweli, for this Music-Suggestion :)

A music journey through the world
I am a Kenyan and I feel proud that Jaguar’s songs are being appreciated world wide, fyi, kigeugeu, the title of this song means a chameleon(in the literal sense) but metaphorically it refers to a person who is un-reliable or says one thing but means the other. This song got really famous in Kenya because many people could relate to that, in the song Jaguar asks ‘whom can I trust because everyone is a Kigeugeu’
so mucht thanks for these great words! Love them :) And I understand him more and more!!
peace

thanks so much! I like it too :)
Xandi,
I’m too much in hip hop mode right now—that’s almost all I’m listening to. I’m even surprised (yes, I am) that I recommended this track.
Onward!
Yeah, actually, I don’t listen to much Hip-Hop, but in Africa, I found great artists and love their words, like Emmanuel Jal :)
