HAKUNA MTU

Vipraco, art ya, social control,
Sociology ya poverty,
na psychology ya the ghetto,
G ako hustle, lakini,
F the five o,
KiKavuludi sharudi police reforms,
Vifo extrajudicial zifike kikomo,
Ashindwe rider wa the
red horse revelations,
Kaboom hakuna mtu
ni hu dem akikam through,
Ni ma fire in the hole!
Hakuna mtu anaconsole
muthii ako parole,
anasisitiza ukweli maishani,
haki street,
na maendeleo gishagi,
hakuna mtu ni mtemi katika kipaza,
hakuna mtu anataka kusimama,
pia hakuna mtu anadai
usawa na raha bila karaha,
ulimwenguni,
ndo kukiulizwa ni nani ako fere
kilinani kuadvocatia ukweli?
Hakuna mtu anajitolea bila kwere,
Kila mtu anapotelea,
hakuna mtu anatokea na kukemea
Injustice kwa society na
brutality ya ma five o,
Especially kwa wale
ma sheikh wa pwani,
Za kumwagia mse acid
kichwani ndo gani?
Hakuna mtu anaweza kukushika
hata ka umagandiza na kubangaiza,
Vina vikiganda skioni
mfano wa gundi.

NOBODY

Practically, the art of social control,
is about the sociology of poverty,
and the psychology of the ghetto,
gangsters are hustling, but,
fuck the police,
Like Kavuludi, return police reforms,
Let extrajudicial killings come to an end,
defeat the rider of the red horse in the
book of Revelations,
Kaboom, nobody
is this lady, when she comes through,
It is Fire In The Hole!
nobody is consoling
a person on parole
emphasis on truth in life,
justice in the streets,
and development in the countryside,
nobody is a tight Mc on the microphone,
nobody wants to stand,
also nobody is demanding
equality and happiness without turmoil,
on earth,
so when they are asked who is ready
like a giant/ogre to advocate for the truth?
nobody volunteers without question,
everybody disappears,
nobody appears and chants down
injustice in society and
police brutality,
especially for those
Muslin Sheikhs from the coast
how could they pour sulphuric acid
on someone’s head?
nobody is able to catch your mind
even if you are just relaxing and chillin,
rhymes sticking onto your ears
Like super glue.

Niamd

Konkret geht’s in der Kunst sozialer Kontrolle
um der Armut Soziologie,
und des Gettos Psychologie,
Gangster sind Hustler, aber
ACAB
wie Kavuludi, reformiert die Bullerei
Schluss vorbei middem außergerichtlichen Töten
auf dem roten Ross der Offenbarung den Reiter
rauch ihn in der Pfeife,
Kawumm, niamd
is diese Lady, wenn sie durchdringt
Geht in Deckung!
Niamd tröstet
a Përsōn am Palavern,
Emphase auf des Lebms Wahres,
Pravda auf der Straße,
und Fortschritt auf dem Lande,
niamd is am Mic ein tighter MC,
niamd moag aufstehn
und niamd will fordern
Gleichheit ve Glück ohne Aufstand,
auf Erden,
wenn man fragt Wers bereit
wie ein Riese für die Prawda
einzustehn? schickt sich niamd fraglos an,
todos verschwinden,
niamd erscheint und prangert an
die Nepravda in der Gesellschaft und
Bullereigewalt,
vor allem gegenüber
den Sheikhs von der Küste,
wie kamman nur wem Säure
kippen übern Kopp?
Niamd kann dein’ Geist inhaftiern
selbst wenn du nur chillst und relaxt,
Reime an die Gehörgänge presst
wie Powerkleber von Pattex.

Vive en: Nairobi, Kenia

L-ness, born in 1979 in Nakuru, Kenya, is the pseudonym of Lydia Owano Akwabi, also known as “Lioness” or “Madadadigital”, and is one of the most charismatic femcees of African Hip-Hop. She does not rap in Swahili or English, the two official languages of Kenya, but in Sheng, a hybrid language which developed in the slums of Nairobi and gradually became the lingua franca of the Underground there. The art of L-ness, well summed up as ‘Gal Power’, impresses with the directness and sheer energy and force of her delivery. For her, Hip Hop is an “international culture of consciousness” which possesses the unique power to bring together people of very different origins and education.
L-ness woerks as a radio presenter with VotuRadio Africa and together with the NGO Elimu Sanifu, organises Hip Hop workshops for disadvantaded schoolchiildren.
