September 13, 2019, marked the release of Ethic's highly anticipated single 'Chapa Chapa', a track that promises to take the music scene by storm. The quartet, comprising SWAT, ZILLA, SESKA, and REKLESS, has been making waves in East Africa with their club bangers since their debut in May 2018 with the hit song 'Lamba Lolo'.
However, their journey to success was not without its challenges. Their previous single 'Figa' was removed from YouTube by A.I Records, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group, after it was discovered that the beat was not originally theirs. According to sources, the group was given the beat by a producer who believed Ethic would be the perfect fit for the song.
Despite this setback, Ethic has continued to push boundaries and redefine the Kenyan music scene. Their new single 'Chapa Chapa' is a testament to their growth as artists and their ability to create music that resonates with their audience.
From their humble beginnings in Umoja Estate in Nairobi City, Ethic has come a long way, and their music has become a staple in the Kenyan music scene. With 'Chapa Chapa', they are once again proving why they are one of the most talented and sought-after groups in the industry.
