Mapozi Classic, a musical duo that burst onto the scene in 2018 with their hit song 'Niambie', has released a new joint titled 'Umeniwasha', which loosely translates to 'you have made me itch'. The song, released on October 9, 2019, has elicited mixed reactions from fans and critics alike.
The song, which features Teejay and Master, tells the story of a guy who is restless and itching for a certain lass. While both artists gave their best in the song, some listeners have criticized the lack of rhythm and the repetition of certain words, particularly the title phrase 'umeniwasha', which is repeated for a whole minute in different variations.
However, the song's beat and video concept have received praise from some fans. The video, directed by Royal State Pictures, is simple yet effective, and the beat, produced by MK The Beat Icon, is catchy and perfect for a club setting.
Watch 'Umeniwasha' below and share your thoughts on the song.
