Highfield, Glenview to Mbare Zimbad
Bulawayo, Gweru or Mutare Zimbad
Whether white or yu black ya mi breda Zimbad
One more dead, there goes aneda Zimbad
Zimbad Zimwhat? Zimbabwe too hot
Welcome to Zimbad - dis ya ah no Jamrock
Zimbad Zimwhat? Zimbabwe too hot
Welcome to Zimbad - dis ya ah no Jamrock

Well ah mi Rassie Ai ah no lie mi ah tell
Zimbabwe red hot like one furnace ah hell
From yu reach dung west hungry beat down chest
Coulda till de soil but all labour no rest
Do no too success or police will arrest
Trump yu up wid a charge dash de key and forget
Beg yu defend yu tings better mek dem secure
Dem will tek from the rich and dem tek from the poor
Dem no biznis yu name dem no care where yu grow
Do no mek dem bitter or yu mek dem raw
If yu step pon dem corn dem will chop off yu toe
Government reap where dem have not sow
Couldn't poor people dem want tax somemore
Babylon motive ya now expose
I 'n I ah de Ruler de Old Conqueror
Better yu don't linger don't com round ya
Tings will get sticky gun rinse round ya
Tings get thief if yu blinks round ya
Dash corpse ina ditch till it stinks round ya
We no biznis if a tourist round ya
Bare thump and kick fist to fist round ya

Zimbabwe got gangsters, fraudsters and swindlers
Nuffa dem ah government officer
Zimbabwe got pimps and nuff drugdealer
Nuffa dem ah police officer

Nuffa dem ah priest and pastor
Child molester, carnal mind, child abuser
Nuffa dem ah headmaster
We have cockehead , prostitute and informer
Nuffa dem ah get shot round ya
People don't never tired mek a riot round ya
Better run if you ever hear de sound round ya
Say dem bad but I bet Mugabe colder
Dem ah stone when de Ole Stray dog ah boulder
Yu no member people house bulldozer
Think a lie yu no member Murambatsvina?

Blackbeat build a talking drum dung ah Belfast runtings like dat

I need 2 be honest black

i've downloaded tha track... n well...tho i loved the concept
i didnt feel it that much. This is honestly the first (n only track )i've
eva heard by Rassie, but it didnt appeal 2 me as i'd expected..
his delivery n timing's a bit 2 hapharzard for me (but then again, thats just me)..

from a lyrical point of view he's defenetly above average , as compared
2 most zim artists i've heard... but.... i'd still put my money on
Laygwaan fo this one... {i know they used 2 be in a group} at the
same tym i'd still give respect fo lyrical content tho :lol:

Just one questions,when Rassie says:
" Zimbabwe red so till Major E run lef' dat
Booker T ketch flight him no touch dung back "

wateva happened 2 these dudes anyway?^^

Every opinion counts but at the same token if you can't understand what
" Zimbabwe red so till Major E run lef' dat
Booker T ketch flight him no touch dung back " means; perhaps dancehall ain't really the medium you wanna be dabbling in, mebbe stick to hip hop as you may have a better grasp of the lingo. Major E and Booket T left Zimbabwe fi guh look greener pastures son; that's exactly waht it says above- doh!

tru.. :lol:

Ndeip yako Batsi, long tym

[Taf1]

Actually what i think a lotta niggaz referrin to is the fact that the vocals sound a lil low saka the instrumental overpowers em at times, with that tz harder to hear what ue sayin... and a comment i got from one the homies here hanzi yo adlibs mamwe are a bit off for what ue were tryna do. Beat-wise i like yo instrumental coz tz different and def no generic bullshit we dun here all de every de... meaningful lyrics NO DOUBT my fav is the chorus mayne ZimBad is jus cool dhemet mhen. Well possibly ue can rework it if ue wish i mean ue need us to rate and review so ue take di direction ainnit... so if ue rework it myt as well drop it so that we compare n see waa gw1 fi real... otherwise tz all love Ras!

For the most part I have noticed that many posters on this forum make posts without really listening to any of the shit I bring on ya, i don't mean to blow my own trumpet but I know a little bit more than the average zimbabwean MC when it come to lyrics whether on a dancehall or hip hop tip. Just becos mi nah spend de whola mi time on internet websites putting my music on ya to be critiqued by people who are hating long before they here the message - what's the point?

Listen the lyrics and delivery and recognise that this is raw - I am not trying to be a pop idol or an urban groover or whatever... I am representing me and trying to share not only my music but my little brothers and a host of other real artists from Zimbad. But all I sense from post to post is a kind of grudging resentment more than anything else. I ain't saying feel my or any body elses shit - but when you listen to my beats on likkle tin pan speakers, dis it, then turn round same way and talk bout oh now yu feel it becos of rae rae rae- fuck that. Come with something betta than what I'm bringin cos yu betta know that what I'm putting on here is just tricks and games none of the shit I put on here except for kingpinns' shit is a final cut but there most likey won't be anymore drops on this site cos vamwe venyu muno taura shit imi makatanga kunyora matune in the last 5 yrs!!!

Then unu ah tell Rassie Ai fi step up him game... nuggas are laughable on ya.

[batsirai]

:lol: :lol: :lol: BLAK I DONT KNOW Y U SO ANGRY BUT THAT WAS MY AND THEREST'S HONEST VIEWS...PLIZ DONT ARM TWIST US.
