Un Conditionally Bae....Sauti Sol and Ali Kiba!!!

I Know guys who read my blog dont follow me on Facebook,and if they do,Most dont take my predictions or requests serious,I remember some time back i had requested a Collabo between Kiba and Sauti Sol, and Hey,i know its been long but my wish was granted,Right?I tweeted Kiba and Sauti sol and actually i got a retweet, not bragging though, But when i heard that their Collabo video was out,i felt some tinge of accomplishment.
Now,on Request by my Little sis Naisae Kipesha i had to do this review.

With all honesty, The song was not a disappointment, any way,what do you expect of two legends from two worlds, a great hit,right?
Seen the video yet? watch it Here, Amazing work, quality Video, and shot at my soo favorite Beach Hotel(to visit soon though).
The Audio for me is perfect,an anthem of sorts, beats Dance able,a weekend song i should say,That reminds me,Leo ni Furahi day.......time for #UnConditionallyBae
The vocals by Ali Kiba,Uuuuuuuwi, si the guy is gifted, somebody say Halleluya......literally,kijana ana Sauti!!!!!
Pardon me for this though,The song does bring a woow from me, as in, yes, al listen, then that's its. The lyrics too, Hazijanigusa vile......

KBC's Zinga la Asubuhi MAESTRO Bonnoe Musambi and Angua FM Comedian Kidasi Cha Mbeo Scramble to have a Piece of East African Film Stars WAFUASI THEATRE GROUP.

"You are tearing us apart bwana! Who should we listen to yet we love you both at equal measures?  Next time mjipange! " Wafuasi Theatre Group fans decry.

By now you probably have heard about Kenyan new stars in Film industry, Wafuasi Theatre Group from Taita-Taveta County. If not, then you are a robot, or an alien or maybe you live in utopia! It's undoubtedly the talk of the nation in matters movie industry.

There's never been a group from the Coastal side that has attracted so much media attention than Wafuasi Theatre Group from County006. History has done justice on my factual findings to this moment I am realising this article!
The group is almost creating a beef between two fan-magnetic morning radio shows! One is national side and the other is a county based radio. You thought devolution rifts between national and County exist only in political circle? You are wrong! Entertainment is joining the league too. So KBC's ZINGA la asubuhi Maestro Bonnie Musambi is fighting for prime time with Anguo's Kidasi Chambeo for their fans in Taita Taveta County? Hahaha, interesting!

7am is the prime factor. Who will win the battle of magneting the Taita Taveta people? National vs County? I am really waiting for the response from the people.

Catch Wafuasi Theatre Group Director Granton Mwandawiro a.k.a Papaa a.k.a George Panya on ZINGA la ASUBUHI with Bonnie Musambi anywhere in Kenya and for those in the whole Coast region and Nairobi, catch up with Dokta Dambel their official Movie Director and Ali Mwandigha a.k.a Mr Tulu Mpango Mzima their Chairperson live in Anguo FM with Kidasi Chambeo and Mercy Mwazo at the same time. 7am be glued to any of the two.
I hate being split between the two, But hey, a gi
