The newly released Tay Grin`s “Tola” track that everybody is talking of has really come on the right time considering the response the song has received so far in Malawi music store; a platform that allow artists to sell their music online.
The song, “Tola” which dropped on Wednesday 22 March, is a dance song which was produced by Malawian producer Sonye and it features a Tanzanian female star popularly known as Vanessa Mdee.
Her voice really contributes to the sweetness of the song hence the reason why the song is selling like hot cakes on Malawi music store.
The beat starts off as a contemporary dance anthem with Mdee`s effortlessly executed vocals.
It then drops as the Nyau King himself goes in with his new Chichewa flow and traditional African drums kick in, expressing the character of the Nyau King.
The smash hit is filled up with three languages ( Chichewa, English and Kiswahili ) making it a song that can be listened to not only by people from one country.
Those that were born many years ago would relate to this song and taken back a bit as the song gives familiar phrases from old favorite rhythms , Bekeshu Bekeshu and Kantoletole.
The video of this song is another bomb. It was shot in South Africa by a Nigerian music video director, Sesan Ogunro.
The overall camera work is superb and the shots are clean.
The Nyau King has been in the spotlight after releasing Chipapa last year, Kanda and Sugar Mamie which all these listed songs had at least an international feature.
The three songs were on free download on Malawi music site while Tola is for sale in Malawi music store.
The Nyau King is definitely flying the Malawi`s flag international.
