We have been enjoying ‘Welcome 2 WaKanda’ more than we should. There’s something very nostalgic in it, a primal call that draws us to it. We think it is related to the old-school nature of the track: championing a fierce retro, boom-bap style, the listener is instantly thrown into the 90s, exploring an artistic formula where a decisively lo-fi beat complements charming and groovy rap vocals. Penned by Austin-based MC Big Blak Brutha Nasty aka M.C. MauRiceaRtis, ‘Welcome 2 WaKanda’ is an impressive offering, showcasing the full dedication and rap passion of the talented rapper.
Lyrically, the track assumes a very universal and accepting meaning, perhaps one of the biggest strong points of the track. ‘Wakanda’ is described as a state of mind that transcends socio-economic status. It is a place where everyone can find happiness, regardless of their circumstances. This ethos shines through the record, as Big Blak Brutha Nasty aka M.C. MauRiceaRtis raps about the importance of valuing oneself and finding joy in life’s simple pleasures.
In essence, ‘Wakanda’ is life, it’s exactly the place where you are at, right now. So enjoy it.
