Burna Boy and Colombia singer, J Balvin link up for the official music video of their joint record titled Rollercoaster. This track is taken from the Grammy award winning singer’s latest album- Love, Damini. Time is of the essence and Burna Boy`s “Love, Damini” is profoundly the outcome of hard work and a transition of a niche; coming from the old into the new (Afrobeat to Afro-Fusion).
ROLLERCOAST featuring J Balvin is an impressive track by Burna Boy. One can understand his musical genius when listening to Love Damini; one can feel the authenticity of Burna raw passion for lyricism; hip-hop; and ridiculous audacity; which shows the African Giant showing off his pride as African, not just Nigerian.
LYRICS; I don’t want you to dey waste my time
I don’t wanna wait ’til it’s all over
This life is a gift from the most high Jah
That is why I’m thankful for all?I?have
‘Cause?the fast life?really ain’t all?that
So now I try to be pure, aha
No be like say I no dey shey normal
I just get with that in Jah…
“Last Last” which is the first single and a song about his breakup from Jamaican international superstar “Steflon Don” samples Toni Braxton; a milestone move that makes his sold-out show at the Madison Square in New York a treat to fans; as he gave them a preview of the song. With the depth of the percussion; fusion of hiphop; reggae; pop; High-Life; R&B and Rap; Jazz mixed as one mouthful morsel, one can argue that this is Burna Boy`s most definitive moment of his sound.
The possibility of blending diaspora SOUND WITH AN ESTABLISHED SOUND, from Africa, is best brewed in this LP; which is far the coolest as far as meeting that new international standard. It`s dominated by artists like Kendrick Lamar; Drake; Ed Sheeran; Justin Bieber; The Weekend and J Balvin; and you can hear it on songs like Ed Sheeran-assisted “For My Hand” and the J. Balvin feature titled “Rollercoaster”.
