ICYMI, the most anticipated song by Fena Gitu and Wangechi dropped yesterday

Female rapper Wangechi and The Fenamenal Woman Fena Gitu dropped one the freshest, most anticipated East African Female collaboration of the year. The single titled ‘They Don’t Know’ was released yesterday Friday 17th July via Wangechi’s sound cloud account. Fans from both camps affectionately known as “fenatics” and “wanjeshi” have been patiently waiting for weeks. This was after Fena Gitu’s instagram teaser post (photo) showing Wangechi and her in what seemed like the background of a studio with the caption ‘Surround yourself with dopeness and you will become dope’ sparking a lot of interest after blogs began speculating on the impact from such a collaboration terming it “a match made in heaven”.

The single ‘They Don’t Know’ is an urban, fresh, upbeat dance anthem song that fuses Fena Gitu’s urban soul style with Wangechi’s soulful new school feel coupled with her well-known lyrical delivery. The single is part of collaborative project that was initiated last year by Goethe-Institute Nairobi dubbed ‘Ten Cities’ that saw selected artists, DJ’s and producers from across the world participate in the project.

Fena Gitu is best known for her singles Fenamenal Woman, Brikicho, Jabulani and African King off her debut album Fenamenon. With an impressive performance C.V, Fena’s soulful yet electrifying performances qualify her as one of Kenya’s finest and most unique acts in recent times. Wangechi broke her silence early this year by dropping her independent project ‘Wangechi Sessions’ which are series of live studio video recordings of Wangechi and her band ‘The Watooz band’ performing some of her fan-favorite songs from her expanding music collection. Thereafter Wangechi released her first comeback single titled‘Cardiac Arrest’ early last month, which has been ranked as part for the dope singles to drop in 2015.

The single which she (Wangechi) terms as ‘…a redemption song’ and the music video that followed thereafter, have both garnered massive praises both locally and internationally from music enthusiast. It was followed by Wangechi’s first live performance post accident this was during Mos Def exclusive event.
