Gilad has by far made a huge statement in the Kenyan music scene as an artiste who sings fluent Swahili which has seen him gain fans not only in Kenya but across the east African region because he is an Israeli man singing fluent Swahili, I mean, who wouldn’t be impressed by that!
Gilad has worked with some of the best artistes Kenya has to offer in the game today, and now he has teamed up with the one and only Naiboi to release one of the memorable records you will get to listen to this year and probably the rest of your life because it’s a timeless record.
The record which these two great established artistes worked on is called ‘Nisamehe’ as produced by Magix Enga and you know Gilad is known for making hit records if nothing else and now that he has worked with Naiboi, it’s nothing but fireworks.
Gilad who now looks like a hunk plucked out of a Hollywood movie set rocking some perfectly groomed beard and a bald head(just how the ladies like their men, best ask The Rock) pours his heart out on the ‘Nisamehe’ record blessing the record with his powerfully remarkable vocals that always reminds us why we fell in love with him for the very time we heard him on his first ever hit record ‘Unajua’ a couple of years ago featuring the lovely Wendy Kimani.
The musical chemistry displayed by Gilad and Naiboi on this record is unprecedented and it’s so seamless and uniform in a way that most people won’t be surprised if they’d work again in the future, in fact they will be looking forward to it.
Naiboi
Naiboi proved that he can act if he wants to as the character he played on the cameo makes you catch feelings on the down low and that’s what great characters do and even his verse will forever resonate with any man anywhere on earth because men go through what he portrayed on the cameo every day.
Check out the quotable lyrics of Naiboi below and tell me if you won’t catch feelings when you watch the music video and sing along to the lyrics at the same time.
oh please forgive me
nimekosa mara kadhaa
kadhaa
na bado nakufwatanga ma
believe me
imma do everything I can
to make it work
you know you make me better
without you sioni kitu better
this time natwanga kupepeta
my baby hakuna kuteleza
kuchelewa
so come back and hold me tight
mi ni wako
you know you’re mine
let me feel you
just one more night
nisamehe
one more time
