Kapella and Mr. Raphimus takes it back to the 90s, NSFW though

2 mins read

Kapella has been putting on for the city of late both as a rapper and as a music video director directing some of the new acts in the hip-hop scene, even in the trap game.

The former Coola Gang member has collaborated with yet another flame in the music industry today, Mr. Raphimus of Lukenya Movement to take it back to the 90s where almost all singles were all rhymes without any hook whatsoever.

“The collabo originally was an idea that came up in a studio session. Sometimes when one of us has a session we invite other artistes to bounce ideas off of and get energy. ” Kapella said speaking in part about how the collaboration with Mr. Raphimus came to be, “Modest dropped the beat and we just started going off. We wanted to take it back to a time when tracks were just all rap no hooks. And it’s a song we had done a while back and it still feels fresh and different so we did a visual and dropped it for the masses.” he went on explaining.

“Its different from what’s trending but it’s still timeless. And working with Raphimus is always a blast. Broski is talented. It’s always a chance to change the culture. And he had the single on his album the genesis so it was about time we did a video. 🙏🏽” Kapella added saying how much of a privilege it is to work with one of the best in the game today, Mr. Raphimus.

The record dubbed ‘Bila Chorus(which translates to “without Chorus”)” by no doubt is trying to change the hip-hop game as we know it without reaching.

The record is about bars after bars and the way Mr. Raphimus goes in on the record, there’s no way the record could disappoint.
