Khaligraph Jones is by far one of the most sought-after rappers not only in Kenya but across the African continent, and he’s soon going to extend that reach to global if he continues doing what he’s doing in the music industry.

The rapper who recently disclosed about his recent project with Nyashinski without saying anything to give away what they were up to is gradually becoming a force to reckon with and his work ethic speaks for itself.

Khaligraph Jones released a song dubbed ‘Punguza Kashehe’, a piece of drill music that almost everybody in the hip hop scene is jamming to.

The song doesn’t prove Khaligraph Jones’ versatility alone, it proves way a lot more than that.

The ‘Punguza Kasheshe’ song proves that Khaligraph Jones can make a hit record from almost every other beat that he jumps on.

A few months ago, he jumped on his official DJ’s beats, a Reggae/Dancehall beat, and owned it.

Khaligraph totally owned the beat that ZJ Heno sent to him to be included on the ‘Final Destination riddim’ together with Jamaican heavyweights. ZJ Heno featured Tingseh, Docta, Just Imagine Africa & Serro, Lavosti, Duane Stephenson, Ce’cile, A Pass.

Khaligraph Jones has been consistently owning the Kenyan hip hop scene for years now and he's not showing any signs of relent any time soon. He intends to make sure the East African hip hop scene is heard globally. Photo credit: Instagram/khaligraph_jones

In his recent offering dubbed ‘Punguza Kasheshe’, Khaligraph Jones makes his flow look easy. He also danced on the official music video.

The entire song which the Kayole born rapper rapped in Swahili and Sheng(combination of Swahili and English) is quotable but the second verse is where he snapped completely and we’re here for it.

Here’s the second verse of the ‘Punguza Kasheshe’ hit record;

Heh heh
No smile for the cam, and I’m never in the right mood (Woo! Woo! Woo!)
Ask about him in the hood, that nigga Khali is a tycoon (Jones, Jones, Jones)
Cross me ka haujipendi, guaranteed you go die soon (Haha)
Top rapper though nitakuwa nadanganya nikisema pesa zangu ni za iTunes
Juu niko Spotify na Boomplay, na bado Deezer pia selling music, Tuesday ni Tuesday
So why you debating ’bout who is paid?
Mi nalipwa pande zote, nyi bado mnang’ang’ania 2K
Roc-A-Fella, I’m the new Jay
Blu Ink is the label, usipime, tuko juu we
Nawakunywa kama Kool-Aid
Punguza kasheshe ama ugeuzwe kichungi ‘fore it’s too late (Uhh!)
Heh heh, sura ngumu utadhani [?] (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ka hutaki majukumu gathee, basi vaa mpira (Kwenda!)
Vile mi hutema moto, utadhani Godzilla (Shwaa, shwaa, shwaa)
And we all know that there is only one killer (Woo!)
Comprende? We don’t pretend
We just pull up your crib when the choppers are loaded (Brr!)
Comprende? We don’t forgive
We just shoot out your brains, and I swear we gon’ love it (Pow, pow, pow)
Ain’t no verses for free, nigga, work on your budget (Word, word, word)
One and sixty on top, and there’s nothing above it
Going psycho, gotta get these demons to stop (Stop!)
They messing my head up, I’m crazy, believe it or not (Woo!)
These snitches get stitches, it’s better you flee the cops (Run, nigga)
Despite my condition, man, I’m still the cream of the crop
Heh heh

I am a Pan-Afrikanist to the core and love to let the world know what they are missing in Africa. I might do that through music and some interesting posts from time to time so please bare with me.

I will always be real though, that's a guarantee.
