A rad track to start the year on the ausindies blog.
N'Fa Jones, formerly of groundbreaking hip hop act 1200 Techniques and now residing in London, dropped the rather excellent new track Wayooy about a month ago. While 1200 Techniques haven't been active for years, N'Fa's collaborations with Australian hip hop royalty have never kept him too far away from the lime-light. Over the years he's worked with The Black Eyed Peas (long before they turned into this band), Roots Manuva and even Heath Ledger. Just last year he also featured on award winning albums by Drapht and 360... the man has been busy.
Wayooy is a groovy and deep, mid tempo, M-Phazes produced track complete with african marimba loops, horns and joyous shouting by what sounds like dozens of people... "WAYOOOY, WAYOOOOOOY, WAYO YO YO"... There's a verse or two by the mighty Roots Manuva while N'Fa's uniqe voice and rhyme show he's at the top of his game.
