Come to think of it, Stunner ridding a Dancehall riddim? I’ve asked some of my peers and they were like, “Is he experimenting or what” and others were like “hant anotamba naT-Man here” (isn’t it he hangs out with T-Man).
Despite spending 15 years in the Hip Hop game (some might say Urban Grooves), Stunner who has been consistent all over the years making hits and representing the country regionally and internationally decided to jump on a Zim Dancehall Riddim.
The track which is called Fu*ck It or Shamwari (friends) was produced at Legendary Music by Dj Gwyte and JMP on the 16 Inch Riddim.
In this song Stunner sings about fake friends who only hang out with someone because of something else. Friends who doesn’t give a f*ck, friends who only know you when it comes to drinking and who you only know when you’re at work.
The chorus goes like, “Fuck it shamwari isingazive kwandogara/ Shamwari inondizivira kubhawa/ Shamwari inogara ichichema nzara/ Unobvunza chikwereti chiri pasi pe 20”
The song has already been rated as one of the best amongst the other ones on the same riddim. JMP posted on his Facebook page that although it is hard to select which song is the best on this Riddim, Stunner’s song is one of the best especially coming from a Hip Hop artist.
After listening to the song I think Stunner did justice to the Riddim, he stayed in his lane, his verses were stuck to the theme of the song. As a Hip Hop artist on a Dancehall Riddim I give the track a 7/10.
Maybe what I might have found not appealing is the voice which he used on the first few lines on the intro. He had dope bars and rhyme but I think he tried to imitate those “typical Zim Dancehall voices” (I hope you know what am saying) which many Zim Dancehall cats use.
Anyway, salute to Stunner, the track is dope and you can download it HERE. You can also follow him on Twitter and Instagram @stunnerzim
