Let The Dead Die

That’s it, that’s my take on the Nehanda statue fallout or fall-in. Let’s let the dead die....

mUsain Bolt – The longest freestyle by a Zimbabwean rapper weighing in at 59mins – 22sec. Its fitting that title is carried by Zimbabwe / African  lyrical heavy weight mUnetsi. Ironically titled mUsain Bolt but its anything but a short dash! We have highlighted a few of our favourite lines Verse is when there is a change in instrumental. We only managed to fit in up to 19 minutes! Each Week mUnetsi releases two freestyles on monday #mUMondays and on friday #FearMeFridays. An impressive work etchic and passion for the art. Two studio albums, Muzukuru WaGogo and Chaminuka Zimbabwe Super Hero Listen on soundcloud https://soundcloud.com/munetsi / https://soundcloud.com/munetsi-1. Follow him on twitter @incrediblemU.

INTRO
Zimbabwe, you now rocking with the best. //

Tell your favourite rapper;
To touch his android phone because his writing sucks.
This is how you do it you sissies.
Move; its Monday boo.
You ready?

Have a nice round of applause;
As we bring on to the band stand.

Onto the stage.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen
And I’m very happy that you came here.
I would like to make you laugh;
I would like to make you cry.
I’m very happy to be here x 2;
I am very happy to be here.

I’ve been blessed with the gift to just rock;
O-ff the top of the dome;
Until I starting bangin my chest  like I’m King Kong;
Empire State building is the same old feelin when the ozone layer starts;
It’s gettin broken and you outta here;
mUnetsi solo winds like photosphere;
And we see the vision even if it’s not as clear;
As it we wanted it to;
I even supplant you;
And if you are the Governor then I’m coming to reck atcha;
Um, I there to raise new temperatures;
Get the aperture while I get the fuller um, picture.

I’m a killer;
True assassin;
You still browsin;
And um Brooklyn folk home;
Takin it home;
And um chillin n’ lounging on the loafer;
Rockin this from the dusk to the A.M.;
MCs, yo yo;
You can’t play him;
You better stay away;
You best beware cuz um outta here;
And um well aware of my environment;
mUnetsi got consignment;
I’m so militant;
The belligerent forces that I do have;
Ndinorova munhu wese;
Who doesn’t have a shave in their head;
That’s 98 per cent of the population;
I still crave for kusvipa;
Nhasi zvinhu zvazoipa;
6 October and um ‘bout to rock over;
Kunge matombo ekuEpworth;
Um ‘bout to give birth to a lot of rappers and then give ‘em death;
That’s called um;
Building and destroyin;
That’s called um;
Firin and employin;
Yeah’ and I do this for enjo –oyment;
In a way you can’t avoid this;
Ndanga ndada kukosora;
After asara though some saliva yadzika;
Down the wind pipe;
Man I been tyte;
Ever since like 1988;
Yo kazhun type;
Because God blessed me;
You can’t curse me;
You study my freestyle then rehearse me;
Just to see if God really uncursed me;
I do this from the banks of my memory.

With flow so I make ‘em withdraw;
Cuz you nothing but a window shopper;
And um ‘bout to come in helicopter;
And um pullin these cars over;
Kunge maPolice Officers kuCalifornia;
Rest in peace;
Ma emcees that  over saturated kunge population density yeCaledonia;
Man  um onto ya;
I still haunting ya;
Like a ghost of Fafner Hall;
Um ‘bout to make another cellphone call;
Microwave energy;
Ndichipa myself some synergy;

Without the biological classes;
My emcee they sweeter than molasses;
They like suckerin;
They still suckin kunge vasati varumurwa;
Ndinovagura head up;
Zvichireva kuti you decapitated by my guillotine;
It’s emancipated kunge black people;
Ironically vachiri kupfeka chains and the rock whips;
Um that deep;
So deep in fact that Atlantic Oceans seems like the shallow end of swimming pool;
And my gene pool yaka studwa ne mascientist;
They withdrew like compounds, atoms and even molecules; 
Then it put the whole human race to ridicule.

I belong to Mensa;
IQ yangu when um spittin swiftly is 150;
Um still shiftin kunge magear aNigel Mansell when he was doing F1;
Um formula racing;
Um embracing, a lot of concepts and philosophies;
Mainly from the East;
Every rapper claims that um a beast;
So, ever since this I’ve been rockin triple 6;
I hang around;
No, I didn’t want to say that but I been around;
You got no flow;
mUnetsi hands like clothes in wardrobes;
Oh my God;
Oh my Jesus;
mUnetsi is on his knees, praying that there is crisis ine humanity;
We’ll be dealt with soon;
I can imagine that the future without MuNesti is so dim;
It’s so dark;
It’s so grim;
You are fishy kunge salmon nebream.
Ma emcee anonyuruwa from Kariba;
So its still, rhyme after rhyme;
Fishing competition;
Line after line;
My God, I’m so divine triple 7 entering heaven;
Ndiri paradise, ndino rimwa kunge garden of Eden;
Then after this after this, I tell you;
Musadye muchero uyo kani;
Uri forbidden;
You don’t wanna listen;
Ndokudzingai down to hell;
Where you can chill with the devil;
Um protected in this paradise with an angel;
Ine flame and sword;
The game is bored;
Because mUnetsi came like a concord;
Nose down;
When I lift off its nose up;
 I’ve got the gift of Gab;
Um so sharp I might stab;
Mweya wako until wakusvika kuna Mwari;
Pauno enter denga ogoridwa kunzi ah;
Mwana ari kubleeda.

I can’t pretend that;
That um wack I’ve never been sub-par;
Mabars angu pandaingo szvipa ever since the first verse;
Made emcees stand in amazement;
Straight up to the ceiling from the basement;
We in the building kunge cobra yered;
Kwa kwa kwa P.D and dead;
Vanhu vese vano laugher but instead;
I was bred as a stranger;
Hip hop messiah;
Ndakakurira mumanger;
Ndiani a’dakuzviita anoketa;

It’s really hard kufreestyla pabeat rinotaura;
But i do it like its nothing;
Becoz its nothing;
You emcees writing like its something;
Put your Blackberry away;
Go suck away;
And you can tuck away;
The new day;
Tichiunza 7 December or October;

Yes the MuNday;
Um introducing maemcee they were giants;
Um reducing them down to a pulp;
Ndiri as cold as the summit;
Iri kumaAlps nemaHimalayan mountains;
Ha – ha Mount Everest;
While you smoking Everest.

mUnetsi put it better than the rest;
Ndiri ZIMSEC;
When it comes to testin these kids;
I do good deeds;
Good Samaritan;
mUnetsi half martian;
Like Malvern but emcees they start dwelling on past issues;
Zvimwe zvacho zviri petty;
You not ghetto no more;
You look pretty;
So fabulous;
I rap for 2 hours;
Now maemcee they come softer than maruva;

And it’s quite curious;
Like your sexuality;
Probably i’ll be the greatest emcee this world will ever see;
Cuz  i rap from the top of my spirit;
Ndinenge muface uye nda’fem yemalimits;
Limitless when he swallowed that pill;

So that I could go continuously;
And keep it liver;
But dai ndadisina amoles in my lips;
It would become unpalatable;
