Mr Dutch and Burna Boy link up for “E No Finish” video
It's a nostalgia satisfying collaboration
It's a nostalgia satisfying collaboration
Since releasing “Antidote” featuring Reekado Banks, Mr Dutch has seemed on the rise to mainstream Nigerian music. With a feature from Burna Boy on his latest single, “E No Go Finish”, he’s certainly closer to being a household name. And yet, it’s the performance, rather than the flex of the collaboration that guarantees it a place in a lot of playlists well into the festive season.
Kel P produces the mid-tempo buffet of traditional harmonies set to a comfortable pace for a slow wine on dancefloors. Over the percussion that swirls around the guitar riffs, horn samples and a vocal sample of someone chanting in a native dialect, Burna Boy dusts up the rusty old books of proverbs, opening by saying “Dey No Dey Find Black Goat for Night/ Even With Torch Light, You No Go See Am”. And if his bad-boy impression from his past dealings with the media isn’t enough confirmation, he breaks down his new mood saying; “Wetin You Do Me/ I Go Do You Back/ You Know Say My People No Dey Carry Last”. While Mr Dutch’s indigenous dialect matches with the high-life beat, Burna Boy infusing some Yoruba lines to the nostalgia satisfying ambiance.
