Video: Esau & Radioclit & Marina Having FUN

story THE FADER

In case you did not believe Esau’s claim to be the “Phil Collins of Africa” watch these videos from his Last.fm show at the Old Blue Last in London. Dude’s voice is like if God or whoever said Hey you know what? Billy Ocean is kind of sweet, but kind of whatevs. I mean “Get Out of My Dreams”? That shit was unforgiveable. Let’s try and get it right this time. And POOF! Esau Mwamwaya. And beyond that, the video above, which is less about Esau singing than him riding Radioclit’s insane new “Secousse” instrumental, confirms that Marina, formerly of Bonde do Role, is totally essential. Make the jump for more videos of “Warm Heart of Africa” and “Tengazako” (<-- still the best).
