Appreciating Somali Music.

Post by The-Screw »

i need the lyrics for this song called "Eedan La Yaabee" by Baastow. i swear it gave me goosebumps and all kinds of emotions listening to this. i specially like the part where he's sings about "oon iyo xareed". :P

you guys are so used to listening to these cartoon rappers all day, what do you know about this? lyrically, this song is up there with the best. i'm not interested in the music itself, i never listen to a song just for the music, i'm a lyrics guy. words mean a lot to me.

Somali music suc.ks big time, I can only stand banaadiri music when I feel like niiko sometimes but honestly most Somali music makes me feel like shooting myself. First of all they're too long, secondly most of the singers don't have a good voice and thirdly, the rhythm is always off key and everything just jumbled up. I mean, when are we going to see some real instruments being played by some real musicians and songs sung by really talented singers?

I think you'll probably only find like 20 decent tracks if you're lucky when you listen to all the Somali songs ever made.
