Foto Moto Song Review
I must say that I have had mixed feelings about this
song. It was one of those things you
hate on at first and then later find yourself grooving to it. And yes,
Benzema’s Instagram posts had a lot of influence in getting to groove to it. But
even so, at this very moment, I wouldn’t say it’s something to be entirely
proud about. Here me out, I have my reasons.
Like every song review on this site, it is entirely
based on my opinion. How I feel about the song once I’ve heard it. How I feel
about the song after watching other people hear it. And how I feel a couple of
weeks later hearing the same song from different sources (In this case,
Alehandro’s IG).
Noti Flow…
Right now, I applaud her for the lyrical guts in
this song.
At first, I was judgemental. Yes, I judged a girl I
don’t really know for seeming too thirsty and looking way too horny in a
creative show. I judged her for expressing herself, for going out of her way to
create a creative music video and again, having thirsty lyrics. You see, most
non-virgin girls do get horny. Actually, they all do. What separates this lot from
the latter are those confident enough to tell a niggah that they want the D and
those that feel like it is the guy’s duty to know that she wants the dangalang and
offer it to her.
Nimecome bila Ngotha(panties) na
nyonginyo(socks)
Being in a confident lane right now, I want to one
day visit a guy (my guy) with no panties and socks.
I’m glad Noti Flow sang this song. I know now more
than anything that confidence is important. Also, that caring much about what
people think is toxic to yourself. I mean, look at her. She has campaigned two
things to us and put herself out there to be judged, did she care? I hope not.
I should say that I am no longer a hater. I am not a fan. No not yet. I am a
happy cheerleader. Go Noti. Flow in your confidence.
Benzema and the Beat
Like most people who watched this song, I watched it
because it was starring Benzema. I enjoy his songs. I happily dance to them,
make love while they’re playing, cook in their background beats… I mean, I love
his lyrics (except that line on kaa
na mama yako where he says something about taking advantage of drunk girls.
I didn’t like that part of the lyrics).
Nonetheless, Benzema is the fine guy with that sexy
aura that most girls can’t explain. [My friends have constantly accused me
of either crushing on him or having some sought of affair. (I promise that’s
not the case. Also, may be a story for another day)] I have also seen guys
groove to his vibe because, why not? He speaks to them, they relate and that’s
what matters in music. It is safe to say that he is actually likeable.
Knowing the kinds of songs Benzema features in, like
Do re mi, (Crazy beat, also, still my all-time favourite) I was certain of
something from Foto Moto. A good beat. Yes, that catchy tune that makes you
sing the words even when you don’t want to.
You know that tuned vibe that you can’t help but understand
or relate to? This is exactly what happened to me.
And now, whether I’m planning to approach a
potential lover, or simply hanging out with friends, I’m happy to say that the
picture is hot. Foto Moto!
