The ten minute song features new artists. Two female rappers, Bey T and Silverstone Barz as well as three male rappers, Breeder LW, Chiwawa and Rekles. Khaligraph obviously took the lead as attorney in what is a court kind of setting. His brother being the judge and the featured rappers, witnesses.
“These are the rappers the masses been requesting, ladies and gentlemen it is important that you follow, I’m your attorney but you can address me as Mr. Omollo.”
What does the song entail?
Khaligraph had been busy campaigning for this song ever since he thought about it, well that’s what we think. He shared posts that hinted something good cooking.
Khali Cartel 3 touches on issues upcoming talented artists not getting airplay, people not taking note of good music and also appreciating those who aided in promoting talented youth in the country. The likes of Willis Raburu for example. It definitely speaks volumes, are we not happy this is being addressed?
“Industry ngori yaani ku maneuver si ni struggle, interviews mi siko booked ka library haina vitabu. Story ni ile ile huwezi winda subiri mzoga… Big shout out to Willis Raburu kushow support again and again.”
