Lex LaFoy has been around the SA creative scene in for quite a while, and emceeing is among one of her specialties that she has become well-known for; killing it both on the field (battling and freestyles) and in studio. This single, ‘Vuk Ekseni’ is just a snippet of what she has to offer on the M.I.C.
The joint is proudly produced by Durban homeboys, The Nutscratchers and sees Lex spitting her raps strictly in IsiZulu in the first two verses, before switching it to the universal tongue in the last verse right after the thumping, House inspired transition. See, the song basically talks about waking up (early) and going out there to get it, getting your grind on! The chorus says it all for summated emphasis, tweaked to sound deep with the heavily dropped pitch on the vocals.
As for the beats, damn! You gotta give it up to The Nutscratchers…
