Jafaris' World
The previously more monolithic Irish hip hop scene is benefitting from an increasingly more diverse range of artists. Percy Chamburuka AKA Jafaris is at the forefront of a crop of artists knocking at the door of the international music industry.
His debut album, ‘Stride’ [see our review here] represented trying to make sense of life’s journey; reflecting on past experiences, learning to exercise self-care and pre meditating potential pitfalls. Jafaris’ potential is frighteningly evident; his pop infused hooks, rapid fire flows and charismatic nature suggests he has the tools needed to weather the competitive storm of the music industry.
"Everyone has a part to play in Jafaris, I don’t even hold Jafaris as my thing, It’s more like a team effort.”
"Now it’s like nah forget the UK they have their own thing, forget America we need to build our own thing."
