“To understand the future, we must understand the past . ” – Vector
Vector who lived in the barracks on King George the 5 th road in Lafiaji knows all about the grind and sweat that it entails to becoming a force to reckon with . He also involved someone who understood all too well what it meant to live like he did in Lafiaji; his sister.
“It was very personal . I remember feeling really bad on the song with Johnny Drille as it made me remember the most heart breaking experiences of the past ; While recording with my sister who showed me how to sing when I was a kid felt super refreshing : she needed no audio effect enhancement. She was pitch clean perfect . ” - Vector
Falz the bahd guy , Dbanj and Tanzania’ s Vanessa Mdee are some of the other features on the track .
There are more surprises but we can ’ t give too much away .
Anticipate the # LafiajiExperience .
