' compilation introduced Tanzania's singeli scene to the world in 2017, and the label followed the multi-producer, multi-MC collection with several primarily instrumental studio albums by some of the genre's producers. While the earlier compilation focused on , is a showcase for , run by , the artist responsible for the mind-blowing 2019 album . Produced entirely by and spotlighting several young MCs from Dar es Salaam, the album is a marathon session strictly for the headstrong, with some tracks clocking in at nearly ten minutes. If anything, the music has only gotten faster, harder, and more manic over the years, with absurdly fast tempos pushing up to around 300 beats per minute, and explosions of cartoonish drops, airhorns, and samples littering the tracks as the vocalists breathlessly spit out brain-scrambling verses. seems to have a stronger, smoother flow than the others, and is more melodic and slightly more excited, but there's little point in singling out any of the artists as being the best in show. That said, 80 minutes of singeli is sure to be an endurance test for most listeners, and you'll probably know within the first few minutes if you're going to enjoy it or not.
