We've been keeping tabs on SA's BIG FKN GUN since they dropped the Zulu-rhymed house/dub mash "Pop Models." The boys now hit us up with "Wunga," a substance-based track off their upcoming EP. GUN's emcee Solomon explains:

Wunga is a drug that has a tightening grip on South African youth. It's a poisonous and addictive cocktail made up of the retroviral AIDS drugs, mixed in with rat poison, detergent and cannabis.

The synth-flanked track goes from a coercive -dealer perspective to that of the addict chasing that first high. BIG FKN GUN's Pop Models EP is out soon.
