Freetown's #LimbaSwagg Rapper Buba Samples Fugees On 'Itaquallah'


Freetown rapper Buba is spearheading a new #LimbaSwagg movement in Sierra Leone. The US-raised/Sierra Leone-based emcee recently made his proper introduction with the music video for "Itaquallah," a melancholy slow burner that samples Fugees classic "Ready or Not." Buba dons a badge of Sierra Leonean pride on his debut single as he rides over the steady hum of Enya's sampled vocals. The track is the first single off his Freetown Boi mixtape (which you can listen to here). Find out more about #LimbaSwagg via Buba's site and watch the "Itaquallah" video below.
