Kwame and a New Beginning - Ownlee Eue Album : A Day in the Life A Pokadelick Adventure 1990
When Lloyd Banks broke out earlier this year with his debut single, "On Fire," few people realized that Kwamé, a rapper-turned-producer once known more for polka dots than gunshots, was responsible for the single's infectious track.
Kwamé first made a name for himself in 1989 with the single "The Man We All Know and Love" from his debut album, The Boy Genius. Polka-dotted trendiness ensued. He followed that up with the equally popular A Day in the Life: A Polkadelic Adventure, which featured the hit single "Ownlee Eue," in 1990. However, subsequent albums, Nastee and Incognito, didn't fare as well.
As the mood of hip-hop began to change with more hardcore MCs like the Notorious B.I.G. and the Wu-Tang Clan rising to prominence in the mid-1990s, the fun-loving Kwamé found himself less and less interested in being an MC.
"I became disenchanted with the industry," he said. "I was tired of fighting for royalties and being so constrained. So I decided to focus on music from a producer's standpoint.
"It was hard for me at first because, as an artist, my stock wasn't that high," he added. "Therefore, it was difficult for people to see beyond the polka dots. People were afraid to be attached to a name like mine. Hip-hop is about the freshest and the newest thing that's going on — that's a hurdle I'm just getting over."
Those misperceptions didn't stop Kwamé: Over the last five years, he's crafted tracks for Mary J. Blige, LL Cool J, Dru Hill and JoJo, among others. He struck gold earlier this year when he teamed with Lloyd Banks and Eminem for "On Fire."
"Lloyd Banks and Eminem took that chance with 'On Fire' as the first single," Kwamé said of the song, which he produced with assistance from Eminem. "They thought it was hot and wanted to make it the official door-opener [for Banks]."
According to Kwamé, the track is an interpolation of the Mohawks' often-sampled funk classic "The Champ." "I knew it would be instantly recognizable to hip-hop traditionalists and still be hot for younger kids," he said. While "On Fire" has put Kwamé back on the hip-hop map, the acclaim hasn't come without its challenges.
"Everyone thought that Eminem produced the track," explained the producer. "I understand that because of Eminem's stature. It was frustrating, but when Lloyd started doing press he really acknowledged me as the producer.
"Now the doors are starting to really open," he added. "Now it's crunch time if I want to be a viable commodity. It's time to prove to those who doubted me what I am capable of."
With 15 years in the music game under his belt, Kwamé is taking advantage of every opportunity that comes his way. In addition to "On Fire," he recently produced singles for Will Smith ("Switch") and Missy Elliott protégé Tweet ("Turn Off the Light").
"Missy collaborated with me on the song's finishing touches and she is a genius," Kwamé said of the Tweet single. "I have always wanted to work with her."
As for "Switch," the producer is quick to note that it is not what you might expect from the family-friendly superstar. "It's not the traditional Will Smith record, but he's not trying to be a gangsta either," said Kwamé. "It's pop-oriented, but with a grimy element."
Kwamé produced several tracks for Smith's forthcoming set as well as T.I., Toni Braxton, Babs of Da Band fame, and the YoungbloodZ.
As for a possible return to the mic, Kwamé is not ruling it out.
"I don't know if I would do another album deal as an artist," he said. "I would love to do my own label situation, and I would be my own artist, but I don't want to do it just to do it. I want to expand hip-hop to another level. So it's not out of the question, but I want to make my mark as a producer first."

In 1989, aged 16, Kwamé released his debut album, Kwamé the Boy Genius featuring a New Beginning, which he also produced with the aid of Hurby "Luv Bug" Azor.
The 'A New Beginning' of the title refers to his backing band, which was unusual amongst emcees of the time. The album spawned the singles "The Man We All Know and Love" and "The Rhythm."
The accompanying music videos featured a polka-dot motif in the costumes and production design.
This was to become Kwamé's trademark and a hip hop fashion trend, as fans of his began wearing polka-dotted clothing.
In 1990, Kwamé released his second album A Day in the Life: a Pokadelick Adventure, a concept album about a day in the life of a high school student.
The album spawned the hit singles "Oneovdabigboiz" and "Ownlee Eue."
In 1992, aged 18, he released his third album, Nastee.
This album marked a departure for him, discarding the polka-dots and writing more sexually charged lyrics, in contrast to his previously playful, intellectual persona.
The title track was a minor hit but the album quickly fell from the charts. His fourth album, 1994's Incognito failed to chart.
In 2000, Kwamé reemerged as a music producer, sometimes working under the name K-1 Million.
He has produced for many artists, such as LL Cool J, Mary J. Blige, Keyshia Cole, Missy Elliott, and Christina Aguilera.
In 2004, he had a major success as the co-producer (with Eminem) of Lloyd Banks' smash hit song "On Fire."
In 2005, he had more success with Will Smith's single "Switch".
As a producer, Kwamé has sold over 30 million records.
In 2012, Kwamé teamed up with Vin Diesel to help score his web series The Ropes. He also formed the boutique label Make Noise, with signees including Beyond Belief, and released an instrumental album, Break Beat Diaries.
Kwamé has also written scores and original music for film and TV., including Drumline, Step Up 1 & 2, Stomp the Yard, Freedom Writers, The Comebacks, Coach Carter, and Fantastic Four and recently produced Vivian Green's fifth album Vivid.
He has also joined the hip hop group the Alumni, alongside Chubb Rock, Dana Dane, Special Ed, and Monie Love.

'HARAYA' (THIS FAR)
WRITTEN AND PERFORMED BY KWAME RIGII,
PRODUCED BY MOSES NJOROGE CLICKTRACK RECORDS,
MIXED AND MASTERED CLEMENT MUTUA CLEMENT JAMES PRODUCTION (CJP)
VIDEO BY DAVY BARBZ - QWETU ELEMENTS.
'HARAYA' is a Kikuyu word meaning THIS FAR.
A story of hope.
Life has been anything but an easy journey. I would say that the first couple years that I remember, were quite okay. But my environment started to change quickly after losing my Dad.
My past hasn't been perfect, but with everything that I've been through, I've seen things come full circle.
Even when some people gave up on me, it helped to know that at least God believed in me at my lowest point, and that has made me the person I am today.
This is a thanksgiving song to God.

You used the word always, and always is the key to every woman's heartbreak.::Laura: Why?::Rachel: Because we expect that he will always be there, we expect that we will always be loved no matter what we do or what we look like, well that is clearly not the case now is it, because we get fat and we get old, we get traded in for younger models every day. So the simple truth is the only always is that everything changes. And in my experience men's whims are the most changeable of all, so No, I guess is the answer to your question is no I do not want some guy to tell me that he is Always gonna be there to protect me from the scary noises at night because then I'm gonna know he's a liar. I can protect myself just fine thank you very much.
Debbie: No Laura, Rachel tells them the truth, not what they want to hear but the actual truth. And I think that's pretty admirable considering the fact that culturally as women we're conditioned to lie.::Laura: What are you talking about?::Katherine: Yeah, I've got to hear this.::Debbie: Alright fine listen, you know how a man if he has sex with like a hundred women he's considered a stud, but if a woman sleeps with like ten guys she's considered a whore, so how the hell does a woman not start feeling like she has to lie with the pressure of that kind of ridiculous double standard.::Laura: That's not lying , that's just not giving all the information.::Katherine: That's shady::Debbie: No that's justification.::Laura: No that's reality. If me weren't so infantile about confronting their woman's history then we wouldn't have to lie would we, I mean do you know how much easier my last relationship would have been if I didn't have to deal with the did you fuck him questions all the time.

KWAME - ONLY YOU
When Lloyd Banks broke out earlier this year with his debut single, "On Fire," few people realized that Kwamé, a rapper-turned-producer once known more for polka dots than gunshots, was responsible for the single's infectious track. Kwamé first made a name for himself in 1989 with the single "The Man We All Know and Love" from his debut album, The Boy Genius. Polka-dotted trendiness ensued. He followed that up with the equally popular A Day in the Life: A Polkadelic Adventure, which featured the hit single "Ownlee Eue," in 1990. However, subsequent albums, Nastee and Incognito, didn't fare as well. As the mood of hip-hop began to change with more hardcore MCs like the Notorious B.I.G. and the Wu-Tang Clan rising to prominence in the mid-1990s, the fun-loving Kwamé found himself les...

Kwame - The Man We All Know And Love (1989)
In 1989, aged 16, Kwamé released his debut album, Kwamé the Boy Genius featuring a New Beginning, which he also produced with the aid of Hurby "Luv Bug" Azor. The 'A New Beginning' of the title refers to his backing band, which was unusual amongst emcees of the time. The album spawned the singles "The Man We All Know and Love" and "The Rhythm." The accompanying music videos featured a polka-dot motif in the costumes and production design. This was to become Kwamé's trademark and a hip hop fashion trend, as fans of his began wearing polka-dotted clothing. In 1990, Kwamé released his second album A Day in the Life: a Pokadelick Adventure, a concept album about a day in the life of a high school student. The album spawned the hit singles "Oneovdabigboiz" and "Ownlee Eue." In 1992, aged 1...

'HARAYA' is a Kikuyu word meaning THIS FAR. A story of hope. Life has been anything but an easy journey. I would say that the first couple years that I remember, were quite okay.

Even when some people gave up on me, it helped to know that at least God believed in me at my lowest point, and that has made me the person I am today. This is a thanksgiving song to God.

When Lloyd Banks broke out earlier this year with his debut single, "On Fire," few people realized that Kwamé, a rapper-turned-producer once known more for polka dots than gunshots, was responsible for the single's infectious track.
Kwamé first made a name for himself in 1989 with the single "The Man We All Know and Love" from his debut album, The Boy Genius. Polka-dotted trendiness ensued. He followed that up with the equally popular A Day in the Life: A Polkadelic Adventure, which featured the hit single "Ownlee Eue," in 1990. However, subsequent albums, Nastee and Incognito, didn't fare as well.
As the mood of hip-hop began to change with more hardcore MCs like the Notorious B.I.G. and the Wu-Tang Clan rising to prominence in the mid-1990s, the fun-loving Kwamé found himself less and less interested in being an MC.
"I became disenchanted with the industry," he said. "I was tired of fighting for royalties and being so constrained. So I decided to focus on music from a producer's standpoint.
"It was hard for me at first because, as an artist, my stock wasn't that high," he added. "Therefore, it was difficult for people to see beyond the polka dots. People were afraid to be attached to a name like mine. Hip-hop is about the freshest and the newest thing that's going on — that's a hurdle I'm just getting over."
Those misperceptions didn't stop Kwamé: Over the last five years, he's crafted tracks for Mary J. Blige, LL Cool J, Dru Hill and JoJo, among others. He struck gold earlier this year when he teamed with Lloyd Banks and Eminem for "On Fire."
"Lloyd Banks and Eminem took that chance with 'On Fire' as the first single," Kwamé said of the song, which he produced with assistance from Eminem. "They thought it was hot and wanted to make it the official door-opener [for Banks]."
According to Kwamé, the track is an interpolation of the Mohawks' often-sampled funk classic "The Champ." "I knew it would be instantly recognizable to hip-hop traditionalists and still be hot for younger kids," he said. While "On Fire" has put Kwamé back on the hip-hop map, the acclaim hasn't come without its challenges.
"Everyone thought that Eminem produced the track," explained the producer. "I understand that because of Eminem's stature. It was frustrating, but when Lloyd started doing press he really acknowledged me as the producer.
"Now the doors are starting to really open," he added. "Now it's crunch time if I want to be a viable commodity. It's time to prove to those who doubted me what I am capable of."
With 15 years in the music game under his belt, Kwamé is taking advantage of every opportunity that comes his way. In addition to "On Fire," he recently produced singles for Will Smith ("Switch") and Missy Elliott protégé Tweet ("Turn Off the Light").
"Missy collaborated with me on the song's finishing touches and she is a genius," Kwamé said of the Tweet single. "I have always wanted to work with her."
As for "Switch," the producer is quick to note that it is not what you might expect from the family-friendly superstar. "It's not the traditional Will Smith record, but he's not trying to be a gangsta either," said Kwamé. "It's pop-oriented, but with a grimy element."
Kwamé produced several tracks for Smith's forthcoming set as well as T.I., Toni Braxton, Babs of Da Band fame, and the YoungbloodZ.
As for a possible return to the mic, Kwamé is not ruling it out.
"I don't know if I would do another album deal as an artist," he said. "I would love to do my own label situation, and I would be my own artist, but I don't want to do it just to do it. I want to expand hip-hop to another level. So it's not out of the question, but I want to make my mark as a producer first."

In 1989, aged 16, Kwamé released his debut album, Kwamé the Boy Genius featuring a New Beginning, which he also produced with the aid of Hurby "Luv Bug" Azor.
The 'A New Beginning' of the title refers to his backing band, which was unusual amongst emcees of the time. The album spawned the singles "The Man We All Know and Love" and "The Rhythm."
The accompanying music videos featured a polka-dot motif in the costumes and production design.
This was to become Kwamé's trademark and a hip hop fashion trend, as fans of his began wearing polka-dotted clothing.
In 1990, Kwamé released his second album A Day in the Life: a Pokadelick Adventure, a concept album about a day in the life of a high school student.
The album spawned the hit singles "Oneovdabigboiz" and "Ownlee Eue."
In 1992, aged 18, he released his third album, Nastee.
This album marked a departure for him, discarding the polka-dots and writing more sexually charged lyrics, in contrast to his previously playful, intellectual persona.
The title track was a minor hit but the album quickly fell from the charts. His fourth album, 1994's Incognito failed to chart.
In 2000, Kwamé reemerged as a music producer, sometimes working under the name K-1 Million.
He has produced for many artists, such as LL Cool J, Mary J. Blige, Keyshia Cole, Missy Elliott, and Christina Aguilera.
In 2004, he had a major success as the co-producer (with Eminem) of Lloyd Banks' smash hit song "On Fire."
In 2005, he had more success with Will Smith's single "Switch".
As a producer, Kwamé has sold over 30 million records.
In 2012, Kwamé teamed up with Vin Diesel to help score his web series The Ropes. He also formed the boutique label Make Noise, with signees including Beyond Belief, and released an instrumental album, Break Beat Diaries.
Kwamé has also written scores and original music for film and TV., including Drumline, Step Up 1 & 2, Stomp the Yard, Freedom Writers, The Comebacks, Coach Carter, and Fantastic Four and recently produced Vivian Green's fifth album Vivid.
He has also joined the hip hop group the Alumni, alongside Chubb Rock, Dana Dane, Special Ed, and Monie Love.

Hai Luv, Kwame
Oneovdabigboiz
[Verse One:]
Well I stumbled on a picture kinda made me laugh
A photograph, what brought me right back to the past
When I was a youngster
Quite nerd type, that wanted to be amongst the
Older, bolder, colder crowd
With fat gold chains and strolled around
In tucked silk suits, hundred dollar Bally boots
Hat to a tilt and a felt substitute
Fashions my have seemed to have worked
But it seems I was a fake, and fakes look like jerks
All I could do is scheme
Hoping that one day I'll be on the top of the team
No matter how hard I tried, I'd just collide
With being a fool and an old guy
It didn't work, and that annoyed
And I asked myself why can't I be oneovdabigboiz
[Chorus]
[Verse Two:]
Now I remember one day in the 7th grade
A new girl came to school and I must say
I slid, skid, crashed and got a crush
On her and all other things seemed like a bluff
I wouldn't dare to speak, didn't say a word
Trying to be a big boy, I just became a nerd
Doubting myself, thinking I'm all sissy and all
Either I was too short, too shy, or too small
Which was a sign of ignorance
So I brought up confidence
The next day I'm panicking
Stiff as a mannequin
What do you know
She doesn't even show
But there's tomorrow, the next day she came
Arm and arm with some dude, with some gangster name
Hopes and dreams in a flash were destroyed
All because of the fuss of oneovdabigboiz
[Chorus]
[Bridge: Tasha Lambert] [singing]
I'm the one that told you not to worry
You'll grow up to be someone special
Take your time and don't you hurry
'Cause soon you will be
[Chorus]
[Verse Three:]
They all have eyes, they all have two feet
They used to pick their girls up but on a train we meet
Why can't I be a big boy I used to ask myself
And self said "Why do you wanna be someone else
Why do you wanna wear what someone else wears
Or get a cut, like someone else's hair
Or be seen in someone else's glare
You know what I'm saying (you're right)" YEAH!
I'll do my own thing speak my own slang
Be in my own swing, know what I'm saying
'Cause baby I'm a star
You know who the hell I are
It's paying off a lot
I had everyone rocking the streets and wanting the polka dots
It's OK, this life is I enjoy
And it's cool being Kwame, not oneovdabigboiz

Comment on Is it time for a third political party in Sierra Leone? by kmk
