What has been dubbed as the craziest collaboration of the year between Kwaito start, Ees, and Kwaito artist, Ees, and well-known local band, Penilane, in a new video project called Hate Campaign, is due for release locally this Sunday.
Ees has teamed up with the band on one of two songs he features on in the new Penilane Album called, Wear It Wear. The latest collaboration is further earning Ees the all time accolade as a rules- breaker, something he is accused of having been doing since entering the entertainment industry. The Video of Hate Campaign was completely produced by the artist themselves; one could call it a “boy’s weekend on the farm”. The artists then set up their own locations with lights and camera to capture that true Namibian farm and Nam flava lifestyle by providing uniqueness to the world and showing what Namibian music and lifestyle hast to offer.
The Song was a collaboration project that was done via the internet with EES and was then mixed & mastered by the Rock/Gospel Grammy winner Alan Sanderson from the United States. The music video has been send to music channel platforms all over the world and has already gotten back some great responses from music channels in Europe like PutPat.tv and Tape.tv that have already agreed to play it on their systems for a wide audience in Europe.
“This phenomenal collaboration has the opportunity to break into the international music scene, as it combines the best of Namibia and a sound that is very easily adopted by the western sound. Let’s hold our thumbs and hope that Namibian music once again shows the world what it is made of and let’s also keep supporting local music,” says Ees.
