Indigo Saint and RayKaz might be just be two more artists to the uninitiated. Still, to dedicated fans of Zimbabwean rap music, they're two of the country's most lyrically gifted rappers. So it certainly felt like a moment for the genre when the duo announced that they had joined hands for the long-awaited collaboration, "Can't Afford." An anthem for the hustle and pursuit of dreams, laden with quotables and verses of lyrical prowess.
Produced by Area 51, the track has a gritty-sounding instrumental that's met with a calm yet confident cadence from Indigo. The end result is hip-hop with captivating storytelling, and you can't help but be infected by the vibe.
If there's one statement that can sum it up, it would be: "I could have all of the money and gold in the world but there's things that I just can't afford." The collaboration speaks to purpose and things worth more than money, with a certain defiance.
Indigo Saint has had a busy year of releases, which has seen him work with renowned names like Takura and rising talents like SAI.
"Can't Afford" is available across all major streaming platforms.
