AUDIO | Hard Blasters Crew – Pata Potea

· Leave a comment ·
Hard Blasters Crew

Today is Thursday, and we are honoring The Hard Blasters Crew, a prominent Tanzanian Hip Hop ensemble from the 1990s. Our focus today will be directed toward their third and final album, which was released in 1999 following its production at MJ Records.

This accomplishment became possible after the addition of Joseph Haule, known professionally as Professor Jay, who had previously been credited as Nigga J. This album featured notable tracks including “Chemsha Bongo,” “Mamsap,” and “Chuzi Limekubali.” The entire project was produced by Ludigo Bishota.

The featured composition of today is titled “Pata Potea,” which is also present on this LP and includes contributions from Big Willy, born William Shundi, in this outstanding work.

“Pata Potea” is a Swahili term that translates to “obtain or forfeit,” referring to a game of chance, a bet, or a risky endeavor in which one might succeed or fail entirely. Hard Blasters Crew created an impressive track employing this term. Terry Msiagi, performing under the moniker Fanani, also provided the vocal hook for this track. Hook – “Pata Potea, Pa Pata Potea. Utacheza Pata Potea kurukia usichoweza.” This is the only song on the album in which Big Willy performed two verses, specifically the opening and closing verses.
