well yeah the guitar's from a clash song, but mia also used it for her song, which is where esau and radioclit got it from. i've been a fan of these guys for over a year now and they just keep getting better
@TheFoxsup - Your ignorance appears to know no bounds. I'm sure not everyone likes your taste in music. The beat and melodies of what you call "Jungle music" is the basis of a lot of modern music. Would also be good if you could at least spell properly. Its called a Knobkerrie.
In actuality the Guitar riff was first performed by The Clash in 1982 it was second performed by this Esau Mwamwaya, at the time he was a little know independent "rapper" thus making it easy for someone semi established such as the shitastic MIA to steal his shit. It happens everyday in the music business, so stop being an asshole and forget about it because you cant stop the western civilization form stealing your things. I would know I'm part of that western civilization.
Another indicator is that the word TENGAZAKO means "Take what is yours" after the gunshots he clearly says "Take 'n hear my name" look up the lyrics if your skeptical on that, that phrase in now way shape or form fits into MIA's version whish ia about getting high and selling weed. WIN
haha guys. jeez. this is mias beat. diplo produced it. mia and diplo gave it to us before it was out. we did this version with esau. its diplo and mia song. but happy you like it! hope you all got the free album from radioclit and esau 'the very best'

well, technically he's saying "Take your mon-ay" after the gunshots, which is from the M.I.A song, but yeah, he still says Tengazako in the chorus.
