the album it's called fresher than before fresher than before is about coming back and i have been through so much and that is why there's a water element coming out of the water like you come out of the it's like a baptism of yeah come out of the water fresher than before fresher than before so uh there's there's that uh nitroji stylistic devices is i can't swim but i had to do that video also so he did the video he did the audio he lived how is it doing it as a family business we've seen beyond san jay z have their own problems we've seen kaili and travis have their own problems we've seen families who are in the business together having their own problems how is it for you for me it's you know you'll always have problems you'll have problems with strangers and you'll have problems with family but i prefer to put the problems hapo because at the end of the day you'll have to solve the problems if you kusana someone else will leave that project like a channel project but come on into lazima lazima money journey lazima you have to sort out those issues you have to finish so you just but at the end of the day if it's good it's usually very good like kus where you're coming from where you've been where you're going someone understands your vision it's so much easier to work like that although kuna conflict but it's always better to work like that all right i like that there's this we're going to be talking about fresher than before towards the end because you're going to be performing it live exclusively on white five or exclusively yes there's this girl power thing that you're pushing yes what inspired you to push this girl power movement thing because there's so many of them out there and the queens have always been complaining they need that chance their chances now why what inspired you in particular to push this first of all um as a woman you go through a lot of challenges before when the when the when the kusama rapper sg what in the game there's so many challenges go through as women and because we feel you don't have a support system we we tend to overreact and let's call it even attack each other because we feel like well you don't understand my insecurity is not realizing everyone has insecurities everyone is just to create the awareness that all of us are struggling through something one thing or another so the important thing is to know you're not alone that was the the the the motivation behind that because personally I've gone through so many challenges and I used to really like some at the point I was like maybe it's just me then you start talking to him and then you realize oh it's not just me then you realize you start putting people more people and more people together you're like wait you're all in the same boat then why are we not sailing together like why are we not you know my interest is in your approach some people take the hashtag route some people take the streets when you know and I could demonstrate what is your approach to this gap or mine is mine is very simple I have my currently what we're doing we have a like a small group of of women where we meet we discuss issues then we all work together my pa my dancers my friends so like when I'm about to launch the next project we meet and then we're like okay so what have you been going through then we just have conversations but then we're thinking now of making it a bigger movement it's called a sweet militia movement you know yeah one girl at a time one day at a time one girl at a time one day at a time that's the hashtag we were looking for the hashtag I think we found it one girl at a time one day at a time done okay so in the long run you want to see a country that appreciates women at least yeah all of us know what our mothers have gone through all of us know where our sisters go through you know like even uh for some of the personal things like something that happens to you that is not your fault that you're being charged for and you're like it's not it's it happened you know at some point we should we'll now get to government and be like address some issues I know if Karen and Michelle are here on Goliza do you have to be a mom to join no all girls all ages whatever whatever so they get there invited oh definitely Michelle and Karen go invited to the gut for a moment one girl at a time all girls all shapes all sizes all colors all ages yes all right because even we need to start in the younger the better because we need to mold them as they grow don't answer but me I'm not beautiful because you know let me let me tell you now what what made this so personal my daughter came from school one day and then she's like mommy I'm not light skin I'm not beautiful wow and that really touched me and I was like no you have melanin melanin is good for you know we are the rarest yes if that didn't work so now I was like you know what this thing starts really and she's four years old this thing really starts when you're really really small so I found that did you go to the root of the problem did it come from a teacher did it come from the fellow I think I think it comes from both because you find that maybe the teacher will favor the pointy without even knowing you know without knowing do to kona inferiority complex even as women well like we sing the light skin pointy is getting more attention from the guys so we tend to now want to be their friends where they have pointy friends and white friends and all that you have nothing against it nothing against them it's just you see a lot of us tuna and also I think colonialism has a lot to do with it so it's such a it's such a mindset thing that has come from way back when and I think it will to solve it we need to be informed we need to talk about these things we need to talk about this thing we need to air them and this is what your movement is all about appreciate each other whatever color thank god for Lupita by the way for raising that flag yeah wow look at her we appreciate you so much we appreciate you to Shuga and see what you're doing and uh so you know what I'm about to ask yeah I think you have a you have an idea yes this very thing yeah very uh people are claiming she went back to factory settings do you appreciate the fact that she's appreciating yes because um what it is it's I know Vera from way back when but we've not talked in so many years she was really struggling in the moduli industry when I met her she was dark skinned and she kept telling me how come all these light skin chicks are the ones getting jobs how come I'm not getting jobs you know what I'm saying or they'll get jobs but she'll get paid less so when she turned the light skin she's like look look at the results immediately she's getting more jobs she's getting paid but then at the end of the day she's like you know what I love my skin as who I am and I cannot fault what she's doing so you stand with her yes you know she I embrace she grew she learns she's like you know what I'm still me at the end of the day I'm still doing the same thing so let me just accept my skin so we need to appreciate and respect her as appreciate yourself we should not judge her for whatever she did bigger to Vera Siddica we can't you know the problem is this also you know because she's in a public I heard it now there are so many women going through the same thing I know a couple of people who they started bleaching then they some of them get pregnant then they start seeing like they're like hey hey is this what I want to teach my daughter we love you so much yeah from me it's just about accepting yourself all right the reason we are today is the music yes i sing on the cake just to get to know us yeah all right so fresher than before I know it's deeper than getting into the water and coming out cleaner yeah all right what does fresher than before mean uh in depth in depth kwa pool ndani place sa ufiki first of all the pool represents a place of discomfort a place of somewhere you can breathe when you're under yes first of all latex it was like what is that you know it's getting what the hell is happening what if I die right now but then making peace with it because you know when you're drowning kushokomaji you know supposed to panic if you panic you die that is a lesson that it hit me on that I was like okay okay okay keep calm relax when I kept calm when I kept calm I was fine then when I got out of water I was like oh okay I understand this I was actually shooting that shot for another video then when I came out I was like wait this is fresher than before because I came out you know better than I was I've come out with a new understanding and a new knowledge and comfort in being uncomfortable and just accepting it and moving on wow this happened by chance it just yeah we were shooting for another video for another song not the whole video but that particular shot because I'm shooting I'm also doing my other projects as I was in the album yes so this particular shot we added to the video because I felt like it was more relevant for this video than for the next video so moral of the story uh in this comforts and in all that pain don't panic there are just the sun comes in the morning all right and you're going to come out fresher than before but the sun comes in the morning smarter than before yes yes wonderful shigemzi we have uh there's the longer version and there's the shorter version watch the longer version on my youtube it has poetry that explains now the whole thing I put my angelo
