BURG CITY RECORDS in Collaboration with tHE JB StUDiOs presents: ​THE CONTINUUM FREQUENCY: NEW BINI BE BRINGING A NEW BEGINNING ​AFRO-JUJU STREET BLUEPRINT & RHYMAL-CHAIN MANIFESTO (​BPM 86 • Deep Afro-Juju Groove • Brass Gold & Dark Black Aesthetic • Heavy Bass & Market Drum Execution) ​I. PROLOGUE — THE BINI INITIATION ​GOD know the root where the great river bend, New Benin blood line wey no fit break or end. From the moat to the palace, from the street to the stall, New Bini be bringing new beginning for all! No be copycat culture, no be imported chain, Na ancestral frequency driving through the heart and the vein. Hear the drum, hear the brass, hear the highlife horn, Original African future, right here it is born! ​[INTRO — SPOKEN OVER WARM VINYL CRACKLE AND RHYTHMIC KICK] ​Oya step back! Let the chronicler speak! Dem think say memory weak? Dem think say heritage leak? From the soil of Oba Adolo to the gateway of dawn, The rhythm is heavy, the blueprint drawn! JiNG & BiNG active, Burg City lock down, We putting the sovereign gold back on the crown! ​[VERSE 1 — THE STREET CADENCE & SYSTEM BLUEPRINT] ​I dey run through the city with the SQL syntax, Lyrical architecture stacking facts upon facts! Fast flow, slow fire, heavy bass in the trunk, Clearing out the garbage, cleaning up all the junk. Waffi street wisdom mixed with Benin history, Unlocking the vault of the ancient mystery. Query the database, check the bloodline trace, Original African walking with unshakeable grace. Na the Afro-Juju engine running hot on the beat, Highlife guitar strings playing down on the street. No virus can breach what the ancestors built, No room for the coward, no space for the guilt! ​[HOOK — CALL & RESPONSE, BRASS & CHOIR] ​LEAD: Who bring the fire when the system go dark? CROWD: NEW BINI BE BRINGING A NEW BEGINNING! LEAD: Who carry the blueprint, who carry the mark? CROWD: NEW BINI BE BRINGING A NEW BEGINNING! LEAD: What is the frequency? What is the sound? CROWD: AFRO-JUJU CONTINUUM, SHAKING THE GROUND! LEAD: Wetin remain? CROWD: THE ETERNAL CROWN! ​[VERSE 2 — THE RHYMAL-CHAIN STACK (ULTIMATE TIGHTNESS)] ​Money stack — power pack — energy back — track by track! Vision clear — nothing fear — atmosphere — drawing near! Rooted deep — promise keep — harvest reap — no loss sleep! Metal grind — future bind — genius mind — left behind! Morning dey grind, grind no blind, grind with mind, grind with kind — pikin for back, market for hand, future for plan, still shine! No light for street? You be light for street! No joy for street? You be joy for street! You be light wey no dey off — unretiring light! GOD see your labour, labour no be favour, labour be flavour, labour be saviour — market table to cradle, cradle to stable, stable to able! No be filter, no be glitter, no be shitter — na gritter, na glitter from gritter, na bitter to better! Waffi mama, Lagos mama, Benin mama, Accra mama — same trauma, same dharma, same karma to turn to armour! ​[HOOK — CALL & RESPONSE, WOMEN CHOIR + CROWD] ​LEAD: Who GOD love no dey retire for? CROWD: AFRICAN WOMAN ORIGINAL! LEAD: Who carry world for wrapper and still dey stand tall? CROWD: AFRICAN WOMAN ORIGINAL! LEAD: Who turn pain to power, small to tower? CROWD: MAMA! MAMA! ORIGINAL MAMA! LEAD: Wetin no dey retire? CROWD: GOD'S LOVE! GOD'S LOVE! UNRETIRING LOVE! Mama hustle — mama muscle — mama tussle — mama bustle — mama no rustle! Mama grind — mama shine — mama mind — mama bind — mama find — mama design! Mama pray — mama stay — mama slay — mama clay-mold-day — mama way-maker! Mama trade — mama braid — mama blade — mama shade — mama fade? Never! Mama upgrade! Mama crown — mama town — mama gown — mama sound — mama bound — underground ground-pound! Mama rise — mama wise — mama eyes — mama prize — mama skies — enterprise compromise! African Woman — no be drama, no be trauma-mama, na dharma-mama, na armour-mama, na farmer-mama, na former-future-charmer-mama! Ancient lore — open door — ocean roar — want no more! Benin wall — standing tall — breaking thrall — answering call! Script code — heavy load — royal road — code decoded! ​[BRIDGE — SLOW SOUL, WHISPERED STREET CADENCE] ​Listen close to the wind blowing over the moat, Every word is an anchor, every verse is a boat. You can’t erase the past when the future is written, By the hand of the creators who were never forgotten. From the banks of the Niger to the streets of Lagos, We carry the fire that the whole world knows. ​[FINAL HOOK — FULL ORCHESTRA & STREET DRUM] ​NEW BINI BE BRINGING A NEW BEGINNING! AFRICAN DIGNITY NEVER WINNING? NO — ALWAYS WINNING! THE SOUND IS SHARP, THE VISION IS CLEAR, THE KINGS AND THE QUEENS OF THE CONTINUUM ARE HERE! ​[OUTRO — FADE OUT WITH ACOUSTIC GUITAR & DISTANT CHANT] ​Let the record show. Let the archive glow. JiNG & BiNG active. Burg City running the show. New Bini... New Beginning. GOD is in the work. — Juju.
