The song “See You!” off of their album Journey was what got me hooked with the music video being on replay. With some social commentary interlaced within the themes of their songs, they front authenticity at the core of their music and each song is a new way to embrace every “weird” thing about them. Flaunting the weird and embracing it. Their beats reflect it effortlessly, their raps blend into that and impose a subliminal message of just … taking it easy.
Their album Journey sounds like traveling into space and landing on brand new civilizations in different galaxies but seamlessly co-existing with that and make the journey your own. Psychedelic, playful and careless. The melody they sing in the chorus of “See You!” Tugs the rest of the song into place and genuinely stuck in my head because it feels like a bratty child explaining to you why they're right and you're most definitely wrong as they pick up their toys and play away from you with a newfound joy. Another music video that comes to mind is for their song "On The Ground" dancing in egypt with the pyramids as their background talking about smoking hashish, I mean like yeah what else are you going to do in egypt.
Nene also has a solo career with a bunch of cool music videos that show off her personal style more. Yurufuwa Gang have some dope tattoos as well, one of my favorites is the one Nene has on her torso and I can’t exactly remember what she said about how she got it but she is the type of person to act instinctively and collect the stones to her path as she struts along. (Found the video where she talked about it !)
