about

Komla MC vs Fold is the unlikely combination of two expats in Leeds, UK. Hailing from Accra and New York respectively, Rob (Komla MC) and Seth (of the band Fold) were brought together by having kids at the same school and united in their undying love of hip hop.


The spirit of this project lies in celebrating an unusual mix of cultures and the unique, shared perspective of two fish out of different waters. Victoria Falls blends Komla MC's West African flow with Fold’s trademark funky weirdness yielding something fun and even a bit cheeky.

lyrics

One two, here comes the five six, bizarre spit
Flow like Victoria Falls; that's it
Come through, take down flagsticks, its that sick
Glow like equatorial hotness

Now here is something you can really feel
I'm just a man, I too have my Achilles heel
Phat beats, no blemish, stainless steel
Cold snap makes this sort of fat congeal
Warm it up and the consistency returns
Sub-par raps: they make my guts turn
My people haven’t got that kind of money to burn
Real underground earthworms, five hearts learn
We ain’t buying but they still be selling
That soft core they be peddling
I don’t rhyme for the sake of riddling
Like Chuck said; think of the children!

One two, here comes the five six, bizarre spit
Flow like Victoria Falls; that's it
Come through, take down flagsticks, its that sick
Glow like equatorial hotness

This ain’t no birds and the bees rap
Komla MC, he could talk underwater
Kente backpack full of weapons for the slaughter
Nourishments for the sons & daughters, scholars & gangsters
What part of the game is that?
That kind of crime just creates a copycat
Change tack, rap attack, challenge that cack
Back to back wack tracks, take it right back
Or your back out you need a chiropractor snap
Put it back see your osteopath or masseuse
Somebody; anybody to put your spine back
To where it was before it went slack
Its the return of the mack
With a briefcase and a rucksack into Bach
But not the back, sack and definitely not the crack
That ruined too many cats

One two, here comes the five six, bizarre spit
Flow like Victoria Falls; that's it
Come through, take down flagsticks, its that sick
Glow like equatorial hotness
