Credited as the first collection he put out and notably a Kopala-Shona cultural lingual EP. Formerly known for deepening his lyricism in English, Mutale Miccigan’s High Off Booze serves as a woke-wino’s phase with an unapologetic expression to the society and Kamitondo.
Although the 6 tracked EP carried more hooks in Shona, it extends how one’s expression is despised as they are under the influence of booze there by keeping it gritty and socially aware, however, balancing a raw tone, that’s according to:
a political agenda as described on the tracks Bakaso which explains the corrupt heart of Politics by greed rules that are just bait and F the Police which reflects how corrupt and biased the police department is and how it all affects society
a social concept driven by money and how the rich get advantage over the poor and how the society treats women and men as the tracks Salary and Mpaka Litente (Ichola) explains.
As many tracks were recorded and Executively Produced by Kanaboy of KANA SOUND, Muta’s aim was to capture social cues from a possible vivid point. The duo-lingual EP has kept a replay on tracks like Tatu which features Muta’s old time peer and BestFriend EL Louis TheeYungKing and Ubwile / Imipambe with A-ALI from Sudan. Recorded as a demo project, the unfiltered EP captured singles like Mpaka Litente (Ichola) which encourages hustlers who never had a safety net.
Raised from the concretes of Kamitondo in Kitwe, every track sets a tone of survivor, anger for freedom and dreams shadowed with ruthless bars, big beats and an altered storytelling to capture a canvas of a society that fades of its morals.
