Professor Jay Ft Alikiba Calling is an afropop hitsong that expresses about patience and the need for empathy toward those who suffering. It reminds us, that during the highest degree of difficult, there does exist hope, and that perseverance may result in success.
The collaboration brings two Tanzanian music legends together: rapper Professor Jay, known for his lofty lyricism, and vocalist Alikiba, who perhaps has the smoothest melodic styles. Both of them have made lasting impacts on Bongo Flava-a genre that fuses local rhythms with international influences.
“Calling” is a mush of Rap and R&B, telling a story of suffering and surviving. It is a story of a young boy who has to face a lot of challenge in life, the loss of his mother and mistreatment at the hands of a stepmother. The struggle that had been marred by emotional abuse and neglect is presented via rap verses by Professor Jay and stands to give a pretty clear vision of despair.
