“WA PRIZE, also known by his 90s stage name Chris Third PRIZE, is a legendary Cameroon-born songwriter who skyrocketed to music industry fame during the 90s by delivering chart-topping hits both in Africa and the Diaspora. Among these was the contagious mid-90s anthem “Africa Zaboudaba”. Taking a hiatus from the limelight, he’s now back in full swing, armed with a fresh and vibrant gem dubbed “WA SO”. This sensational tune masterfully marries traditional African dance vibes with pop and soul elements, creating a mesmerizing auditory cocktail.
You have to love how nothing has been overdone here; the mix is excellent and the production is top-notch. The end result of that is this remarkable arrangement that shrewdly cuts across two distinct worlds with such creative finesse.
And if you are the sort who loves dancing like me, then consider this your new favorite dance anthem. Immediately after the impeccably crafted beat kicks in, you’ll start feeling the need to move in time with it – that’s the beauty of it.
“WA SO” is essentially a love song that affirms one’s sincere affection for a special individual in your life. The memorable chorus, delivered beautifully, will resonate in your mind even when the song has ended.
The music video is another fascinating element of this track altogether; I couldn’t keep my eyes off it. The dancers really did an awesome job, and their stunning moves will have you hooked from start to finish.
This is such a gracious blend of the African sound with the international flavor to engineer a track with a crossover appeal, and the icing on top of the cake is that it is danceable; who wouldn’t want such a masterpiece, to be honest?
