Juliani’s “4 by 6” theatrical video finally out

This dude never fails in bringing out his message clearly to the fans. He just has this way of portraying facts through lyrics and images that no one else seems to have grasped.

Revolutionary and realistic, Juliani’s “4 by 6” is that type of song that every Kenyan, in-fact, every East African can relate too. And what good timing it has too. Just when ‘politricks’ is at its peak, he releases this track and video. He couldn’t have chosen any better time than this to launch the track.

What I love most about the lyrics of “4 by 6” is its parabolic nature. If you are slow (sorry about that), it will actually take you some time to interpret some of the messages that he is trying to get through in this song. Take this for instance, “kuku imefungwa kamba refu, ina-feel free. Before ijue, iko kwa plate kando ya chips.”

Let’s just give credit where it’s due. Juliani is a brilliant lyricist and there is no debating that. My personal favorite lyrics in the track, “bulb ikiwaka kwa kichwa utalipa KPLC kwa kila good idea,” gets me smiling every time. You can get the “4 by 6” lyrics right here. The video… don’t even get me started on that. The concept illustrates the lyrics, word for word. The theatrical puppet controlled Juliani represents the common mwananchi, and the “4 by 6” bed, I would say, represents his lifestyle.

This is not the kind of work you would expect from an ordinary artiste. No, my friend. This is one of those extra-ordinary ones. One that you would listen to his whole album, without skipping a single track.

Check out the new video below, just released.
