Since putting Esau Mwamwaya on the cover of FADER #52, we have made a point of hanging out with him whenever possible. He rolled through The Fort in Texas with Johan and Etienne of Radioclit and then stopped by The Let Out, our weekly show on East Village Radio, a couple months ago to sing some of his hits live and direct (video above). If we had some of that big money, we would just hire him to be the Happy Dude on staff, but we will take his new music as no short consolation. "Ntende Uli" is from The Very Best's forthcoming fall album on Green Owl, Warm Heart of Africa, and it is a powerful jam. We're pretty sure Esau will sing it when he plays a handful of tour dates this summer along with, hopefully, a good chunk of Warm Heart. Check the dates and the stream at the link below.
