A breath of fresh air is the most exact label, you can put on Fundi Wake’s uplifting rap music. Life sounds like fun and games for the young rapper of Austrian and Tanzanian descent when he raps his heart out in native English. His swagger is impeccable and confidence is sky high when he raps about the finer things in life. There is no doubt in his mind, that Fundi Wake is already a star and with his bold personality added to the mix that’s potentially a lethal combination. Fundi Wake has, through the past years, developed from a young and restless rapper who preferred to spit bars till his breath ran out, to a more well-reflected and lethal artist who knows how to incorporate the pauses in between, to his natural breath and flow. His impressive English vocabulary gives him a playful perspective on the English-speaking rap scene in Denmark, where he brings life to stories big as well as small. Technically speaking, Fundi Wake is also a sublimely talented rapper who is able to combine the densely packed, rhyme-laden boom bap bars with a more playful approach to flow and melodies within the realm of trap music. The bars are compact with ever-present braggadocio and punchlines but the songs are allowed to breathe in melodic hooks that the young charmer has managed to perfect. Armed with an assertive delivery and a rap voice in a league of its own Fundi Wake picks up the gloves and goes to work with a declared goal: He wants to make personal songs to a broad, international audience and thereby create the sound of future hiphop by building a bridge between the underground and commercial hiphop.
