The land is good, the land is fine
Gold we have, diamonds we mine
Yet we fight; we cover it all in blood
Tell me why we wallow in the mud
Africa! Africa! Africa!...Mama Africa
We cry for peace...Africa!
Tell me why you fight...Tell me why we fight

Additional quotes by Wiyaala

I can do any kind or style of music I want...Reggae, Ragga, Ballad, African, Afro pop, even Pure pop. As an African, I still have my African thing and I don’t want to lose that because I just believe from day one that would make me stand out quick and I can never let that go.

It’s true that my music is not always genre specific, but I always see it as Afro-centric. I will be releasing an album of my own songs later this year (2016) and I will be singing in my local languages of Sissala and Wale as well as English. Some of the songs will sound traditional and local to where I grew up, whilst others will be more mainstream influenced.

That is why in my opinion I think you would have to understand [the language in] rap music to enjoy it. Because rap is very similar to talking. If you are a rapper and you went to certain places and they don’t understand what you are rapping about because you are talking to them in a much faster pace.
