Hunterz Ishers & Vee - Girlfried



Hunterz, who once made a track with reggae band UB40, has released a track in collaboration with his brothers Ishers and Vee. Girlfriend is the first song taken from Ishers's first album.

The song is laid back and catchy. I like it when a track has lyrics that are easy to sing along to and remember. But it seems like the guys ran out of ideas when writing lyrics for Girlfriend. The phrase "you can be my girlfriend" is sung or said a total of 28 times. For a song that is barely three and a half minutes long that is far too many time to repeat the same phrase over and over again.

The video is simple. It's set in a dark empty warehouse with lots of dancers. There is a nice end shot of the three brothers, who look very alike, standing in the same pose wearing matching sunglasses.

Hunterz - Aja Mahiya


Hunterz, who once made a track with reggae band UB40,  has released his new single and a video to go with it. Aja Mahiya is the first new music from the musician since The Masterpiece which was released back in 2008.

The video that accompanies the song is simple and has no storyline. It consists of arty shots in scenic sunny locations. A model is posing in most of the shots and I thought she was superfluous in many of them. The camera work in the video is great and shows off the expansive scenery perfectly.

Aja Mahiya is instantly recognisable as a Hunterz song thanks to the stunning vocals. Rishi Rish produced the song and has done a good job. There is a gentle warm quality to the track with echos of summer. Aja Mahiya is laid back but still has a beat and bass line to groove to. The chorus is catchy and the lyrics are nice.

Overall this is a great come back song from Hunterz. A simple but exotic video with a catchy single to match.
