Emerging Fervour

With Valentines Day fast approaching, a friend of mine, Chima Anya decided to create this video from his ‘New Day’ album. The song is called ‘Cupid’s Net’.

Chima is actually a doctor (he graduated and everything and works in a hospital somewhere in London) but his passion is music and at this rate he may need to give up his day job. At the risk of sounding like I’m kissing his ass…he really does make great music and I’m really proud like a big sister. I’ve known Chima for almost 10 years now, ever since he was a tiddly 16 year old. It was our love for underground hip hop that got us chatting and he’s been one of my biggest influences in music to this day.

Chima’s always been picky with what hits his ears. I spent years having my radio hijacked on my car every time he got in, armed with his cd case. I used to get annoyed but gave in eventually when I realised my Foxy Brown was in no way competition to his 57th Dynasty. So it’s come as no surprise that he created ‘I Love Rap’ back in October last year, a video where he spreads the love of Rap in London, Spain and China (town) – this is also taken from his upcoming album – New Day

Up until a year or so ago, Chima performed as GTA with Ineffable, Neill Timms and although Chima is focusing more on solo stuff, there could be a double performance sometime in the future we hope!

My favourite era of Chima’s has to be ‘Old school Chima’ – check out one of his earliest video’s for ‘I Wanna be Myself’…haha, still makes me laugh every time I see it!

Chima’s on Facebook and Twitter…he’s twitter master – very amusing late night psycho-babble from the self proclaimed ‘your mother’s favourite rapper’. Latest includes ‘I’m just too FUCKING real. WHAT THE FUCK AM I GONNA DO? I CANT GO ON LIKE THIS, either i’m gonna get killed or i’ma start killing cats‘ 10th Feb – 3am. You can check out his YouTube page too if that’s not enough. You can also check him out on iTunes – just search Chima Anya for his New Day album.
