And people say Norway doesn’t produce Hip Hop. Think again. The Hip Hop group known as Madcon, hailing from Oslo, Norway bring the soulful dance beats and lyrics. The two members, Tshawe Baqwa and Yosef Wolde-Mariam, have parents from South Africa as well as Ethiopia and Eritrea respectively.

Tshawe is also known in Norway for his participation in their country’s version of Dancing with the Stars. Dance on.

They have a raw and soulful sound that doesn’t seem overproduced. Dare I say that they remind of me a bit of a middle of the career Outkast? Regardless, I’m looking forward to the many mashups of this song, sure to emerge in the next few months.
