He retained elements of the original version, talking about the lyrics, chorus, verses and rhythm. Blackface is best known as the co-writer of “African Queen” with 2baba, a song made famous by the latter. This was after it appeared on 2baba‘s debut solo album ‘Face 2 Face‘ in 2004 and went on to become a monster hit record.
Notable Lyrics
Can never take ur space
That’s a fact I cannot erase
And u, u are the one that makes me smile
Make me float like a boat upon the Nile
And you are my African Queen
The girl of my dreams
You take me where I’ve never been
You make my heart go ding-a-ling-a-ling, oh ahh
You are my African Queen
The girl of my dreams
And you remind me of a thing
And that is the African beauty
