The phrase "fai fai pea" is a Samoan chant typically used by plantation workers whilst gathering the harvest in the plantations. It is also used by individuals carrying long and laborious tasks in the villages..Fai fai pea. English translation. " Keep on with it" or "keep the hard work up"
When he raps the lyrics: "Samoans been exploited..." He's talking about how the Germans tried to make the native Samoans work in the fields, but the Samoans refused so the palagi brought in the Chinese. Now, nearly a third have Chinese anestry.
This is old-school af, i love the positive nz hip hop artists from back then che fu, deceptakonz, scribe, all clean wasnt about flexing the cash and the women like alot of American rap these days. I havnt heard a new good rapper for ages.
I saw this cat in Htown in 1999 or 2000, I spent most of the night out on the balcony smoking blunts with his road crew, this dude was a badass with a system and a mic.... He has heaps of coconuts to show everyone!
+Dan NZ Hey Dan, I'm not Samoan, and I'm not from South Auckland either. I'm a palagi from Northland, New Zealand. Just because I say God bless all Kiwi Samoans doesn't mean I'm having a go at the rest of us! God bless all the rest of us too! I'm just happy that we have wonderful people from Samoa here in New Zealand adding their culture to the rest of ours.
this classic needs to be on the new Fast and Furious movie Shaw and Hobbs... but congrats K.K and the Hamo nation for making the S &H movie with song Mista... Solid work pays off...

@TheAtraxRobustus: its unlikely, the main areas hit by the tsunami were on the southern sides of Upolu and Savai'i, and this video seems to be shot mainly in and around the capital of Apia, which is on the northern side of Upolu

This song will always go hard in NZ
Bridge:
Make way selectah rum dem mad feel
While me rugged dance hall echoes
(Fa'apa boom, boom, Fa'apa boom, boom)
Midnight reflect sunrays da di di da da oooohhhh
Chorus:
Screams from da old plantation (non-stop)
(Fai fai pea, fai fai pea)
Verse 1:
You are immersed in a vision cultivated by this Samoan
Strong is my brethren Samoa mo Samoa
Island brothers extend a vibe to the X'..but the only X Samoans know is XXL
OS equals over-sized, overstayers, over stretched last names
Pack it up can you pronounce it
Delete the error that began with ages
Visual effects guaranteed by the flick of no brown man but not..
Brown copper Polynesians has been exploited (sina oe)
Come into my life I got coconuts to show you
Chorus:
Verse 2:
It's just my savage instincts coming back from the brink
Revitalise the knowledge that we lost (you better think)
Culture ebbing's being lost in the ignorance from the ma to the pa to the child
Wonder why your child is running round real wild
Pass on the knowledge so the tongue leaves it's cradle
Or take them back home to the motherland and teach
The ways of our elders lifestyles and the speech
Chorus
Verse 3:
Enter the mind of a Hamo, I'm just a psycho
Ready to blow up the mic from into to outro
Ballheads try to understand it's doubtful
You try to make me out your efforts are pitiful (pitiful)
I'm from Savaii, village is Fagamalo
When it comes to battling I'm just an animal
(Tiger) fix amnesia
Second migration, we all paying homeage to the old plantation
We just paying homeage to the old plantation
Bridge
Chorus
Outro
