Swordman Kitala

Crucial new Ugandan MC Swordman Kitala teams up with UK-based producer Soft-Bodied Humans for Kaiju Kitala, a debut EP of addictive energy and killer flow that samples historic Japanese monster movies.

Soft-Bodied Humans is a producer based in London. He runs the Blue Tapes label and also creates longform acoustic drone under the name Cut A Lonely Figure. Swordman Kitala is a core feature of Kampala’s fertile underground hip hop scene with his raucous GabaGaza crew, and as a solo artist has released with PAN and Blip Discs among others. Kaiju Kitala is their first release together.
