UK based Cameroonian artist and renowned fashionista Sama Ndango aka Mr fix it drops a hot new single titled "donne moi Le way" that is bound to get you up and dancing by the fourth second.

produced by CFX, the song is a minimalistic but sophisticated afro-beat driven arrangement, driven by a traditional xylophone, with a pounding live-bassline and numerous references to various tending songs, personalities and styles amongst Cameroonians home and abroad.

Mr fixit jumps on this CFX produced track with an energetic delivery mixing rap and singing in english, french and pidjin,  repetitively chanting "donne moi le way" with intelligent lyrics that are, to say the least "open to interpretation". Le Way in Cameroonian street slang refers basically to ANYTHING, or "that thing".
Is this Cameroon's next viral anthem???

Listen to "donne moi le way" on this link  as well  and decide what "thing" Mr.Fixit aka Sama Ndango wants from you.
