Freestyler
A follow-up on Freestailo, the YouTube star from Kazakhstan. Many people in Kazakhstan have been trying to figure out where he got the idea from. Also, while there are some Kazakh words in there (“Analain” which means “dearest” and “Kyzdari” which means, “girls” or “women”) there is also a lot of nonsense, like “Waka Maka”.
Thanks to a friend for pointing out this song, Freestyler by the Bomfunk MCs:
Notice that the first lyrics are “Freestyler/Rock rock rock rock the microphone”. Which sounds, to a non-native speaker, like: “Freestylo/waka maka”!
