Mohombi - Maraca
"Let me see your body move"
Mohombi is really setting the standard for RedOne produced music right now. In addition to a solid album, tracks keep springing online that suggest he’s just getting started. The catchiest of them all (and really, one of the catchiest songs of the year) is Maraca. It’s ridiculously repetitive, but that little “maraca-ca-ca” bit in the chorus just hits you like a ton of bricks even after the first listen. It’s less a song than a party squished into three minutes of sound. And although this kind of shallow dance music can get a bit tiresome, Maraca easily navigates potential pitfalls due to its immense sound. The drums alone are straight from a high-def movie soundtrack. It just attacks you. It’s been fun watching Mohombi’s steady climb in his native Sweden. I really do think he could break the U.S. if he tried.

I gotta admit... "Bumpy Ride" was one of my guilty pleasures during 2010. This song has much of the same party feel, but it lacks the fun and "it" quality "Bumpy Ride" had - as well as, as much of an awesome accent.
LOVE Bumpy Ride. Honestly, about half of his debut album was flawless.
He has a good voice and this track is so good.
