Police na Guitar, from the Boss album, written by Julius McRymboh, produced by the talented So Fresh, and performed by Okello Max, combines elements of love, longing, and joy, interwoven with societal references that give it a distinct flavour.

It portrays a romantic relationship that is so intense it affects every aspect of the protagonist's life, from their emotions to their work and physical well-being.

The hook, "Police na guitar," adds a playful, perhaps metaphorical, layer to the otherwise love-centric theme, reflecting an artistic and storytelling tradition.

The lyrics (mostly in Luo language) revolve around the theme of love—its consuming power, its ability to heal- or so our protagonist says, and its place as a central force in the protagonist’s life. The song oscillates between longing, joy, and a light-hearted acknowledgment of love's overwhelming effects. It beautifully captures the highs and lows of being deeply in love.

Lines like (Kaonge buti, kendo koro atwo) "I feel sick when I am not close to you" and (Seche duto kimor stress rumo tee) "Every time you are happy, I am stress free" showcase the emotional rollercoaster of a romantic connection. The lyrics are also relatable to anyone who has experienced the joy and challenges of love, making it universally appealing. It is worth noting that the hook is some sort of rendition of Jose Feliciano’s Feliz Navidad.

The song's instrumentation is a standout feature, as it combines acoustic elements, electric guitars, and additional vocals with modern production techniques. The acoustic guitar serves as the song’s anchor, while the bassline and light percussion create a rich backdrop.

Its production is polished, with each element, from the vocals to the guitars, distinctly audible yet harmoniously blended. It goes without saying that the playful guitar licks mimic the song’s narrative, almost telling the story alongside the lyrics.

In conclusion, Police na Guitar is a love song that blends emotional depth with playful energy, creating that enjoyable feel that comes with modern Luo songs. The lyrics are simple yet profound, effectively conveying the protagonist's devotion and joy. The hook is catchy and culturally resonant, serving as a centrepiece for singalongs. While the song could benefit from a more elaborate exploration of the metaphorical "Police na guitar," its strength lies in its vocals and charm.
