Madini Classic finally explains the reason behind his hit song ‘Kalongolongo’

‘Kalongolongo’ is a term that once got Robert Alai arrested. The controversial blogger was thrown behind bars for referring Uhuru’s Kenyatta’s government as a ‘Kalongolongo’ government.

For Madini Classic ‘Kalongolongo’ is all about love. The Coast based singer explained his hit song during an interview with Jeff Koinange and Jalango on Hot 96.

Comparison

Madini explains that he was just comparing and contrasting past and present love in his song ‘Kalongolongo’. The term ‘Kalongolongo’ itself refers to a childhood game.

“Kalongolongo nlikua nakubusha watu vitu za nyuma, najaribu kucompare love ya kitambo na love ya sasa hivi. Tukiangalia kitambo watu wanafall in love wakiwa wadogo unapata kwamba umecheza na mtoto ambaye ni mschana mukakosana katikati ya mchezo and the next minute bado munarudi munacheza pamoja munacheka. So nlikua najaribu kusema love ya kitambo tukiwa utotoni ilikua nzuri zaidi ya sasa hivi.

“Najaribu kuangalia sasa hivi ukiwa na mpenzi wako alafu mukakosana inakua chuki alafu kuna vijembe unarushiwa maneno, matusi vitu kama hivyo. So mimi nasema laiti ningerudi kucheza kalongolongo na ule mwenye tulikua tunacheza naye ningehisi furaha san,” said Madini Classic.
