Maua Sama drops classic love ballad ‘Nioneshe’ (Video)

I’m a big fan of Tanzanian songstress Maua Sama so when I heard that she had released a new song, I was naturally excited and I hope that you will be too after listening to it.

So, the jam is titled Nioneshe, which is Swahili for show me and it’s such a beautiful composition. If you’re into love ballads, I have a feeling that you will be listening to it on replay for a very long time.

From my understanding, Maua Sama is not too sure whether a certain chap loves her. As such, she wants he wants him to show her that he really loves her through his actions.

I only started jamming to Bongo recently so when I tell you that this track is dope, you better believe me. You really should ladies and gentlemen.

For starters, Maua Sama has a lovely voice, the kind that most men, including myself, wouldn’t mind listening to all day. She really sounds like an angel, wait how do they even sound?

She has a way of expressing herself in her songs that makes you feel like she is talking to you and then she is sincere in the way she sings.

To add to that there is a guy with a deep base on the background vocals and I feel their voices blend so well. Although my Swahili is not all that, I feel Nioneshe is lyrically on point.

The beat and instrumentation are not that bad either. If you’ve heard of the name Kimambo then I’m sure you know that he is probably the best beat maker in Tanzania.

The video is also really dope. One of the things I love most about it is it’s crisp quality. Of course, the location, props and scene transitioning were also impeccable. Kudos to Hanscana.

Watch Nioneshe below and tell us what you think.
