Posted on by Catherine Nderitu

Z Anto seems to have remembered his place in 2020 and makes a comeback with Mako-Stamina. The Tanzanian legend is talking to Stamina in his new piece of work.

Mako-Stamina is Z Anto’s piece of work after a long break from the music scene. To start with, it seems 2020 we will be hearing more of him.

Actually, his last hit was in 2018 dubbed Mpaka Naogopa. His debut in 2020, Mako-Stamina has a great feel and the vibe he had back in the day is back.

In addition, Z Anto has it all when it comes to vocals and great writing skills. In most of is works, the star has had the best lyrics and easy lines to master.

Mako-Stamina is a message to singer Stamina after failed marriage

Mako-Stamina has been produced by Mazuu Records and directed by Kajal.  In addition to the big names is a big brand behind it. Z Anto has done it so well and the way the audio has been produced is just lit. One thing to note is that the audio and video are in sync.

Also, the video is not too busy and thus ut easily communicates the message. He is talking to Stamina for the hard time he has been through. Also, he consoles him for being cheated on.

According to Z Anto, marriage is like a cloth that needs a lot of patience. He further adds that it is not easy to maintain and he adds is sorry to his fellow bongo artiste, Stamina.

Also, the way he has delivered the message, it is clear that he has been hurt by what has been going on. Word has been going around on what broke the singer’s marriage and Z Anto’s singing just confirms how bad it is. It is clear that marriage is not a bed of roses.

Z Anto needs to hit back more as Mako- Stamina is already felt a few hours after it’s release. In conclusion, Mako- Stamina gets a rating of 6/10.

Rostam is at it again with a new banger ‘Kijiwe Nongwa’

Posted on by Catherine Nderitu

Rostam is back with a new banger dubbed Kijiwa Nongwa. The talented singer features Nay Wa Mitego. Rostam is a combination of Roma and Stamina.

To  start with, we are used to a Tanzania where all artists in Bongo sing about love. Here is a rapper who will gladly change your opinion about music. Rostam’s work is well crafted. Ever heard of super lyrics? Well everything lies in his work.

Rostam are always giving out their best to their fans. Although they are not very famous, their songs got strong message. Firstly, we are going to look at some of the lines and get the meaning.

Message and relevance of ‘Kijiwe Nongwa’

Rostam is at it again with a new banger 'Kijiwe Nongwa'

For starters, stanza one sets the pace for the song. Alikuja kama masii tukamchangia sadaka Tukamwona nabii aliyeshushwa siku ya pasaka Tukamtolea na zaka ili kanisa lijengwe Eeh-eh na bado wakamlaza nabii kifo cha mende. Actually, you are going to notice a Biblical aspect in this verse. Pasaka which simply means Passover is a Biblical word.

To add on, lets get what is in stanza two; Hivi unamkumbuka babu? Babu wa Loliondo Ah-ah yule mfugaji mwenye bleach la kikogo Watu wamekufa, watu wamefungwa, watu wamepoteza biashara Sasa umekaribia uchaguzi amerudi chama tawala. Also you get that in this stanza they are talking about witchcraft and how it has left people dead and closing of businesses.

Thus with the issues articulated here, it is right to say that the song is relevant to today’s generation. Further into the song, I feel like he is targeting a certain group of musicians and leaders in Tanzania.

Have a look at this stanza; So soka la Bongo linakwama wapi? TFF maanake nini Tanzania Football Failure, ndo nacho jua mimi Unamfukuzaje Amunike ili udhaifu wenu umvuge Wakati mlimpeleka mlevi ye akacheze namba ya Mkude?
