Happy Mothers Day to all the beautiful mothers everywhere. We love you. We are immensely grateful to you for bringing us into the world,
...
raising us and giving us the opportunity to experience this crazy journey called life.
Joseck and Jus of Jabali Afrika wrote the original song (link below text) in honor of their beloved mother, Aoko. @Jus - Jabali Afrika invited @Romantico & Samaki Mkuu to be part of conceptualizing a remix of the classic song.
Romantico brings us in with his signature rap straight from the heart as he he tells his madre, Liova how much he loves her before introducing Jabali Afrika to the Spanish-speaking world.
Next we move into the beloved chorus love, with Justo fronting the vocals backed by Romantico, Samaki Mkuu, Joseck on drums and Januaris on bass guitar. @DUFLA DILIGON TV also appears - can you spot him? If you can, tell us where in the comments 😉🦌
Samaki then takes the first verse that he wrote in honor of his mother Gerry, whom he wanted to recognize for all that she has done for him over the course of his existence.
Back to the classic chorus, we hope you're singing along!
For the second verse, Samaki tells us what it's been like to hear the name Jabali Afrika invoked in awe over the course of his life, ever since they won Carnivore Star Search in 1993, which propelled them onto their world tour. He expresses the honor he feels to be invited by Jus to be part of the remix of this classic hit.
If you've read up to here, hongera. Now it's time to crank up your speakers and sing along, "Nimetembea sjiamuona msichana kamo Aoko...". Tunataraji utakuwa na siku ya mama njema na pia utakuwa na fursa kumwambia mamako vile unamshukuru kukuzaa.
