Lady Jaydee

Tagged:

Lady Jaydee is the premier R&B artiste from East Africa and her real name is Judith Daines Wambura Mbibo. She is also known as Binti Machozi. She started singing in church at the age of 7 and was a member of the Afro Reign group in the mid 90's. She is affectionately called Ledi jeidii jukwaani.

She was a presenter at Clouds 88.4 FM radio station after completing school and soon began recording music, starting with Nakupenda (I love you) in 2000 and then following up with Mpenzi Wangu (My love). The success of these singles made her quit her radio stint to pursue a music career. She had also been singing in her church choir at the time. She has formed a band called Machozi to aid live performances.

Lady JayDee is inspired by musicians like Whitney Houston, Monica, Lauryn Hill, Lil Kim, and Dr Dre. She credits her mom Martha and manager Ruge Mutahaba for helping her blossom. She sings in Swahili, Zulu, Lingala, Kinyarwanda, French and English. One of her most popular songs, Distance (filmed by Tanzanian company African Pictures), used all those languages. She has also won countless awards throughout her career.

Some of her popular songs are Machozi, Mawazo, Siwema, Tatiza, Pumziko, Waweza kwenda na umuhimu wako, Siku Hazigandi, Siri yangu, and Usiusemee moyo.

Artists,

Please please, can someone put the song "Siwema" sung by Lady Jay Dee on You Tube and East African Tube???? Everybody is asking for it - why is this number not available? Lady Jay Dee gave a long desired response to a famous artisit Marijani's "Siwema". This back and forth exchange is an excellent thing in music, art, poetry etc.

It is a very common thing to have one artist's number re-formulated by other artists - there are many examples of these - Malaika is one prominent example. There are others.

So, anyone thinking that Siwema by Lady Jay Dee is a repetition- she/he is wrong! Lady Jay Dee did not repeat the song - she formulated it - ad made it a response to the earlier one sung by Marijani.

Cut a long story short and put Lady Jay Dee's "Siwema" on the tube THANKS A LOT!

Kwangu, Lady Jaydee sio sauti, nyimbo au sura. Huyu mtoto wa Kiafrika namufagilia kweli kweli.

Popote nisikiapo au nionapo nyimbo zake huwa nasisimkwa sana.

Abarikiwe sana kwa vile amekuwa kio chetu hapa afrika ya mashariki na ulimwengu mzima.

It seem for her, she doesn't mind how much she earns but what does the fans get. Cheeeeeers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Somebody to assist me to get in touch with her as I would like to support her to record one single song incorperating me.
