Kidumu - the Burundian music superstar!

Nameless' Sinzia single was probably the biggest African song in 2006. After Sinzia, African music fans wanted more. We waited for the CD and other singles. Months later, we were rewarded with Karibia, another hot track that featured Kidumu. Who was Kidumu? Who is Kidumu? Why didn't Nameless release another video so we could see who Kidumu was? Now we know, Kidumu is a famous Burundian singer who apparently lives in Kenya. Nameless and Kidumu combined on Karibia and that song is hot. That's not all, Kidumu has some really great music of his own.

Here are a few videos using some of his songs and the video uploader also adds the lyrics to some of the songs.

Chorus
Jua kwamba wewe ndio wangu
Baridi ya roho 'seisha na hamu
Sura yako dawa kwangu
Raha za pungu' kando zangu [Not really sure what this means]
Mahaba yako ndio tiba yangu
Nyota yako yang'ara yangu

Hebu tathmini kisha nipe jibu
'vi kwanini hutaki kunijibu
Mitihani yote nimeshinda
Nadhani ni wakati
Penzi letu sisi liwe wazi
Roho yangu inauma (a lady helps co-sing this line)
Maumivu sasa basi
Sasa basiiiii

Ni kwa thabiti nielewe
Pesa sio mapenzi...
Pesa sio mapenzi...
Kwa utenzi huu
Nielewe baby
Nakuhitaji mpenzi
Wewe nd'o faraja yangu
Wewe nd'o f

Eeh lady S, colabo na pili pili.hii ngoma ni ya wahuni,watu wa kuhanyahanya.wakiniona wanainuka.

Ukimwona mwambie namtaaka,
Ukimwona mwambie na msaaka,
Ukimwona mwambie namhata
Ndio ajue na mpenda
Ukimwona aah *3

Mtoto nakuomba nisamehe,
Kwa kutangatanga kama mwewe,
Usiniache mama
Nitaumia mtoto na njeve,

Unajifanya mpoa na hata huna mwere moja
Una hanyahanya huku na kule ati mimi nakungoja,
Unaniseduce ati tutastay pamoja,
Naulikuwa unahanya ule beste wangu wa Umoja,
Sihatajuzi maboyz walikucheki na manzi fulani mtaani,
Nakila wakati unanipa date unaosha masahani,

Je rappe avec la rage des ancétres sur le son des anciens car
l afrique est en chien et babylon la traite comme une chienne
il faut qu'on brise les chaines passe mwa l'echelle pour
surmonter la faim, la crise et ,l'echec
afrik mon afrik il est temps de sortir de l'ombre 600 ans d 'esclave
c'est un chiffre trop gros
plus en plus de fils d'immigrés voyage sur air sarko
en faites les énemis de l'afrik c les afrikain eux-méme
pourquoi nous ne develloppons pas notre afrik nous méme
pourquoi nous ne combattons cette echec nous
pourquoi nous ne sommes pas afrikain pour nous méme

MBARIKA Lyrics

Chorus
Kwenda mbio sio kufika (sio kufika) sio kufika
Kuishi kwingi ni kuona (ni kuona) ni kuona
Bada ya dhiki ni faraja (ni faraja) ni faraja
Ni kweli, ni kweli, ni kweli, ukweli

Verse 1
I take for the team, this one is for the dream
The show me love, dont buy me things
In god we trust not kings and queen
Remember your roots, forget the bling bling

(Ai manze Wawesh wasema nini)
Heri kujikwaa kidole kuliko ulimi
Kukopa harusi, kulipa ni matanga
Lipitalo kweli hu pishwa no wonder

He who requires what is under the bed must bend for it
Some are lazy so they

East African collaborations - maybe the federation is coming to us soon

East African FederationIf you haven't heard that Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania are planning to become one political entity soon, make sure to google it or ask someone from those countries. With the unrest in Kenya, right now, it may take a while but the plan is in the works. Maybe a new government, Raila Odinga's, would come into power and put that proposition that Mwai Kibaki championed to rest, but in the meantime, we can have some unity in music. Various East African musicians have been pushing the unity for awhile and it is working.
