Remember Kanda Bongo Man? Well, He’s back!!!

If you were born form the early 90s like most of the generation z guys you probably have no idea about who Kanda Bongo Man is. Well, this is the guy that was on the lips of many music lovers in Kenya some 20 or so years ago. So popular he was that the then President, Daniel Moi wondered loudly “Who is this man driving Kenyans crazy?”

Anyhow, that was then, fast forward to 2012…

The King of Kwasa Kwasa is back in the country and is promising lingala fans a thrilling performance having already put up a string of events in Nairobi and Mombasa. His first stop will be at Deep West Resort Club in Nairobi West on Friday where he is expected to perform alongside Banoko International Band who is his Kenyan-based counterparts.

The Inde Monie, Muchana, Sai and Liza hits-maker will then travel down to the Coast to perform at the Palm City in Mombasa on Saturday. Kanda who is now based in the UK is also expected to visit charity organizations.

Speaking during an interview, Kanda expressed enthusiasm ahead of his performance slated for the weekend. “I feel honoured to visit Kenya where I had one of the biggest fan bases,” Kanda said.

Just wondering if the kwasa kwasa dance maestro still has the magic wand to make his music resonate among his fans…
