Kenyan singer Anastacia Mukabwa has for the first time talked about her relationship with the gospel queen from Tanzania Rose Muhando.
Mukabwa has revealed that to this day she respects Rose Muhando so much, adding that apart from the Tanzanian singer being her friend she also sees her as the bearer of her destiny who made a great contribution to her music career.
The Kenyan gospel singer told blogger Trudy Kitui that the ‘Kiatu Kivue’ collaboration of almost 15 years ago is what made her become famous.
“Rose Muhando si tu kwamba ni rafiki wangu, yeye ni kielelezo changu. Unaposikia Annastacia amesimama anamtumikia Mungu, yeye [Rose Muhando] ndiye Mungu alimpatia ufunuo na kuona kilicho ndani yangu, akanishika mkono na yeye ndiye alinipeleka studio na akalipa pesa zake na leo hii mnamsikia,” Anastacia Mukabwa said.
She further Rose Muhando is the woman behind her success in the music profession.
“Rose Muhando ndiye mwanamke nyuma ya mafanikio yangu katika fani ya muziki,” she said.
Mubabwa also stated that she has tried to hold the hands of other budding musicians in the industry just like Rose Muhando supported her when she was starting out.
“Kuna wale ambao pia wamenitafuta na wakaomba niimbe na wao. Sitaimba na kila mmoja katika dunia hii lakini nitaimba na wale ambao nitajisikia kuna muunganiko kati yetu, kwa sababu shetani pia naye ana njia yake ya kupackage watu na kuwaleta. Kwa hiyo pia nahitaji kuwa makini nijue kwamba huyu ni mtuminishi wa Mungu, ako na kitu na hana mtu wa kumshika mkono,” she concluded.
