The Rhumba in Kenya, particularly the Luo Rhumba popularly dubbed as ‘muziki bila kasho’ has gone to another level with Engineer Wuod Fibi getting in the mix and taking it to another level.
Though the genre has notable artistes like Emma Jalamo and John Junior, Wuod Fibi has tossed himself wanting a piece of the pie for himself and he is doing very good to have it with his single ‘Cham Gi Wang’i'(Kula Kwa Macho)that is practically in every Luo’s mouth from Nairobi to Kisumu to Migori to Siaya to Bondo to the whole country.
“There is this aimless falling in love on social media with people you don’t even know, it has costed very many people their lives, their wealth or even their dignity, this song is there to remind you to be careful about the so called team mafisi.” – Wuod Fibi
