It's Wakimbizi with the track "Makanga". i like this song coz it reminded me of Mabuda wengine mtaani kitambo who used to tell their daughters "Sitaki Kukuona ukirandaranda huko kwa stage" lol. Anyway, it's produced by Ulopa (Son of Susan Kibukosya)Samawati studio days. A VERY CATCHY CHORUS. Thanks to Joyce once again @ www.haiya.co.ke
