1998! i was 16. Stealing my grandmas gospel tapes za akina kasanga and dubbing kalamashaka on it. Second verse always got me "Mabeshte kule ghetto waliniita Al-Pacino njaro zangu na squad ya watu kumi na mbili kama ya Jesus nilitamani njaro za credit cards na visa constantly kwenye kona nakumbuka nikiona yule mzee akishikwa koo balaa! nashindwa nikimbilie nani jambazi?hapana! polisi?hapana! wakanipiga pingu bila hata sababu! Maisha ni magumu nilikataa elimu mama yangu alidhani mimi ni wazimu. Siku loose hope nikaanza ku drop lyrics moja kwa moja pata heshima kama pope smile siku zote piga nduru wengi toka ghetto wamenawiri!

Here in Bongo, it was one of the hit song during those good early days of Bongo Fleva, KalaMashaka from good neighbors Kenyans. Tafsiri hii. I was in O-level wakati huo.

I remember when aboubakar Sadiq played this hitted track(radio one)

When Rap Was Deep In Kenya.....Loved this

when kenyan hiphop was real...... k shakas.... kantai..zaka

I was in class 3 in 1999 exactly 1 yr after they had released this song and I remember I dubbed it on my dad's cassette by an Arusha based gospel group. The LP was labelled Lulu but i took it and dubbed this song on it and I rapped it word by word and I can say I became a rapper then. This week [11/5/2015] I have been chasing Johnny Vigeti to get his latest Album named Mr Vigeti.

Not in Kenya but much of Africa. I remember them doing a concert in Nigeria sponsored by Benson and Hedges. Nigerians could not believe a group in Africa can do this. This are the Godfathers.
