Artist
ABOUT
PRESS
He sings about life as it is. Not just about love stuff. He sings about normal things, so that the
people on the street understand and can relate to it. ----- LOUDER THAN SWAHILI
He's white, Danish and when on stage he's usually surrounded by black Tanzanian band members, but a few songs into any live performance by Mzungu Kichaa, you've already forgotten his skin colour. With his inspiring, socially and politically engaged lyrics, clean vocals and impressive guitar playing, it becomes just about the music. ----- THE GUARDIAN
Mzungu Kichaa (the ‘crazy white man’) has spent time living in Copenhagen, Dar es Salaam and London. He embodies a blend of these various places that has resulted in him becoming what he is today: one of the pioneers of East Africa's most popular fusion of traditional music and Hip Hop - Bongo Fleva. ----- THE CULTURE TRIP
“I am influenced by all the music I listen to. In school I studied the violin, the flute and the guitar and I have been singing as long as I can remember.” ----- FLING THE BEAT
