New song of Alikiba – Ubuyu | Download
Tanzanian music royalty Alikiba has surprised fans with the unexpected release of his latest single titled Ubuyu, a high-energy Singeli song that dives deep into the world of umbea Swahili slang for gossip. The title itself, Ubuyu, is a cheeky urban term used to describe juicy rumors, and Alikiba has turned it into a fast-paced musical statement.
Released today, Ubuyu marks a bold return to the grassroots for Alikiba, as he explores the raw, fast-beating sounds of Singeli, a genre that originated in the streets of Dar es Salaam and has become a cultural wave across East Africa. Known for his smooth Bongo Flava hits and sultry R&B ballads, this fresh direction shows Alikiba’s versatility and his ability to adapt to the ever-changing soundscape of Tanzanian music.
