Tanzanian singer and songwriter Mohrich is one of the artists keeping the lyrical tradition of Bongo Flava alive. Another thing that endears me to his music is his tendency to fuse various styles, ensuring every song is widely appealing.
“Kipepeo” is his most recent offering. It’s a melodious and affectionate song that sees Mohrich reiterate his commitment to someone special to him. The sentimentality oozing out of this track is so delightful, with the singer likening that ‘special somebody’ to a butterfly (‘kipepeo’ in Swahili).
I can’t stop singing along to this song. As you listen to “Kipepeo”, be sure to check out Mohrich on Instagram for more music from him.
