I think we need mature music in the diaspora not that shit by Skefa et all. Why we left Africa for Europe was for the quest for quality everything. We could not stand the bullshit in everything, politics, as well as that bollock you call music particularly in Malawi. With the exception of Lucious Banda, Matafale’s Band and Wambali’s nothing there sounds fit enough to be performed before an audience that deserves quality.
Muzitilemekeza ife aku diaspora, osati mwakhuta bonya wanu uko mwati mudzayimba kuno!
