.after you've tasted Malawian Kilombero rice, Tastic, Speko, and whatever passes for jasmine rice in SA suddenly make you realise you've been eating terrible rice all along. 😭
Happy weekend to all my followers and digital friends, add this song to your playlist. It is proof that you do not need to understand a language to enjoy music, music is a language of the soul on its own.
It is one of the greatest African songs ever made, and it is from Malawi. The song is called “Linny Hoo” and was done by Giddes Chalamanda featuring Namadingo.
Giddes Chalamanda is a legendary Malawian musician known for his acoustic folk style and for performing with a banjo. The collaboration with Namadingo revived the song and made it popular across Africa. He was 90 years old in 2020 when this video was made, an amazing legend.
Enjoy and have fun over the weekend🎼
