We're so happy to see people enjoying Mukabi's music so much! If you would like to get in touch with him or book him to play music please get in touch at admin@singingwells.org and we'll give you his information.
Wau if i couldn't have come through this on UA-cam, i couldn't have known the instruments they are using,, i was listening to this on my dads wooden radio those days we had No tv, and that radio no one else could attempt to switch it on without the dads permission 😂😂
UA-cam suggested this to me today. What a beautiful oldie! No matter how long it gathers dust on the shelves, it is still a melodious gem to listen to even today.
Música é a coordenação de sons com melodia, harmonia e rítimo, Não importa quem vai fazer o barulho. Pode ser até uma garrafa de fanta como reco-reco, uma colher de metal em repique e o maravilhoso som das cordas do mias popular instrumento do mundo que em contraponto de um dedilhado único, abrilhanta a simplicidade da harmonia, regido pela marcação do som da sola do sapato do pé esquerdo. kkkkkkk, lindo de mais. DEUS ESCOLHE QUEM ELE QUER, para distribuir os seus dons. Parabéns vocês são abençoados pelo criador do mundo.
...can’t stop listening to this songs by our own Kenyan greats...there are so beautiful,inspiring and original...Would love to meet & play with legendary songwriters...
The Late George Mukabi' s Singuo replayed by his younger brother Johnstone . George Mukabi (1930-1963) was a folk musician from western Kenya, and was one of the first recording musicians in Kenya. In his short musical career he recorded less than 30 songs. He made platinum hits and was one of very few Kenyan musicians to own a car. His playing was massively popular and influential, affecting urban players like John Mwale, also a Luhyia and created what became sukuti music, popular among western Kenya's traditional people. He was killed in 1963 by his in-laws when an argument with his wife's family got out of hand
What these old men are showing us is that you only need simple tools to be creative. And that's how creative our Kenyan musicians were in the 1960s to 1970s. But just listen to the crap we get in our ears in the 21st. century!
This is very very wonderful...i must say. When it's said that Music has no age..i've seen an example from these elderly persons. I wish them a very long life in God's Name
A very educative song, they sing in swahili, ( East African) that a child is not like a piece of clothe, or a dress, you cannot lend or be lend, you need your own
First heard this in early 70s. They Sounds even better now in their advanced age. Chorus basically says: “It’s not clothing, to borrow from someone A child is not clothing, to borrow from someone If you don’t have yours, you will cry a lot If you don’t have yours, you will cry a lot” Deep meaning enhanced by his touching voice, and the instruments ..wow!! This song was spot on in epitomizing the value of children in African culture.

Si "utaomba mtu" lakini ni " hutaomba mtu". Maana yake ni ya kwamba nguo unaweza omba mtu, akupatie, uvae, uende nao safari, na kadhalika. Lakini mtoto ukikosa, umekosa. Huombi mtu vile unaweza omba nguo. Hiyo ndiyo maana ya hii wimbo.
Chorus ‘Is not clothing to borrow from someone A Child is not clothing to borrow from someone If you don’t have yours you will cry a lot If you don’t have yours you will cry a lot’
You people see a little red soil, and assume people are squalid and miserable? They are all clean, dressed smart and in a natural landscape. Why make assumptions?

A very educative song, they sing in swahili, ( East African) that a child is not like a piece of clothe, or a dress, you cannot lend or be lend, you need your own
This was a real deal during our childhood. Pure and original instrumentals , "fanta bottles"
After 100 years, UA-cam is going to be recommending this song.
One love 😍. All the way from Pacific 🌏
Njameni watu wasaport hawa njamaa wimbo mbado iko sweet.
Mtoto si nguo jamani dahhh napendezwa zaidi
Remembering those days,hiyo chupa ya fanta imenkumbsha mbali mno
Kweli kabisa
Love the melodies of those days,,,, they were so real and natural and full of meaning..... Bless these guys
First heard this in early 70s. They Sounds even better now in their advanced age.
Chorus basically says:
“It’s not clothing, to borrow from someone
A child is not clothing, to borrow from someone
If you don’t have yours, you will cry a lot
If you don’t have yours, you will cry a lot”
Deep meaning enhanced by his touching voice,
and the instruments ..wow!!
This song was spot on in epitomizing the value of children in African culture.
Well translated.
Wish east Africa could have a wall of Fame to preserve this legendary gems

These guys were real musician, it takes me back in time during music festival 1998 when weithaga boys played this song like there is no tomorrow.
Nukula raha namwangu

Muito lindo, ouvir as musicais originais desse país, o dueto é perfeito!
Tradus pra mim em portugues meu chara??
Mtoto si nguo utaomba nashukuru mungu kwa kunipa watoto
Siyo "utaomba mtu" wala ni "hutaomba mtu". One is the opposite of the other.
We celebrate these household names who reigned the airwaves for years entertaining Kenyans and the world. Mtoto si Nguo!
Happiness is to do and get what you want. These guys seem to have found it. It is never money or richness you can be happy absolutely with nothing.
Passion.

@@boblion262 aint you stupid?
Waoooh mtoto sio nguo.... my favourite song
One of my old time favourites. I think I have bought all of George Mukabi's songs. Hopefully his family receives the royalties
Kweli kabisa,Mtoto siyo si nguo utaomba Mtu,ukikosa wako utalia sana.
Si "utaomba mtu" lakini ni " hutaomba mtu". Maana yake ni ya kwamba nguo unaweza omba mtu, akupatie, uvae, uende nao safari, na kadhalika. Lakini mtoto ukikosa, umekosa. Huombi mtu vile unaweza omba nguo. Hiyo ndiyo maana ya hii wimbo.
True legends. Wengine ni bandia. These pioneers deserve a good treat.
Soy de Haití me encanta el ritmo 👊👊
