Kama mimi na wewe tunashabihiana kifikra, basi ulikuwa unatamani siku hii ifike.Siku ambayo angalau kwa muda mfupi,utapumzika kusikia kwamba kila production mpya ya Bongo Fleva, inakuwa imeelemea kwenye hadithi na visa kuhusu mapenzi.Sio kusema kwamba hadithi na visa vya mapenzi havina nafasi yake katika sanaa,La.Ni kuonyesha tu kwamba jamii ni pana na kuna mengi zaidi ambayo sanaa inaweza kuyagusia.

Aliyesikia kilio hicho ni Heavy-weight MC,Prof.Jay.Wimbo unaitwa Msilie akiwa amemshirikisha mkali mwingine wa hip hop nchini Tanzania,Chid Benz.Wimbo umetengenezwa na producer ambaye amekuja juu kwa sana.Ni Lamar kutoka Fish Crab Records.

Mambo kadhaa yamenifanya niusikilize wimbo huu siku nzima.Kikubwa ni ujumbe uliomo ndani yake.Kama ambavyo ungetarajia kutoka kwa Prof.kwa kina anaangalia yale yanayojiri katika jamii.Anatoa hoja,anafafanua,anaelekeza.Msikilize;

Leo ninayo furaha kumtambulisha Patrick Newman,mtanzania, msanii wa muziki wa Gospel ambaye makazi yake ni pale Seattle,Washington nchini Marekani.

Kimsingi Patrick sio mgeni katika anga za muziki.Kwa muda sasa amekuwa akifanya kazi zake nchini Marekani.Amewahi pia kufanya maonyesho kadhaa nchini Tanzania na hivi sasa anajiandaa kufyatua album yake.

Huu hapa ni wimbo wake unaoitwa Siku ya Kifo.Bila kujali dini yako wala kabila,ni wimbo wenye ujumbe mzuri sana.Je ukifa hivi leo marafiki zako watasemaje? Watasema mazuri yepi na mabaya yepi?Usikilize.Well done Patrick.

Hey what’s up everybody! I thought the Producers in Tanzania have improved a lot but I guess I was wrong! Two and Half years ago, I made a beat and named it Block Running, I sold it to one of the Label called Koch Entertainment of New York with an agreement that wherever this beat goes my name gotta  be there as a beat maker of this beat. Two days ago I was shocked when one of my friends from Tanzania sent me a song with the same beat I made 2 and half yrs ago! And I didn’t hear my name on the track. All I heard is Marco Chali.

So I called Koch Entertainment to ask what’s going on. Koch Entertainment management were so surprised to hear the news. So they told me to send the song to them and I did, they asked me if I ever sent the beat to MJ Records of Dar-es-salaam, Tanzania. I told them I never did but had put the beat on iTunes so people can buy and use it for promotions and not for any other type of business. But MJ Records used the beat without permission from Koch Entertainment and also they didn’t follow the agreement we signed that wherever this beat goes my name gotta be there as a beat maker!

I don’t have any rights of complaining this issue to MJ Records that why my name wasn’t on the song as a beat maker. All I will do is to take Koch Entertainment to court and they will deal with MJ Records. The only thing I am gonna deal with is if MJ Records bought this beat from iTunes. If they did why they used it for the business!!?

I put the song which Producer Marco Chali of MJ Records produced last year and my beat I made 2 and half years ago so you guys can compare and tell me if this beat is the same or not the same.Thanks.

Naomi,ambaye mwaka jana alitua nchini Tanzania na kushiriki katika onyesho la hisani kwa ajili ya akina mama, safari hii anatafutwa akikabiliwa na shutuma za kumchapa vibao dereva wake huko New York.

Mwanamitindo huyo ambaye inasemekana ni mpenda ugomvi sio mgeni na vyombo vya usalama.Siku za nyuma amekwisha kutwa na hatia ya kumpiga mfanyakazi wake wa ndani jijini New York, kumpa kibano msaidizi wake jijini Toronto na pia kumwangushia kisago polisi ndani ya ndege katika uwanja wa ndege wa Heathrow jijini London.Katika makosa yote hayo hapo juu,Naomi alikiri makosa yake na alihukumiwa kufanya kazi za kijamii(community services) kwa masaa zaidi ya 200.Kazi kweli kweli.Hivi kwanini kuna baadhi ya watu huwa wanadhani wanayo haki ya kuwaadhibisha watu wengine kiholela tu?Ni matunzo,jamii au?

NB:Hivi unajua Naomi Campbell alipokuwa mdogo alishiriki katika video ya Mfalme wa Reggae,Bob Marley katika wimbo One Love? Mtizame katika video hiyo hapo chini.Alikuwa na umri wa miaka 7 tu na hiyo ndio ilikuwa mara yake ya kwanza kuwa katika spotlight.

Kimsingi,kampeni hii ina umuhimu wa aina yake.Malaria ni tishio la uhai wa mamilioni ya watu ulimwenguni.Inaua kuliko ugonjwa mwingine wowote.Inaua zaidi ya Ukimwi!Kuna haja ya kuendelea kusambaza ujumbe.Kuna haja ya kuendelea kupeana maarifa kuhusu jinsi ya kupambana na ugonjwa wa malaria.Mapambano dhidi ya ugonjwa wa malaria ni zaidi ya chandarua.Ni suala la mazingira.Vidimbwi vya maji yaliyotuama.Misitu ya majani inayoachwa bila matunzo.Ni pamoja na kutumia kila aina ya kinga zilizopo.Hongera kwa wasanii waliotengeneza na kushiriki katika video hii;Zinduka. Kwa msaada zaidi wa jinsi ya kupambana na malaria,bonyeza hapa.

Ameongea na jamaa wa Global Publishers kama inavyoonekana katika video hiyo hapo chini. Sugu anatoa madai makali.Madai ya Rushwa au hongo!

Kama umechanganyikiwa na jinsi nilivyoandika hapo juu,pengine ni kwa sababu kitu chenyewe kinanichanganya hata mimi pia.Labda wasikilize wenyewe wahusika;

Sugu akiongea na waandishi wa habari.

Ruge Mutahaba akijibu mashambulizi ya Sugu

Za mwizi arobaini. Bila shaka ushausikia msemo huo.Sina uhakika sana na idadi ya siku (40) lakini nina uhakika kwamba msemo huo humaanisha kwamba uovu una kikomo.Ipo siku utakamatwa.Inaweza kuwa sio ndani ya siku arobaini(40) lakini ipo siku tu!

Lakini inakuwaje siku ukimfumania mtu ambaye haibi kunde na choroko zako shambani bali anaiba penzi au mpenzi wako? Utapigana au utamuacha aende zake.Yaani namaanisha utayamaliza kistaarabu tu au mtaani patakuwa hapatoshi kwa vurumai au songombingo utakalolianzisha?

Sijui utafanyaje…lakini Hussein Machozi(pichani) anasimulia jinsi siku za mwizi(wa penzi,mali au hali) zinavyofikia ukingoni.Baada ya siku arobaini mambo yanawekwa hadharani.Tyler Perry,yule muongoza sinema maarufu kutoka nchini Marekani,anao mchezo(play) unaoitwa What is Done In The Dark…Must Come Out to Light. Labda Hussein Machozi anamaanisha hivyo pia.

Wimbo unaitwa Za Mwizi 40,unapatikana katika album yake ya Kwa Ajili Yako. Hii ni single yake ya 3 kutoka katika album hiyo, single mbili zilizotangulia ni pamoja na Kwa Ajili Yako na Utaipenda.Usikilize hapo chini;

When the news surfaced that, Hasheem Thabeet, is headed to the Development League (D-League), the reaction among Tanzanians especially the users of social networks such as Facebook and blogs were overwhelming. I guess the big question in lots of folk’s minds was; what is a D-League? Does it suggest that he is no longer going to be playing in the usual NBA league? Well, it depends on a lot of things. You can read more about the D-League and its implications or benefits to Hasheem career by clicking here and also here.

The social networks such as Facebook and blogs were immediately stuffed with comments and opinions. Some were wishing him a “quick comeback “to the NBA, while some couldn’t hesitate to throw jabs on him in the sentiment of “we told you”.

I guess the news was “worth the talk”, because not only Hasheem is the first Tanzanian ever to play in the NBA, but also the highest draft pick ever to go to the D-League. Thabeet, who has played sparingly in his rookie season, averaging 2.5 points in 10.3 minutes over 50 games, has been optioned to the Dakota Wizards. He made his debut yesterday when Dakota Wizards played Erie Bayhawks. Dakota Wizards won 108-103.

Before his debut in the D-League, I had caught up with Hasheem with only one question in my mind; about his reaction following the demotion to the D-League. This is how it went;

BC: Hasheem, what is your reaction to this whole thing of moving to the D-League?

HASHEEM THABEET: My reaction about D-League…Uhmmm… well I’m excited to participate in the D-League. I’m looking forward to playing and maximizing this opportunity to be on court and use the skills that I have developed thus far rather than to be on the bench.

Right now the key for me is consistency court time as I am still learning the Pro Game. I know Coach Hollins has my best interest at heart so I’m happy with his decision which I believe is to make sure that I stay active.

Now I know this is the time for the haters and all the doubters to talk and say whatever they have because they have been waiting to bring me down for a minute. So it’s my downtime and I promise I’m not backing back. It’s a new saga that has started. Plus I’m still be getting the same cheque… it’s not like they are not gonna pay me the usual. So I’m still good and soon I’ll be back!!! And oh by the way, I’m only going there for 6 games. So I will be back sooner than they are thinking.

**BC would like to wish Hasheem all the best in the D-League and eventually his return to the NBA.
