One of the most popular songs belonging to the Kadongo Kamu genre is this Walumbe Zaaya song, a song from legendary Kadongo Kamu artriste, Mr. Paul Kafeero.
Title, “Walumbe Zaaya” which is the name of a mythical being according to Buganda Kingdom’s folk stories, the song talks about how this Walumbe guy is bad.
Walumbe according to the myths is known to cause death to people on Earth like the whole earth generally and not only Buganda Kingdom.
Paul stresses how this Walumbe is not kind to anyone and can take any life any day he wishes and that people should always be prepared to receive him when he comes because we must all die anyway.
The song which was released in the year 1994 though its video came out over a decade later earned him the enduring nickname the Golden Boy of Africa from the 1994 Cairo music festival attended by thousands of African contestants, where he won a gold medal from the Institute d’Etudes Theatreales.
