“Me and Gem have a very good working relationship and I have been looking forward to have him produce a song for me. It’s a great song and I know it’s going to be a major anthem when it comes out,” he said.

Today Nyau music is known globally and I am very proud to take my country to the world,” he said.

  5. Keep rising, bro! You clear our country’s battered image out there. We are corrupt, irresponsible child bearers, lazy; the list is endless. But through you, the developed nations appreciate the rare artistic creativity Malawi has. National anthem architect, Msauka saw that Malawi is full of well-wishers and envious relations who recognize the whiteman more than their fellow. Plz, don’t succumb to their pulling-down. May God bless u more!!!

  6. Amangoimba zinyakanyaka zosakhala bwino. He is not a best musician. Famous just because his family is famous. But frankly speaking he is not a good musician.
