AUDIO: Kontawa – Sobibo | Download Mp3

Tanzanian music star Kontawa is back again with another street anthem! His latest release, “Sobibo,” is a fast-paced singeli track that paints a vivid picture of life in the Uswahili neighborhoods — raw, real, and unapologetically street.

In true Kontawa fashion, “Sobibo” blends rapid-fire lyrics with energetic singeli beats that are already getting massive attention on the streets and online platforms. The song captures the gritty realities of urban life, with witty wordplay and humorous lines that strike both truth and irony.

One of the most talked-about lyrics in the song goes:

Oya kuna mtaa buku jero unapata zigo, ukiwa na laki na nusu tu unauziwa figo, watu wana roho za korosho na mtaa haupo Mabibo, oya huo mtaa unaitwa Sobibo.”

These lines give a sarcastic take on the harsh economic realities in some neighborhoods, where survival is tough and values are sometimes tossed aside. The artist goes on to add:

“Uswahilini typically, chips unapewa bure unauziwa kachumbari.”

This clever lyric mocks how things can be twisted in the hood — a reflection of life where what’s expected is turned upside down.
