Nes Mburu of Kenya Collaborates With Idris Elba, Nitefreak, And Armadillo On “Maithori,” A New Hot Release
From East to West, South to Central, Africa comes together at Maithori: a unique partnership between Idris Elba of West Africa, Frigid Armadillo of South Africa, Nes Mburu of Kenya, and Nitefreak of Zimbabwe. This song perfectly captures the essence of a united continent.
Maithori, which means “tears” in Kikuyu, the local language of Kenya, is sung by Nes Mburu, who describes it as “a tale of falling for the wrong lover, despite all the warnings.” Included are premium tears. It’s “a cautionary tale about the company you keep,” according to Frigid Armadillo.
At its most grandiose, Sound International is a label founded on the idea of never-ending house that is now uniting African voices from all over the world. Maithori is a moment of solidarity, not merely a song.
