Lit....but Chilled.

Mwanake by Kiu, is our sophomere release, although it is our first official release. The song is about falling in love with someone who gets you, and loves you unconditionally. A word of Gikuyu origin, it simply means young man, the object of our affection in this song, and the term used endearingly for him. 

Mwanake

Peace Not Fight - Elly Sings ft Skillz Odongo
