How Tanzania’s Mamy Baby is empowering girls and women through media and advocacy

Charles Maganga — Mon, 18 Nov 2024 07:57:57 +0000

Mamy Baby is one of Tanzania's influential female broadcasters, with over 10 years of experience in radio, using her platform to advocate for girls' issues. In an exclusive interview, she shared insights on her professional journey, the challenges she faced, and her commitment to empowering women and girls through her work and her organization, Dada Hood.

The Beginning of Her Media Journey

Mamy Baby began her broadcasting career at Mambo Jambo FM in Arusha in 2009, before moving on to well-known stations like East Africa Radio and Clouds FM. Asked about her early experiences and challenges, she shared:

"Starting work right after college was such a joy for me. I had the passion to do a job I loved and enjoyed, and the experience was immense in shaping me, building my courage. My confidence grew daily, especially working in Arusha—‘Hip Hop City.’ I hosted an entertainment show, so you couldn’t survive if you were too soft," (she laughs).

A major challenge back then was financial. She explained:

"The challenge was financial. You know, regional radio stations often don’t bring in enough advertising revenue, and there are still station running costs. Sometimes, you didn't even know how you’d get to work, but the show had to go on air.”

Joining Clouds FM and Success on XXL

In 2016, Mamy Baby joined Clouds FM, taking a position on the popular entertainment show, XXL. She described how important this opportunity was for her and credited mentors like B Dozen and Adam Mchomvu with her career success:

"Joining Clouds was a crucial and significant step in my career. One of my biggest dreams was to work at Clouds on their leading entertainment show, XXL. What attracted me was becoming part of the top team on Tanzania's number 1 entertainment show and seeing my talent reach a larger audience. Being alongside icons like Dozen and Adam Mchomvu, their support and welcome when I joined the team were powerful.”

Her Role in Promoting Tanzanian Music

Mamy Baby has made significant contributions to Tanzanian music through entertainment shows like XXL and the Clouds FM Top 20. She explained how Tanzanian music has evolved since she began featuring it on her platform and the role radio plays in its growth:

“Through shows like XXL and Clouds FM Top 20, Tanzanian music has evolved significantly, reaching music trends across Africa and worldwide. However, we still don’t have a distinct identity for Tanzanian music, and while there are many great songs, not all are long-lasting classics. Nowadays, music’s reach isn’t dependent on radio alone as it used to be. Social media has made it easier to push songs to go viral.”

Starting the Dada Hood Initiative

Beyond broadcasting, Mamy Baby founded the Dada Hood Initiative, an organization that focuses on inspiring and guiding young girls. She outlined the primary goal of this initiative, saying:

“Dada Hood is an organization made up of artists and celebrities whose main goal is to use their talents and social status to help create a community where girls and women understand and exercise their rights and responsibilities, as well as their potential. Our contribution through Dada Hood is to ensure that a new generation of women grows with personal development, community impact, and national progress in mind.”

Balancing Marriage and Career

In 2022, Mamy Baby married Dr. Hassan Abbas, a prominent government leader. Despite this, she has managed to balance her married life with her broadcasting career. She said:

"It has never been an issue. Dr. Hassan Abbas is also a media and entertainment person, so it’s just about balancing time, and I’ve cut back on some responsibilities but not stopped working.”

Future Aspirations

Mamy Baby dreams of continuing to be a voice for girls and women in Tanzania. She shared her vision for the future, saying:

“My goals in the future are to continue being the ‘Voice’ for girls and women, helping them become better starting from family, community, and national levels.”

The Orange Concert: An Annual Event Empowering Women

To achieve her mission of supporting women and girls, Mamy Baby launched The Orange Concert, an annual event held in celebration of International Women’s Day on March 8. This concert aims to empower girls and women to showcase their talents and fight gender-based violence. She said:

“The Orange Concert is an annual charitable music event held on International Women’s Day, March 8. The event aims to empower girls and women in talent and advocacy against gender-based violence in our community. The purpose of the event is to celebrate the contribution of girls in social development and end gender violence through the arts.”

Mamy Baby continues to exemplify a woman of vision and strength, inspiring countless girls and women in Tanzania. Through her media influence and social initiatives, she leaves a lasting impact, encouraging women to recognize their worth, take bold steps, and advance in various spheres of life.

10 Bongo Flava classic songs turning 10 in 2024

Charles Maganga — Sat, 12 Oct 2024 08:52:38 +0000

Back in 2014 Tanzania gave birth to hit songs that not only took the nation by storm but also echoed across international borders.

If those Bongo Flava classic songs remind you of your secondary school or university days, maybe, it's a sweet whisper hinting at the perfect time to embrace a new chapter and say I do.

From Diamond Platnumz My Number One Remix that changed the Tanzanian Bongo Flava scene to Ali Kiba’s Mwana, a comeback hit that took home 5 awards at the 2015 Tanzania Music Awards, these are 10 Bongo Flava classic songs that are turning 10 in 2024.

1. My Number One Remix by Diamond Platnumz Feat. Davido

My Number One, a groundbreaking Bongo Flava track produced by Clever Touch and released in early 2014, revolutionized the genre's landscape. The music video, skillfully directed by Kenya's Ogopa Videos, qualified the song to earn airplay onto major African music channels like Channel O, MTV Base, and Soundcity.

This pivotal moment prompted artists like Vanessa Mdee, Navy Kenzo, Joh Makini, and Ali Kiba to venture to South Africa for international-standard music video productions.

This iconic song earned unparalleled recognition, winning an impressive 7 awards at the 2014 Tanzania Music Awards, along with three accolades at the Channel O Music Awards.

Credited with propelling Bongo Flava from Tanzania to the entire African continent, it stands as the most impactful East African song of the 2010s.

2. Hawajui - Vanessa Mdee

Dropped on November 25th, 2014 Hawajui eternally stands as the inaugural track by a Tanzanian female artist to thrust Bongo Flava into the African music scene.

The music video, helmed by South Africa's Niki Campos, garnered widespread exposure on MTV Base and other esteemed African music channels.

This Nahreel-produced gem not only showcased Vanessa's talent but also marked the initiation of her venture into the international music market.

3. Mwana - Ali Kiba

Ali Kiba's comeback hit, Mwana, remains a standout moment in Tanzanian music history.

Following a five-year hiatus, released on December 8, 2014 the song not only showcased his return but also featured a compelling message, a captivating fusion of uptempo soukous beats and Bongo Flava, and garnered immense hype.

This triumphant return led to the project's outstanding achievement, securing five awards at the 2015 Tanzania Music Awards.

4.Mfalme - Mwana FA Ft G Nako

In his 2014 hit Mfalme, Mwana FA imparted profound life advice, complimented by a Kevin Bosco directed music video.

G Nako's infectious chorus played a crucial role in elevating the song to smash-hit status, and its resonant lyrics have become popular choices for captions.

5. Bum Bum - Diamond Platnumz Ft Iyanya

Diamond Platnumz made a strategic move to strengthen his presence in Nigeria with Bum Bum, evident in the collaboration with Iyanya and the incorporation of pure Afrobeats—a departure from his usual style.

Released on July 7, 2014, the song, featuring Iyanya, received moderate fan reactions, but the choice of Moe Musa, a prominent African music video director at the time, to direct the video underscored Diamond Platnumz's ability to collaborate with top talents.

6. Ole Themba - Linah

Linah decided to pursue the South African market in 2014 by releasing Ole Themba, a love track that bared elements of South African music taste. The video of the song that dropped on 14th July 2016 was shot in South Africa by the heavyweight Godfather Production.

7. Gere - Weusi

Weusi reached unparalleled heights with their 2014 release, Gere, marking a milestone as their most significant smash hit.

This modern rap song that was nominated at the 2015 Kilimanjaro Tanzania Music Awards as the Song Of The Year, undoubtedly solidified their status as the foremost hip-hop group in East Africa during that period.

8.Mdogo Mdogo - Diamond Platnumz

Even a decade later, the enduring quality of the Mdogo Mdogo video is remarkable – it feels as fresh as the day the song was released, no wonder it won the Best Music Video Category at the 2015 Kilimanjaro Tanzania Music Awards.

Launched on 7th July and masterfully directed by Godfather Productions, Mdogo Mdogo stands as one of the pioneering Tanzanian hits that resonated across Africa.

9. Unanichora - Ben Pol Ft Joh Makini

Upon the release of Unanichora, it felt like Ben Pol and Joh Makini were on a mission to revive the fading R&B genre.

Emerging in the mid-2014 music scene, this R&B single became an undeniable hit, particularly owing to the captivating Nisher-directed music video that hooked you from the very beginning to the end.

10. Nani Kama Mama - Christian Bella & Ommy Dimpoz

A decade has flown by since the release of Nani Kama Mama, a Bongo Flava anthem that prompted sons and daughters to shower praises on their mothers.

The song's fame transcended borders, earning it a nomination at the 2015 Kilimanjaro Tanzania Music Awards, although it ultimately lost to Ali Kiba's Mwana.

Yet, the enduring impact of Nani Kama Mama lingers on, as it continues to resonate with audiences celebrating the timeless bond between mothers and their children.

Biography: How Rich Msafii is transforming the Tanzanian media landscape

Charles Maganga — Tue, 10 Sep 2024 17:04:00 +0000

Anyone who has already watched Lony Bway's Wewe Hapo music video will agree that one of the most eye-catching moments in the visual masterpiece, was the cameo by Rich Msafii, one of East Africa's hottest radio host, who delivered one of the most unforgettable music video intros of all time.

A few years ago, the Bongo Flava music industry was a different world. Entertainment presenters were often seen as gatekeepers and harsh critics, a factor that created a significant barrier between them and artists.

The relationship between musicians and presenters was at its lowest point, and no one could have predicted the shift we're seeing today.

Richard Richard Nyondo, better known as Rich Msafii, who currently hosts the popular Tanzanian radio program Planet Bongo, has played a pivotal role in breaking down the barriers between artists and presenters.

Msafii's approachable, friendly demeanor has earned him numerous high-profile friends in the Tanzanian entertainment industry, helping to dissolve the long-standing tension between artists and media figures.

His annual birthday parties, including the 2024 edition dubbed Party La Taifa, which saw attendance from various Tanzanian entertainment stars like Marioo, Meja Kunta, Zee Cuty, Jay Melody, TX Dullah, and many more, have demonstrated how likeable and popular Rich Msafii is in the Tanzanian entertainment scene.

Even with his bubbly and remarkable personality, Rich wouldn't have risen to his current heights without his incredible talent, which opened the door for him to host Planet Bongo, one of the most popular radio shows.

Since its debut in 2008, Planet Bongo has had only two permanent hosts before Rich: Salama Jabir, whom Rich regards as his role model, and Dullah Planet.

Equipped with his magnetic personality, charismatic on-air presence, exceptional voice, detective like research before sitting with his guests, and excellent interview skills, Rich is poised to remain a permanet fixture on Planet Bongo show for a long time to come.

In this interview, Rich Msafii will talk about his biography, inspirations, family background and everything you wished to know about the Tanzanian radio host.

This interview has been edited for clarity and brevity while retaining its essence:

A lot of people know you by the moniker Rich Msafi, but what's your real name, and when did you develop a passion for being a TV and radio host?

My real name is Richard Richard Nyondo. I was born and raised in Iringa, where I spent most of my childhood, but we later moved to Dar Es Salaam, which became my stepping stone to start hustling as a presenter.

For me, being a presenter was a passion that was in my blood. I remember back in my school days, during presentations, people started recognizing my abilities.

Whenever there was an opportunity to speak in public, they would call on me to take the stage. That's whenI realized I had a knack for being a presenter and a host. . My passion truly kicked into high gear around the time I was in Form IV.

When did you first start seriously considering TV and radio hosting as a professional career, and how did that journey begin?

East Africa Radio was where I got my first big break as a host. It was my starting point.

I was initially recruited to East Africa TV to host the E-News program. Later, I was handed the role of an informer for the infotainment segment called Off Air in Planet Bongo, and that’s where my radio career started.

The segment ran from 1:30 pm to 2:00 pm – just a half-hour slot. Soon enough, people started to realize that I had what it takes to be a radio host too, and before I knew it, I was juggling both radio and TV.

So where did you get the moniker Rich Msafi?

Growing up, my parents, being doctors, provided a comfortable lifestyle, so I kind of lived some sort of a soft life life while at school. I could afford to switch up my shirts every day from Monday to Friday without repeating any.

I always made an effort to look smart and i had this habit of sneaking into my mom’s room to use her perfumes and body sprays—let’s just say I was always well-scented. This helped me stand out wherever I went.

At school, people started calling me Sharobaro, meaning 'good-looking guy.' To set me apart from the other Richards, they began referring to me as Rich Msafi.

Interesting, so you didn’t choose the name Rich Msafi for yourself? It was actually your schoolmates who gave you that moniker?

Yes, that’s right. I was given the name Rich Msafi because I always stood out for being smart compared to other Richards. That’s why my slogan, which I coined back in school, has always been: Wakina Richard ni wengi lakini msafi ni mmoja tu

So, how did you land a role at East Africa Radio and get the opportunity to host Planet Bongo, which we all know is one of the top entertainment radio shows in Tanzania?

I joined East Africa Radio in 2020, initially to work on the E-News program. Although my first role was with East Africa TV, I eventually transitioned to East Africa Radio.

Later on, I got the opportunity to host a half-hour segment on Planet Bongo called Off Air, which led to me conducting artist interviews on the show.

As things progressed, it was decided that I would become a permanent co-host of Planet Bongo alongside Dulla Planet and Lesa Sid. When Dulla and Lesa Sid eventually left, I took on the role of permanent host.

Given that you’ve conducted countless interviews since your debut, what’s the most memorable guest interview you’ve ever had—one that stands out and you’ll never forget?

One interview that stands out as a blockbuster for me is with Salama Jabir, who is one of my role models. I used to watch and listen to her when I was young, so interviewing her was a dream come true.

My first interview with her was on E-News, and later I had the chance to host her on Planet Bongo. It was particularly special to be sitting in the seat she once occupied.

Another memorable interview was with Big Joe (Joseph Kusaga), a key figure in shaping the Tanzanian media industry. It was truly a pleasure to speak with him.

What other prominent guests have you interviewed since then?

One of my standout interviews was with Mwana FA. I had always wanted to chat with him during his peak as an artist, but it didn’t happen until he was serving as the Deputy Minister for Culture, Sports, and Arts. That made the interview even more special.

I’m also really proud of the interviews I did with Harmonize, Marioo, and Darassa. Getting to speak with Darassa after he’d been off the radar for a while was a big deal. Also my conversation with Ambwene Yesaya (AY) was truly memorable.

On top of that, I’ve had the pleasure of hosting some of the hottest rising stars like Dayoo, Kontawa, and Platform. Those moments have been incredibly rewarding.

What about on the international stage? Which artists have you had the chance to interview?

On the international stage, I've had the pleasure of interviewing some amazing artists. I had a great chat with Krizbeats, who produced the hit song 'African Beauty' from Diamond Platnumz’s Boy From Tandale album.

I also spoke with Ruger from Nigeria, the artist behind the hit track 'Dior.' Our conversation was fantastic.

Let’s shift gears and talk about your family for a bit. How many are in your family, and which schools did you go to?

I’m the firstborn in a family of two. I started my studies at St. Michael’s, where I completed Form One and Two, and then I moved to Image Vosa, where I finished my O-Level studies.

How challenging was it to break into the media space, particularly at East Africa Radio, which is one of the leading stations in Tanzania?

The main challenge was building the right connections. While being a presenter wasn’t inherently difficult for me, establishing the necessary connections to achieve my goal was.

I had to create a network and develop those relationships, which ultimately helped me reach where I am now.

Which radio hosts or media personalities inspired you to pursue a career in radio and presenting?

I have to be honest—B Dozen has been a major inspiration for me, especially in terms of branding and presentation in the media industry. I’ve always admired his work.

I’m also grateful for the chance I had to connect with my role models even before I was fully immersed in the entertainment industry.

Another significant influence is Salama Jabir. She’s my go-to role model for interviews. Whenever I’m about to interview someone who’s previously been interviewed by Salama, I make it a point to watch her interview first.

Given the nature of your work in radio and music, let’s wrap up this interview by talking about your favorite artists. Who are you currently listening to the most?

One of the artists I listen to most is Roddy Rich, along with Chris Brown.

In Tanzania, I enjoy a range of artists, including Diamond Platnumz, Ali Kiba, Marioo, Kontawa, Ney Wa Mitego, Nyandu Tozzy, and Mbosso.

However, Christina Shusho is the artist I listen to the most. I’d say she’s my favorite compared to the rest.

Intro
I’m tryna tell my friends this is different
Kama you got me end of the mission
They say “stop play we mzee are you going insane”
Unapewa nini masikio, you don’t listen
Bomboclaat (Sounds by Abbah)

Verse
Yeah, jana nilikuwa tips, eh
Kulimwagika pisi, eh
Maradhi pekee, ndio yangefichwa
Uzuri wako umenijaa kwa kichwa
Nikazikumbuka hips, eh
Unavyong’ata ng’ata lips, eh
I know that you miss me
Why don’t you come and kiss me, my baby, uh-uh

Verse
Aa, umetawala nchi kavu, umetanda angani
Unanipa mitihani, natokea njia gani
Uko nyumbani, uko mtaani, uko kazini, uko maskani, uko viwanjani, uko moyoni
Umejaa, jaa ndani
Matukio yana rewind-wind kichwani
You’re one of the kind, umeshinza wapinzani
Pozi zako, dah
Ile sura ya furaha
You’re my friend, you’re my lover, you’re my superstar

Pre-Chorus
Nimeshindwa, nimeshindwa kulala last night
Nikiangalia kitanda we used to play pillow fight
Come back to me, I’m not doing alright
Ukiona mtu mzima analia ujue vitu ziko tight

Chorus
Hata iwe mapenzi yamekwisha
Kumbuka kuna (mazoea)
Eh-eh, baby, uh-uh (mazoea)
Hata kama mapenzi yamekwisha
Yanabaki (mazoea)
Eh-eh, baby, uh-uh (mazoea)

Uh, uh

Bridge
Nakunywa pombe nilewe sababu ni wewe
Silewi zinanipalia, ooh (uuh)
Umenipatia
Uhuhu (uhuhu)
Unanijulia

Verse
Najipa imani, it’s okay
My heart is broken
Naogelea matope
Wacha nijikokote
Wacha nijiokote
It’s okay, it’s okay
Na sitafika popote, eh
Si unajua arosto, I’m in so pain
Your love inanipa addiction kama Cocain
Naona kabisa umeshanidamage on my brain
I’m so high captain jump off the plane

Pre-Chorus
Nimeshindwa, nimeshindwa kulala last night
Nikiangalia kitanda we used to play pillow fight
Come back to me, I’m not doing alright
Ukiona mtu mzima analia ujue vitu ziko tight

Chorus
Hata iwe mapenzi yamekwisha
Kumbuka kuna (mazoea)
Eh-eh, baby, uh-uh (mazoea)
Na hata kama mapenzi yamekwisha
Yanabaki (mazoea)
Eh-eh, baby, uh-uh (mazoea)

Outro
Yao, yao
It’s Konde Boy call me “Number one,” eh-ih
Konde Music Worldwide
They call me, “King Classic”
The Mix Killer
