These are very beautiful Nichi.

I love is voice and easy melodies. I am not that keen on African singers as a general rule as they are often too harsh, and the melodies too basic, but sometimes they can do it extremely well, as with this guy.

I have some "Ayub Ogada" trivia:

Ayub has also supplemented his music career with some acting in the past under the name Job Seda. He played Robert Redford's Masaii sidekick in Out of Africa and also starred in Kitchen Toto.


I remember the Masai character in Out of Africa ... he had a lot of presence.
