Lava Lava – Maneno

Tanzanian Bongo Flava singer and hit-maker **Lava Lava** has released a new tune named **”Maneno.”**

On the continent, Lava Lava is known for his smooth vocal register, soulful writing, and ability to translate street chats into catchy songs. In this joint, Lava Lava speaks to neighborhood talks, gossip, and cacophony that often surround romantic relationships and personal accomplishment.

The sound is a bright, mid-tempo Bongo Flava soundscape built with clean acoustic guitar riffs, beautiful keyboard chords, and snappy percussion shakers. A cheerful Afro-pop drum kick rolls effortlessly over a fluid, melodic bassline. Keeping the groove swinging, with an appealing bounce and an airy, minimalist composition. Meanwhile, the expansive sound engineering allows every subtle vocal line, falsetto transition and layered backing harmony to cut clean through the mix.
