Our Music is unheard of

[04/08 5:00 pm] Peter Kirima: The Luhya community is so attached to central and south afri an music. You can take this to the bank that no other community in the republic listens to lingala or rhumba other than mentioned. Could it be reason why most of listeners of swahili fm stations including KBC are Luhya's? the radios are before you; most of callers in these stations are luhyas. There is a connection here.They say  lingala is close to most luhya language.these western bantus historically came largely from central africa region. You will be shocked , it could be that the music of Saniaga progenitors had oromo, nubia, arabic influences. The uglyness of being assimilated. my hypothesis here.

[04/08 5:03 pm] Lung'afa: The love I have for Ohangla, benga & Limpopo would suggest a luo origin...though lingala reigns

[04/08 5:18 pm] Peter Kirima: I love music from Mali, berbers/touregs,oromo and arab influences

[04/08 5:22 pm] Mudengani Kisia: Lingala is closer to taita, and so is taita closer to l'logori. When I speak some say inaenda kama kitaita.

[04/08 5:38 pm] Peter Kirima: I have listened to comoro language spoken comoros island and it south pretty much similar to Taita. I told people here that murogooli must have came along the coastline from the north and mingled with other eastern bantus....

[04/08 5:40 pm] Lung'afa: Bibilical story could be some long time 'oral' story told to preserve tribes. Any community that doesn't think isn't 'israelite'? a a

[04/08 5:41 pm] Peter Kirima: The tribes in South Sudan

[04/08 5:42 pm] Lung'afa: That they are?

[04/08 5:42 pm] ‪+254 795 401807‬: Are the most strongest people

[04/08 5:43 pm] Peter Kirima: They carry the most ancient african gene

[04/08 5:43 pm] Lung'afa: The atlantis? Titans? Cyclops?

[04/08 5:44 pm] Lung'afa: Lamuka, how strong? One could be how many llb's?

[04/08 5:46 pm] Lung'afa: And there are beautiful songs sang in previous years by varogoori. They aren't being frequently played

[04/08 5:49 pm] Peter Kirima: I am yet to hear maragoli songs. They can be so cool.
