Hi!
I was in Kenya Sept-Nov 2005 and there were a few songs on the radio that I want! Can you help me identify them: One sounded like 'kiasi' and the other 'vuta pumsi'. Vuta pumsi was something to do with HIV/AIDs and 'kiasi'- the lose translation was 'I am happy with the little I have.'
I lvoed these songs and would love to download them! So if anyoen knows the name of the artists and the real name of the songs (even album, if you know it) then I'd love to know!

Thanks anyone ;)
peace all

Kiasi is by Jua Cali and Vuta Pumzi is by Longombas
