Raised in a musical household, Barnaba was destined for greatness. His mother, a choir leader, and his father, a guitarist, nurtured his talent from a young age. This musical upbringing played a significant role in shaping Barnaba’s career, and by the age of 17, he had already begun making waves in the industry with hits like “Njia Panda” and “Baby I Love You”.

“Itakuwaje” is a soulful reflection on love, life’s uncertainties, and emotional conflicts, a common theme in Barnaba’s music. The track features rich instrumentation with a bassline played by Eria Bass, complementing Barnaba’s smooth, melodic voice. The song’s arrangement, handled by Greatest Band TZ, brings a unique sound that blends contemporary Bongo Fleva with traditional Tanzanian rhythms.
