U can’t talk about the NEW GENERATION OF HIP HOP without mentioning COUNTRY WIZZY in the
same sentence. It’s the same thing. He’s the one who introduced us to HIP HOP in Tanzania- the

Most of his songs contain R&B and HipHop elements, and he combines rapping with singing.
Country Wizzy also attempted to incorporate Trap and Dancehall to create a grandiose sound.
