Man Fongo
Man Fongo is a well-known name in the Singeli music scene and is considered one of the pioneers of the genre in Tanzania.
Born and raised in Dar es Salaam, he began his journey in music in 2006 as a street DJ, playing a locally developed genre known as Vigodoro. Vigodoro was widely played in the suburbs of Dar es Salaam and became popular for its high energy and all-night dance events.
In 2010, Man Fongo officially transitioned into singing Singeli music. He released his debut single titled "Simuamini Mganga" (I Don’t Believe the Witch Doctor), followed by another track titled "Police Babylon", among others.
His major breakthrough came in 2016 with the release of the hit song "Hainaga Ushemeji", which significantly boosted his popularity and established him as one of the top Singeli artists in Tanzania.
Man Fongo has performed on both local and international stages, including Singeli Fest (Tanzania) Boiler Room (Tanzania) Indian Ocean Music Market (Reunion Island)
