One of great african hits from 70's This song is very popular in my city Barranquilla ( Colombia ) where is known as "mazuza". In 70's african music came to barranquilla and still remains today very popular. Songs like "one day suffer go finish" by Super negro bantous, "aki special" by prince nico mbarga and artist like mbilia bell and pepe kalle are very popular. This music will live forever.
