At least nine big names in the country\u2019s music industry, have for the past seven days released their debut tunes for the year, but Eli Njuchi\u2019s \u2018Gu Gu Gu\u2019 seems to have won hearts of most Malawians as it continues enjoying massive airplays.<\/p>\n<p>Since Friday last week, Patience Namadingo has released his single, \u2018Sugar\u2019, while Gwamba featured Piksy in \u2018Halleluya\u2019 and in the other hand Janta featured Henwood in \u2018Khumbe\u2019 with Dan Lu releasing \u2018Salembedwa pamphumi\u2019, just to mention but a few.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, most of these artists highly praised and declared their songs \u2018hits\u2019 prior to their release, which was not the case with Gu Gu Gu which came out silently via MBC radio 2\u2019s show, \u2018Made on Monday\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>However, the five-day-old \u2018Gu Gu Gu\u2019 which comes off Njuchi\u2019s new album, \u2018The Red Flag\u2019 EP, has of recent silenced them all as it continues growing wings, becoming the most played tune in town.<\/p>\n<p>As of Friday, the hit song which is about a lover expressing hurt feelings over lies from some friends, had over 118,000 views on YouTube and over 140,000 views on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>Upon being asked as to why there wasn\u2019t much noise from him prior to releasing the hit, Njuchi who was born Chifuniro Magalasi, attributed the silence to as his life style in the music industry.<\/p>\n<p>The reigning Dancehall star, told Malawi24 that he believes that making unnecessary noise could only derail what he wants to give people in as far as music is concerned but he has promised his fans superb hits in his next album which is to be released June month end.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can only talk about our plan, the plan was in play, what I wanted was to create a product that can drive the kind of quality that\u2019s needed. I strongly believe once you are aware what you want to produce it\u2019s clearer on how to push such.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy fans should expect more amazing music with a lot of storytelling and afro dancehall. The Red Flag is a project I have worked on for over a year, so it\u2019s a package for everyone that love Njuchi Music,\u201d said Njuchi.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Gu Gu Gu has received numerous praises from fans and some of the industry\u2019s icons with Kelvin Sulugwe saying the song becomes Malawi\u2019s third hit that blew up within 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am writing about him for the first time, just to certify that Gu Gu Gu is a hit song, the third song to blow up in a day after Gwamba\u2019s Better and Onesimus Muzik\u2019s Miracle Money, congrats Eli Njuchi,\u201d Sulugwe wrote on his Facebook page.<\/p>\n<p>The legendary Lulu has also applauded the \u2018Zitaye\u2019 star for his maturity in music and he has promised to perform for free at \u2018The Red Flag\u2019 album launch in July at Mangochi stadium while on the other hand videographer, Sukez, says Gu Gu Gu visuals, is one of the best videos he has watched this year.<\/p>\n<p>As if that was not enough, musician Tay Grin, Piksy and Kell Kay just to mention a few, while commenting on a post in one of entertainment pages on Facebook, Mikozi, said the hit song is so impressive.<\/p>\n<p>Gu Gu Gu beat was created by Nigerian beat maker Jostopac while the audio has been recorded and mastered by Sispence and Hendrix and Viny Visuals are the ones who have crafted the video.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
