MATATA - TUMA MADOO | Black Tax (Official Music Video)

´´Tuma Madoo´´ is a powerful and thought-provoking track that dives deep into the concept of Black Tax—a cultural phenomenon experienced by many Africans and other nationalities worldwide. This concept refers to the financial responsibility of supporting family and community beyond personal obligations.

The song reflects on the joys, challenges, and resilience involved in fulfilling these expectations, shedding light on a reality many can relate to but rarely discuss in music.

Through soulful rhythms and captivating melodies, Tuma Madoo delivers an authentic Kenyan and African vibe, blending traditional influences with contemporary sounds. It’s not just a song—it’s a conversation starter about balancing dreams with duties, navigating family ties, and finding empowerment in shared responsibilities.

Okay, I get it. the 1st scene with the mops symbolizes the hardship people abroad go through to just make ends meet. In the 2nd scene, Matata are eating bread crumbs to depict they are broke after working hard and sending money to their relatives i.e Tuma Madoo. The Portal scene ( These guys are genius though) They enter into the world of their relatives; and to their surprise kumbe watu wanapiga sherehe bana. Matata decides to nyakua what they can and enjoy pia because wamekua wakijinyima kufurahisha watu. My fav scene is the last scene where the borrowing hand has no limit and ends up taking everything to the point where the guys are evicted! I do not know about you, but me- THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST MUSIC VIDEO I HAVE SEEN. From script, cinematography the production and performance of the audio - 10/10. Receive your flowers- MATATA MATATA.

I don't think @Matata know the weight of this song, the message relates so much with people of diaspora. to have made a symphony out of a plight good job guys, "maju maju majukumu, maju maju nikugumu, " well said..

[chrisbugame]

The video is like a movie. Feels short like an AD.
But delivered more than all Kenya presidential regimes combined 😅
