Atemi Oyungu Presents “Mambo Yalivyo” – A Lyrical Music Narration at Nairobi Street Kitchen
Nairobi, Kenya – July 31, 2025 — One of Kenya’s most revered vocalists and storytellers, Atemi Oyungu, returns to the stage this Friday, August 1st, with a powerful and intimate musical experience: “Mambo Yalivyo – A Lyrical Music Narration.” Hosted at the vibrant Nairobi Street Kitchen, this one-night-only performance promises a deep, soul-stirring evening that blends live music, poetic storytelling, and authentic personal truth.
“Mambo Yalivyo”, Swahili for “the way things are”, is not your ordinary concert. It’s a reflective journey told through Atemi’s iconic voice, taking the audience through chapters of love, loss, resilience, and rediscovery. Accompanied by a live band and thoughtfully crafted arrangements, the show strips music down to its emotional core.
Atemi, known for her deeply emotive vocals and award-winning work across soul, R&B, and Afro-fusion, invites her audience to experience music as a mirror, a balm, and a conversation.
“This is a show about truth,” Atemi shared in a pre-show note. “It’s about holding space for real stories—mine and yours—and honoring them through song. We’re letting the lyrics speak this time.”
Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to Atemi’s work, “Mambo Yalivyo” is a moment to slow down, listen, and feel.
