Artist: Marioo ft. Harmonize
Song Title: Pombe
Genre: Bongo Flava / Afrobeats
Release Date: May 29, 2026
Tanzanian hitmaker Marioo continues his impressive run of form with his latest offering, “Pombe” — a smooth, intoxicating record that lives up to its name in every sense, delivering a sound that is rich, warm, and irresistibly easy to get lost in.
To elevate the record further, he links up with one of East Africa’s most recognisable and celebrated voices, the ever-reliable Harmonize — and the pairing feels as natural as it does exciting. Two of Tanzania’s finest on one record is always a statement, and they deliver accordingly.
Built on a bed of rhythmic Bongo Flava grooves layered with contemporary Afrobeats production, “Pombe” strikes the perfect balance between modern and familiar. Marioo commands the record with his signature melodic swagger, while Harmonize slides in effortlessly, adding his trademark vocal flair and cross-genre appeal that gives the track an even wider reach.
Lyrically, the song leans into the carefree, celebratory side of life — the kind of record that feels at home on a late-night playlist as much as it does on the dancefloor. Easy, breezy, and utterly enjoyable, “Pombe” is exactly the kind of collaboration East African music fans have been waiting for.
