Mwanaa is a Kenyan rapper, poet, songwriter, and performing artist best known as one-half of the musical duo Vijana Barubaru. Recognised for his sharp lyricism and ability to turn everyday Nairobi experiences into memorable lines. On his new single, “Furaha,” featuring Dodo and Gogo Ashley, Mwanaa turns his attention to joy.

Throughout the song, the artists draw attention to the everyday moments that make life meaningful. Waking up to a new morning, hearing a child laugh, or finding comfort in the embrace of someone you love becomes a reminder that happiness can be found in places we often overlook. Rather than tying joy material success or the absence of problems, “Furaha” encourages listeners to appreciate what they already have.

The song acknowledges that choosing joy does not mean ignoring pain or pretending that life is easy.Instead, it finds reassurance in faith and the presence of God, offering the reminder that life’s challenges need not be faced alone.
