The 2015 hit single Nitakupwelepweta by Yamoto Band is still one of the biggest songs to be released by a Tanzanian band and currently enjoys almost five million views on YouTube. The ensemble, made up of fast-rising stars, became an instant hit after the single.
The same year, they released follow up releases such as Mpaka Nizikwe and Cheza kwa Madoido and quickly rose to regional prominence.
