Thika cover art

Thika

Thika is a high-energy Afrobeat and Gengetone anthem that turns a universally relatable situation into pure comedic gold. With razor-sharp storytelling, Markus recounts the chaotic misadventure of visiting a woman in Thika only to find himself dealing with a suspicious shadow, a machete-wielding boyfriend, a missing pair of underwear, and wishing for a last-minute disguise as an electrician.
