Mumbai, July 30 (IANS) Nora Fatehi has joined hands with popular Tanzanian musician and songwriter Rayvanny for a vibrant cross-cultural collaboration titled “Tetema.”
The track, which blends African and Indian musical influences, promises an energetic fusion of rhythms, dance, and global appeal. The peppy number is said to be a high-octane global fusion track that brings Afro-Bongo energy together with a multilingual, cross-cultural twist. As per sources, the recreated version is likely to be titled “Oh Mama Tetema,” inspired by the original hit by Rayvanny and Diamond Platnumz.
This time, Nora Fatehi won’t just feature visually but will also lend her voice to the track, bringing her signature style with a dynamic blend of English, Swahili, and Hindi lyrics.
