Malawi's most viewed video of all times is Esau Mwamwaya and Radioclit (Jointly known as "The Very Best") with their amazingly edited video "Kamphopo". The video filmed in Malawi has amassed more than 181,000 views even though it was posted less than 3 months ago on the video sharing website Youtube. The song emanates from Esau Mwamwaya's first album with Radioclit "The Very Best" which contained hit songs like Tengazako, a remix of M.I.A's Oscar award winning song "Paper Planes". In Kamphopo, Esau Mwamwaya declares his love for a girl whom he finds beautiful. Many viewers have expressed appreciation for the video and some feel drawn to the African continent through the video even if they have never gone there. After watching the Malawi video, Warlord0Dan, a Youtube viewer commented: "African people are great! look at them, most of them are probably poor but just watch how happy they are in this vid. I love their spirit and the music"
For the song, Esau Mwamwaya teamed up with the British duo DJs Radioclit and together they are working on an upcoming album which is anticipated by many. Mwamwaya sings in Chichewa, English, Tumbuka and Zulu. He has been called by many the Malawian Michael Jackson.

ESAU MWAMWAYA: Biography, Pictures, Discography, Videos



Esau Mwamwaya is a Malawian musician who sings traditional music and a melange of pop and reggae. Esau Mwamwaya was born in Mzuzu (Northern Malawi) but was raised in the Malawian capital, Lilongwe. While growing up he learned to play several musical instruments with different "garage bands." One of his close friends was the Malawian reggae legend; Evison Matafale (Who created the Black Missionaries, the famous group before his death in 2001) When he moved to London, England (in 99), Mwamwaya was not preoccupied with music until by coincidence he met the duo band and djs known as Radioclit (The swede Johan Karlberg and Etienne Tron, the French). From then, the trio composed songs that are acclaimed by many critics.

They have finished a project entitled "The Very Best" which is a mixtape. It contains Esau's Mwamwaya's compositions with the musical arrangements of the Radioclit duo. Some of the songs included are Tengazako, Boyz(with Mia and Akon) and Cape Code's Kwasakwasa, Kamphopho, Wena (In Zulu and Xhosa and Chichewa), Get it up (feat Mia), Funa Funa and others.
Esau Mwamwaya and Radioclit mainly sing in Chichewa and Tumbuka.
