Acclaimed singer-songwriter duo We Are Nubia, composed of Maggie Atieno and Gloria Munga, has officially released their heartwarming new single, “Alhamdulillah.” Distributed globally via ONErpm, the track serves as a reflective celebration of growth, resilience, and the milestone moments that once felt like distant dreams.
Known for their commanding stage presence, rich vocal harmonies, and expressive Swahili storytelling, the Nairobi-based pair has forged a distinct identity within East Africa’s Afro-pop and contemporary R&B landscapes. On “Alhamdulillah,” We Are Nubia channels their artistic synergy into an uplifting expression of thanksgiving, honoring the journey that brought them to their current height.
The record captures the exhilaration of overcoming past hurdles—from celebrating progress and catching flights to enjoying the tangible rewards of hard work. Adding a tender emotional anchor, the Swahili phrase “mama natabasam” highlights a mother’s smile and the comfort of maternal faith, acknowledging those who believed in their vision long before the world took notice.
Through “Alhamdulillah,” We Are Nubia transforms personal achievement into a shared celebration, encouraging listeners to recognize their own growth, appreciate their support systems, and look back on past seasons with a grateful heart.
