King Chambiecco

Bio

King Chambiecco is one of the best Malawian dancehall musicians. He made a name in the industry by adding traditional genres in his music thus forming a unique rapping and singing style. He grew up in Chitete, a micro ghetto in the heart of Kasungu District. His passion for music began when he was young. Back then, he would listen to artists such as Beenie Man, Bounty Killer, Sizzla Kalonji, Elephant Man, Mad Character, Luciano and Buggle Tanks. This prompted him to form a music band with his friends. They used home made instruments but managed to pull large crowds during their performances. The performances marked the beginning of his career.

He joined other bands such a Kasungu and later decided to record a debut single called ‘Ukapolo’ (Slavery). Between 2009 and 2013, he released a number of songs such as ‘Kachere’, ‘Lero’, ‘Tivina’, ‘Anga Alikuti’, ‘Password’, ‘Pakamodzi’, ‘Mkazi Tabwera’ featuring Mafunyeta and NesNes, and ‘Kuli Luso’.

In March 2014, he signed a two year management contract with Prime Time Media. In November of that year, he released singles 'Blackout Again' and 'Gateman'. In January 2015, he dropped a video called 'Ndizamugogoda'. He is reportedly recording songs for his mixtape that will be released in December 2015.

Apart from his home town, he has also performed in several places like Lilongwe, Salima, Mzuzu, Mzimba, Nkhotakota, Ntcheu and Dowa.
