Award-winning singer and TV & radio host Tallia Oyando has celebrated her long-standing friendship with Nazizi Hirji. She also praised the rapper for making a remarkable music comeback after the tragic loss of her son. In her heartfelt message, Tallia expressed gratitude for the pivotal role Nazizi has played in her career.
Tallia, who hosts the popular ‘One Love’ reggae show on Citizen TV, shared a post on Instagram reminiscing about the fun times they’ve had in the entertainment industry. The two have known each other since high school and even performed together on stage. Tallia wrote:
“Love you @nazizihirji, it was great to see you back on stage. I wish I had pics of us from high school or when we used to perform at the unis. You were a few years ahead of me and always looked out for me back then. No one messed with Naz 🤣 alikuwa nare wueh lol. And it warmed my heart how I came to be there for you Saturday night, but it was you who kept making sure I was okay. Love you to the moon and back, dada. I’ll forever be here for you, Natty Naz.”
She added, “Fun Fact – Nazizi gave me the name Ital Tallia when we had a radio show together way back when, and her late brother Firoz, who was my BFF, would make sure I got home safe every night, especially when I had these crazy stalkers. I wish I had a time machine. Mi Love unno maaaaad ❤️💛💚 #NightNurse”
Nazizi Hirji, a celebrated hip hop/reggae musician and actress, gained fame in the late ’90s after winning the talent contest Da Show. She later joined Necessary Noize, a music group consisting of Nazizi, Kevin Wyre, and Bamzigi. Some of her popular hits include “Kenyan Gal Kenyan Boy,” “Bless My Room,” “Let’s Get Down,” “Fire Anthem,” “Kube,” “Forever,” “Tension,” and “Jump n Shout,” among others.
