ISABELLA – GABIRO MTU NECESSARY (LYRICS)
Isabella naogopa unasepa
Isabella ya kwetu kumbuka
Isabella naomba ukumbuke
Isabella naomba ukumbuke
Isabella, ningekuwa na pesa ningekupa duka
Ju unaenda njoo tuseti moja uketi chini ukivuta
Oh mama kabla ukwende nipe busu nitakumbuka
Nipe tena, nikilala usingizi usiku naota
I’m stricken I can’t deny
Ukarimu wako ndo unakupa sifa
And am stuck here for life
I can’t move you are my ride or die
Isabella naogopa unasepa
Isabella ya kwetu kumbuka
Isabella naomba ukumbuke
Isabella naomba ukumbuke
Ukifika uipige simu yangu
Nabaki na nani?
Unaniacha mpweke
Nitachekwa nyumbani vile nimetokwa na mke
Sifumi sioni umenipiga mateke
I just feel like you are the one
Labda moyo inanipa mtihani
Ukifika London
Utume please call me nikope mama
Ukirudi London
Waambie sifa za huku nyumbani Kenya
I’m stricken I can’t deny
Ukarimu wako ndo unakupa sifa
And am stuck here for life
I can’t move you are my ride or die
Isabella naogopa unasepa
Isabella ya kwetu kumbuka
Isabella naomba ukumbuke
Isabella naomba ukumbuke
GABIRO MTU NECESSARY BIO
Starting out as a traditional band member back in 2013, Gabiro Mtu Necessary drew his earliest
inspirations from the likes of Octopizzo, Lucky Dube, Khuli Chana, Juliani and a host of others.
Having had a brief spell at Maseno University studying Finance and later Android and Cellular Software development before he dropped out in his third year to pursue a career in music, Gabiro was always in touch with his music which spurred him to write his 1st song in 2014 titled Story .

The song went on to bag him an award at the prestigious Tecno Vybez Awards that same year, the song “Story” went on to receive rave reviews.
He later got back to studio and released another single, “Naitwa Gabiro” . During this time, he met the talented producer, Malique and together, they created a new direction for Gabiro’s music and released the hit single, Ujumbe On the same year of 2014 a number of collaborations were released by Gabiro and within few months of
their release, the songs gained massive airplay on radio and also in clubs nationwide, the songs rose to the top and dominated the charts on a number of radio stations countrywide. As a result of the success of the singles and collaborations a household name came into being, Mtu Necessary.
He is steadily building a reputation for Kisumu’s best lyricist, and but also shares his personal struggles through his art. From working as a matatu tout to battling drug abuse, Gabiro’s ability to tell stories separates him from rap music ‘status quo’.
“Hip-hop inspired me to persevere. Persevere and self-educate myself. When I was going through it, the thing that held me down was an old computer at my uncle’s place that I stored thousands of downloaded beats. That’s why I’m so loyal to the cause and loyal to the culture. I feel like I owe it to Hip-hop to do the best I can” – Gabiro
While many rappers tell us their story, Gabiro possesses the ability to bring you into his world and show it to you. Perhaps his most notable song, “Story” , is a story of stories that happen in real life but they are often ignored . In dramatic fashion, this song discusses bullying, police shootings, drug abuse and political injustice. There are few artists that connect with such issues through their music.
Gabiro’s diversity has seen him transit from not only being a rapper but also being the best lyricist as is evident on his current releases ‘Bad Girl Loving’ and ‘Kus Kus’. He portrays himself as the best export from the lakeside town of Kenya; Kisumu city where he has always made sure to be top of the class by being ahead of at least all trends and lifestyles pertaining to music.
To date Gabiro has performed and toured along several renowned artists including SautiSol during “Made In Kisumu” ,Jose Chameleone, Macklemore, as well as shows like “2jinyce Concert” which holds sentimental value to Gabiro being that he is a Kisumu City native. His show that meant a lot was when he opened for Diamond Platnumz in 2016.
He has worked with both young and well-known artists across the globe in both musical and non-musical collaborations including and not limited to Kidis, Wyre, Ketchup,Owuor Arunga and most recently the new gengetone crew Kavirondo Gang.
