Ayub Ogada Biography, Songs downloads and social life

Ayub Ogada was born in 1956 in Mombasa, Kenya. He is a descendant of the Luo people of western Kenya, and his parents, both musicians, influenced him with their musical heritage. They performed Luo music for Kenyan and American audiences. Ayub's experience travelling to the United States with his parents, as well as his exposure to both Western and African cultures, had a significant impact on his music and outlook.

Ayub embraced both traditional and modern music while attending school in Kenya, where he played various instruments in bands. After leaving school in 1979, he co-founded the African Heritage Band, which fused traditional music with the rock and soul sounds that Ogada and his bandmates heard on the radio on a regular basis.
