Dege Mc takes a more reflective route on his latest release, “Prisoner,” a new track that shows a different side of the Tanzanian artist. The Singeli and Bongo Fleva act premiered the song alongside its official music video on September 9, 2026.
Known for his energetic approach to Singeli, Dege Mc slows things down on “Prisoner” to explore a more serious and introspective sound. The record touches on personal struggles, the pressures of life in Dar es Salaam, and the experience of dealing with judgment from people around you.
Rather than relying on the fast-paced energy often associated with his music, Dege Mc uses a more measured delivery to give the song room to breathe. This change in pace allows the message to come through clearly while maintaining elements of the Bongo Fleva and Singeli sound that define his musical identity.
Released under Chamazi Music, “Prisoner” adds a different dimension to Dege Mc’s growing catalogue. Coming after releases such as “Umatenda (Remix)” featuring Lody Music, the track shows his willingness to explore a deeper side of his artistry.
