Biography

Also called Mr. Chicks or Mr. Misifa, Dully Sykes is a bongo flava artiste from Tanzania. He is the grandson of Abdulwahid Sykes. Sykes has previously performed in the United Kingdom, and he is regarded as one of the trailblazers of Swahili dancehall in the African Great Lakes area. He is renowned for hit songs like “Historia ya Kweli,” “Julieta,” “Leah,” and “Salome.” Few of his tracks are based on true events. Following the release of his debut album, Historia ya kweli, in 2003, people began referring to his music as mwanasesele, a Swahili language term meaning “high squeaking noise.” The track “Handsome” and an album of the same name made him one of the biggest artistes in Tanzania’s urban music. He has made music at his Dar es Salaam – based record label known as Dhahabu Records. He still writes songs. He has sung the hooks of many artiste’s songs, including P-Funk’s “Please Forgive Me” and Man X’s “Nimechezea Bahati.” Out Here Records, an international record label, added one of Sykes’ tracks, “Handsome,” to the African Rebel Music Roots reggae and dancehall CD compilation. Sykes is notable for his longevity and relevance in the entertainment scene, as the majority of his contemporaries have lost relevance. His latest single is entitled Weka and features Marioo.
