"Buzi" is a classic Tanzanian R&B track by featuring Inspector Haroun , released in the early 2000s. In Swahili slang, a "Buzi" (literally "goat") refers to a wealthy person—often a man—who is being financially exploited or "milked" by a partner.
Listening to "Buzi" today is a time machine back to the days of Bongo Records and the raw, authentic sound of the "Bongo Flava" revolution. It reminds us of a time when music was about storytelling and local identity.

Known for his smooth, melodic vocals, he brought the "lover boy" energy that defined early Bongo R&B.

As a pioneer of the Kipepeo style and a member of Gangwe Mobb, Haroun brought the gritty, humorous, and relatable street flow that bridged the gap between the club and the neighborhood. 3. A Nostalgic Masterpiece
