Rikki’s second album, Sunshine Love, features tracks that mostly have a
tilt towards western music both in lyrical content and sound. Songs like
“Angel Black,” “Love is the Only Way,” “Working on the Wrong Thing,”
“Ulemu” and “Munzi Wa Kangwanda” were lovely hits for both the young and
the old. The song “Ulemu” touches on the need to respect each other’s
occupations. It matters less whether one is a cleaner, waiter or
fishmonger; they all deserve respect for their service to humanity.
“Munzi Wa Kangwanda” tells a sad story of how some traditions could be
retrogressive. A girl comes of age and is taken into initiation
seclusion as per tradition. During the seclusion she is not to take a
bath nor speak but listen to her tutors on sex and life matters. Due to
these unhygienic conditions, she dies.
