Professor Jay in the Building

July 29th, 2010 | Posted by Kate Preziosi

Tanzanian hip-hop sensation Professor Jay stopped by the Malaria No More office in New York this morning during what is his first visit to the United States. Professor Jay is one of our greatest allies in the Zinduka! Malaria Haikubaliki (Wake Up! Malaria is Unacceptable) program to spread a culture of malaria control across Tanzania.
Professor Jay is a Tanzanian hip hop artist. The type of music he sings is also called Bongo Flava, which often represents the hardships of Tanzanian life, including malaria HIV/AIDS, inequality, and struggling to meet basic needs.
Professor Jay has won several awards, including best hip-hop album in Tanzania.
