She left Africa for Europe, where she met her producer and collaborated on numerous songs in Swahili and Kirundi, her native language. Her albums are a fusion of occidental pop music, African, and Afro-Cuban rhythms. She gained widespread recognition with her hit "Sambolera Mayi Son." Her album "Ya..." ("From Me to You") is a heartfelt tribute to Nelson Mandela, and the video for her song "Mama" was directed by Jeanne Moreau.
