“Sister Bettina” had lyrics that raised eyebrows, but its message resonated with many. The song’s core message was about enjoying our youth to the fullest. While it gained immense popularity, it faced radio restrictions due to explicit content, leading to a plea for a radio-friendly version. Despite its massive success, Mgarimbe received no awards for this iconic track.

Over the years, Mgarimbe continued to perform “Sister Bettina” at various gigs, maintaining its relevance. He collaborated with Cassper Nyovest on “Gologo no Beer,” but it never matched the impact of his signature song. After the Cassper feature, he disappeared from the music scene, leaving fans wondering about his whereabouts. Like many artists, his path remains unknown, and we hope he is doing well.



10 Highest Paying Jobs That Don’t Require A Degree

Exploring High-Income Careers Without a Degree

Traditionally, it has been believed that a four-year degree is necessary to land a high salary job. However, for many individuals, obtaining a degree may not be possible due to limited finances or other personal circumstances. The good news is that it is still possible to secure a career and earn a high, stable income, even as much as six-figure salaries, without obtaining a degree.

Karl Sandor’s Perspective

Karl Sandor, Chief Marketing Officer at the award-winning marketing agency The Growth Guys, believes that from his experience, “hard skills grow obsolete every 18 months, while agility, testing, and empathy drive results.
