The CD has one bonus poem, he refers to as the “Silent Poem”.
“The launch was amazing. It was far more than what I expected. I was hoping that people would come to the show, but I did not expect the numbers that we got.
My goal was to make people understand that poetry is something they can respect and enjoy. A lot of people walked away with plenty respect for the art, and I can say it was successful.”
Marumbo also performed at the Lake of Stars and Tumaini Festival this year, among other events and shows.
