Konde Music Worldwide

Based in
Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Founded
2020
Founder
Rajabu Abdul Kahali (Harmonize)

Tanzanian record label founded by Rajabu Abdul Kahali, the Bongo Flava artist Harmonize, and also referred to in its own statements as Konde Gang Music Worldwide. Its first signing, announced by Harmonize on 13 April 2020, was the singer Ibraah (Ibrahim Abdallah Nampunga). Konde Music Worldwide is the phonogram owner named on Ibraah lead-artist releases from April 2020 to February 2024 in Apple Music and Deezer catalogue metadata. A suspension notice issued in May 2025 was announced by Harmonize Entertainment Limited acting through the Konde Gang Music Worldwide label, which is the only sourced statement of the relationship between the two names. Whether Konde Music Worldwide is a separately registered Tanzanian company or a trading name could not be established: Tanzania has no public company search accessible to this desk.
