The song was produced by Jaysterio from Vinondo House Music studio while its video was shot by director ES. 

In 'Corona', Timamu highlights the importance of personal hygiene in the fight against the spread of the virus. The song also urges people to seek medical attention as soon as they experience symptoms such as a cough, fever and chest pain.

"I believe that you have all been waiting for me to release this song," Tamimu wrote on Instagram last week. "Now that it's out, I urge all of you to share it amongst your loved ones so that they can be educated about this coronavirus disease. Do not take the virus lightly."

A number of songs about the coronavirus have been released in Tanzania lately, but to Tamimu's credit, his track is the first in the fast-paced singeli genre.
