Well, my bad. I should have known that Malaika is an award wining South African Afro-pop group. This group is mentioned numerous places online, including Afropop Worldwide website that highlights the Kora 2004 Awards. Malaika {South Africa} and JJC & 419 Squad (Nigeria/ UK) wone the award for Best African Group.

This song is definitely not sung in English. One commentor mentions that it is very popular in SA {which I assume means the nation of South Africa} so maybe it was recorded by the South African group Malaika.
