Soul Makossa Lyrics: Makossa / Akeela / Mama ko mama sa maka makossa / Mama ko mama sa maka makossa / Mama ko mama sa maka makossa / Mama ko mama sa maka makossa / Hey soul makossa / Su maiyea / Hey. “Mama-say-mama-sa-mama-coosa”, which translates to “you’re a vegetable, you’re a vegetable” in the language of Duala, is a lyric taken from “Soul Makoosa”, a funk song. Cameroonian musician Manu Dibango had filed a lawsuit against both Rihanna and Michael Jackson, claiming the artists have nicked one of his hooks. It was released worldwide on September 7, 2007, as the fourth single of the album. The song was written by Tawanna Dabney and its producers StarGate; Michael Jackson also received a songwriting credit for the sampling of the line "Mama-say, mama-sa, ma-ma-ko-ssa" from Jackson's 1983 single "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'". But she came up anyway, and as Jackson sang to the world, “Mama say mama sa mamakusa,” she broke into her own happy dance.
