Month: June 2012

It is unfortunate that Camp Mulla will not be able to travel to the U.S. for the BET Awards. But the subject of artistes missing chances to showcase their work at big stages is not new. Bigger artistes have missed bigger shows. Usually timing and logistical issues are to blame in such scenarios.

Lilly Allen had her Visa revoked after getting involved in a fight with British paparazzi just as she was about to appear at the MTV Video Music Awards. A reason was never given but it is believed to be due to her arrest after the incident.

Earlier this year, Spanish star, Pitingo found that his name was on a “no fly” list after going to pick up his Visa for an already planned show in the U.S. The singer unfortunately shared a name with a known terrorist. Even though the Embassy in Madrid knew he wasn’t the one, they had to follow rules and freeze the process.

The story closest to Camp Mulla is Amy Winehouse’s. She could also not get her Visa processed in time. It finally was but it was too late to travel for the biggest music awards show where she had been nominated for six Grammies. She had to not only receive her awards but perform via satellite. Winehouse’s Visa was approved barely 48 hours before the Grammy telecast. It had previously been denied due to a drug violation, which Winehouse had apparently breached.

Thanks to 9/11, Visa regulations have not only become stricter but there are very few special considerations. The U.S. Embassies around the world are more wary and leave no space for slip-ups. In case anything goes wrong, their considerations will be treated as blunders.

So, news hit the Interwebs that Camp Mulla might not perform at the BET Awards. But this is not the first time this is happening to the group. The group seems to run into bad luck every time they have to make big appearances.

A few months ago, the group was considered good enough to perform at the opening of the biggest shows on the continent, Big Brother. But a few days to the show, it was reported that the group would not be able to perform at the premiere of one of the most watched shows in Africa. They managed to later perform at one of BBA’s eviction shows, though.

Barely two months later, it has happened again. The date the group was scheduled to interview for Visas was too close to the awards ceremony. They unsuccessfully petitioned to have the interview deferred to an earlier date. An awards show appearance is not a case serious enough for the U.S. Embassy to treat with special consideration.

Their BET nomination and appearance was a much hyped affair, with the young group getting a lot of airtime on media and fueling debate on the group’s success on social networks. The group has missed the two biggest chances of their career, but they talented. In the end, that’s all that matters.

For the many who cannot hear Kikuyu, our friend Evans has translated snippets of the songs and in Demathew’s case explained the nuances as he sings in parables. You can ask your Kikuyu friends to translate further.

Uhuru ni Witu (Uhuru is Ours) – Kamande wa Kioi

{youtube}BgSlFvzpcLo{/youtube}

Translated snippets:
Greetings people of the house of Gikuyu and
Mumbi. I bring you a message from all Kikuyu
musicians. This is a message from God. Uhuru
is the Moses of the Kikuyu nation. He is meant
to move Kikuyus from Egypt to Canaan. Do not
agree to be divided. Let all votes go to him. He
is ours. He is anointed by God, poured oil on.
Raila, there is a call. Go to Mama Ngina’s
house, a king has been born there. Once
there ask where Uhuru is seated and pour oil
on him. Just like Samuel did for David in the
Bible. Stop chasing the wind Agwambo, go to
Icaweri and anoint Uhuru.
You thump your chest about Hague, is Hague
your mother’s? There is a curse from God.
Philistines who do not circumcise cannot lead
Israel. When Abraham stressed God, he was
told to go get cut, even you General of
Migingo, your knife is being sharpened.

Hague Bound – Muigai Wa Njoroge and Muhiko

{youtube}cLAQloQR-_w{/youtube}

Translated snippets:
Question: If it was you who is being pushed
to The Hague what would you do?
Answer: I would call my family and divide up
my property and then ask my mother to pray
for me.
Question: What if you knew that Hague you
are being pushed there by an uncircumcised
man who wants to push you there and take
over your wife and all your wealth? A man
who can do anything to ensure you are in
problems.
Answer: There it is better to die. Things for a
man are not governed by an uncircumcised
man. I would kill him. Its better they increase
my charges.
Question: What would you tell your crying
supporters as you are being shipped to
Hague?
Answer: I would tell them to pray for me and
know I am being persecuted for my love of
my community.
Question: When you get to Hague how you
would ensure the white man does not cheat
you?
Answer: I would ask for proceedings to be
done in Kikuyu.
Question: When on the dock what would you
be thinking of the uncircumcised man who is
the source of your predicament?
Answer: I would ask God to forgive him. I
would also ask that he gets circumcised so
that he matures mentally. I would also ask
Kenyans to be very wary of that man.

Mwaka wa hiti (The year of the hyena) – Demathew

{youtube}Qo8bCqy95uE{/youtube}

Translated and explained snippets:
As Demathew I prophesize and let the stones
hear me if men wont.
It is now the year of the hyena. Who will teach
you and your ears are blocked?
When a man is seated he sees further than a
boy on top of a tree.
You are like a greedy hyena seeing a man
walk and following him hoping that his arm
will drop off. You follow him till he boards the
train and the arm does not drop and you
never eat. (A reference to all that may benefit
from ICC)
Before Jesus was crucified He stood in the
court Judge Pilato and he answered all
questions, Judge Pilato said Jesus is free but
the crowd asked that a thief be freed instead.
(ICC will show Uhuru’s innocence)
Where are you (Peter Kenneth) from? If you
were one of us, you would be pained by the
people burnt in Kiambaa church. My brother
lost his property in Kisumu, how can you tell
us he (Raila) is our community’s friend.
Father (Jomo Kenyatta) I feel sad when I see
your son (Uhuru) being persecuted by men of
ill-will and a woman (Martha Karua) is
carrying their bags.
In-law (Kalonzo) things are not going well for
you now. You are clueless and your matters
are now being discussed by women in the
market. But I still remember how you saved
me (after 2007 elections) when leopards had
attacked me.

Suzanna Owiyo will be recording a track with Oliver Mtukudzi of Zimbabwe and South Africa’s Yvonne Chaka Chaka. The song is being recorded as part of the Plan International’s Because I Am A Girl campaign and it aims to sensitize the public on girl child issues.

Suzanna Owiyo started singing as a child and joined Sally Oyugi as a back-up singer in the late ’90s. She went on perform at some of the biggest stages on the planet, including a Nobel Peace Prize ceremony. Oliver Mtukudzi is one of the hardest working musicians in the world, with over 50 albums released over a 34-year period.

Yvonne Chaka Chaka has been active in the African music scene for over 20 years and is responsible for some of the continent’s most recognizable pop songs, from Thank You Mr. DJ to Umqombothi. Amason Kingi, the Minister for Industrialization launched the campaign in Nairobi.

According to our sources, Kamande wa Kioi will be charged in Court next Tuesday after National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) completed investigations into alleged hate speech in one of his songs.

Kioi was presented at the NCIC offices by an officer from the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) where he recorded a statement and was also made aware of the charges he will be facing.
A commission officer who spoke to Capital FM News on condition of anonymity said that the NCIC had used a translator to know the content of Kioi’s song, ‘Uhuru ni Witu’ (Uhuru is ours).
“We have had him for close to three hours, in line with natural justice we summoned him to appear, he did and he has been informed of the charges against him,” said the officer who refused to disclose the charges to be preferred against the musician.
After he was made aware of the charges he was arrested and taken to the Kilimani police station. He was later released on a cash bail of Sh10,000.
The source said: “Kioi has pleaded with the commission not to recommend his arrest and had wanted to be taken back to Kilimani and be released on bond.”
Kioi who was also accompanied by a man said to be his manager refused to speak to the media who had camped outside the NCIC office in Upper Hill.
Two other musicians John DeMathew and Muigai wa Njoroge also under investigation failed to honour summons to appear and police are said to be looking for them.
The NCIC flagged the songs, ‘Mwaka wa Hiti’ (year of the hyena) by DeMathew, Muigai wa Njoroge’s ‘Hague bound’ and ‘Uhuru ni Witu’ by Kamande wa Kioi after public complaints.
According to the National Cohesion and Integration Act, if the musicians are found guilty of hate speech, they will be liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years or a fine of Sh1 million or both.
“A person who distributes, shows or plays a recording of visual image or provides, produces or directs a programme which involves use of threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour commits an offence if such person intends thereby to stir up ethnic hatred or having regard to all the circumstances, ethnic hatred is likely to be stirred up,” the Act states in part.
A radio station that plays the music would be liable to a fine not exceeding Sh1 million according to the Act.

Kenyan gospel group V.K.P will visit children at the Riruta Shade Orphanage on the 30th of June 2012, together with friends and fellow gospel bands Adawnage and Zidi the Band.

The visit is dubbed ‘SEEDLINGS KWA MA SIBLINGS’ and is meant to set up a kitchen garden for the orphanage to curb the expenses of purchasing vegetables from now and then which proves rather expensive for the home.

To contribute or be part of this mission, it’s highly appreciated to do that through monetary support or the donation of foodstuffs. The forray happens to be open to anyone with a big heart for charity and the kids.

To get in contact with the coordinators, call the numbers 0710910515, 0726271062 or 0723423280.

This is for all you hiphop heads out there who have been getting rather thin off the diet of real ill hiphop!

Coola Gangs general Kapella has just unleashed a monster of a hiphop jam for all of you!

The wait is over! It would seem that these guys aren’t playing around! After dropping a mixtape titled “The College Handbook”, these guys aren’t letting up and Kapella is leading the onslaught!

Kapella’s new track is titled “Sticks and Stones” is just what the doctor ordered and i believe that if they can keep this up, they will soon be the ones representing the country at BET!
Give the track a listen.

First thing’s first, I love the beats on this cypher. Awesome work Suspect Zer’o. It just defines and reflects on hip hop and goes with any kind of flow that a rapper may choose to rap with.

With the number of cyphers currently flooding the social media, your’s has to be really good to actually be noticed, and that is exactly what this is.

The ‘Class in Session Cypher‘ contains rappers, Konkodi, Mindless, Robatoz, Bluntts, Don Gotti, Lyricist, Stage Freak, Binadam, GKV, Elisketch and Ojiji.

You might recognise Elisketch and Ojiji from many freestyle sessions from way back. They may just qualify to be two of the best rappers around.

Check out the video below.

Business man and industrialist Chris Kirubi came out early today fully supporting Kenya’s hip hop group Camp Mulla for their BET nomination.

On his twitter feed this morning, Mr. Kirubi wrote:

@CampMulla My friends,I wish you all the best as you represent Kenya & EastAfrica. I’m a 100% ‪#TeamCampMulla‬ ‪#BETAwards

Attached to the tweet he posted the picture above.

One of Kenya’s favorite bands will once again thrill fans with their awesome performances that usually leave them begging for more.

Sauti Sol will be performing at the Sheebeen Bar, Upperhill, Menengai Road, this Saturday the 30^Th from 7PM till midnight.

Entrance will be free and open to all.

The video for Stella Mwangi’s Bad As I Wanna Be is finally out here. The trailer was released a few days ago and all the signs pointed to a seriously bad-a** video. It doesn’t disappoint. The audio teaser pointed to a high tempo song but the video starts out mellow and slowly eases into the main track.

The video is directed by Christian Bastiansen and mostly features sporting shots, even STL reps the Bulls in the video.  The song was released a few hours ago on iTunes and a couple of other sites for purchase. The teasers for the other videos she shot in the country are yet to be released. The rapper is expected to perform the song live for the first time tonight at a yet-to-be confirmed venue.

Juliani is all set and ready to launch his much anticipated documentary that is set to be launched this Sunday, July 1^St.

The documentary will take us through the life of Juliani as a youth in Dandora, and how he ended up becoming a rapper and joining the Ukoo Flani Hip Hop group. It will also cover the time he spent on a road trip with five lucky super fans.

The launch will take place at the Dandora Stadium, Tom Mboya Grounds, Dandora from 2PM until 5PM. The event will have Fred Omondi as the MC and various hip hop artistes will be performing, including Juliani himself, Wenyeji, Washamba Wenza, Mashifta, Zaka and Agano just to name a few.

Entrance is free and pick-up will be available at the KICC, parking lot area from 1:30PM.

This must be the most hard working gospel artiste so far. Just last week we told you guys about her latest track and how she has released an English version of it, ‘Bless me‘.

Now, she has just done the video of one of her songs that was released quite some time ago and is already one of her fans’ favorite songs. The video for ‘watoto’ is as educational as the lyrics.

Basically, the song talks about the mistreatment that children often face in the hands of their single parent’s spouse and is a real eye opener.

Have a look at the video below and get the lyrics here.

Abbas started as one half of one of the most iconic groups in the Kenyan music industry and the pioneers of contemporary local music, K-South. The artiste has managed to not only be consistent but has found success as a solo artiste, producing some of the most memorable tracks in the Kenyan music space.

Here is a freestyle the rapper did for Ghetto Radio earlier this year. Apart from cementing his credentials as one of Kenya’s finest lyricists, he also calls out the haters and intimidates beef-ers. Check out the freestyle below.

2012 Groove Awards Male Artiste of the Year Eko Dydda is on a (holy) rampage with the highly anticipated video release to the single ‘Beautiful People’.

In an a growing trend by local gospel artistes highlighting issues which affect the society, Beautiful People seeks to address the ugly head of tribalism in Kenya. Eko advises Kenyans to look beyond cultural and ethnic differences and appreciate each other for the ‘beautiful people’ that we are.

Beautifully shot as well by Link Video Global and shot primarily along Kenyatta Avenue, the video will surely be a success for the seasoned artiste. Here’s the video….

Gospel artiste Grace Muna’s video for Hakuna is finally out. The song was released back in 2008 but is only just getting a video. The video is beautiful, with good styling, costuming and props. The half-Argentinian, half-Spaniard singer also stars as Tulele on Citizen TV’s Tahidi High.

The song was produced by R-Kay, who has previously produced Kora Award-winning singers and various other gospel artistes. The video is directed by Enos Olik. Check it out below.

When I first heard the name of this cypher, East Africa Cypher, I expected to see and hear rappers from Uganda, Tanzania and of-course Kenya. I was however surprised to find out that it has six rappers, five of them Ugandan and only one Kenyan. Still, they killed it.

The East Africa Cypher is produced by Batabazi and all the rappers are based in the US. Four of the rappers are based in Boston and the other two, in Dallas (including the Kenyan- Daddy V).

I love the rawness of the video and how they all blend with each other so well. The ladies in this cypher, according to me, are even better than the guys, no offence. They just flow so well and original.

Check out the video right here.

Just got wind that Nameless and D’Banj have been working on a track.

 And the track titled “Take My Heart” is set to be released real soon as they are just now fine-tuning it.

According to Vibe Weekly, the two used their distinct styles to come up with a Naija/Kapuka medley that if their recent jams are anything to go by, i think will be quite the interesting listen.

D’Banj is currently riding his “Oliver Twist” jam all the way to the bank and Nameless who has been musically quiet is known for his rather dusty track “Coming Home” is still getting love and traction.

I for one can’t wait to hear what the two will come up with!

From a list of Kenya’s most creative music videos to the possibility that the region’s first ever BET nominees may not be there to witness the ceremony itself, yesterday was a whirlwind of news in the entertainment industry. Here’s ten things you should know this morning of June 29th 2012:

1. It’s unclear what exactly went down at the American embassy, but news is that Camp Mulla may just have to wait a little longer to get their visas. Problem is the BET Awards might already have taken place by then.

2. Octopizzo is a Kenyan-born and Kenyan-bred artiste who’s defying the norm and doing what he does best…making good music and adding a creative flavour. Check out his latest video.

3. The Gold-rezzo relationship in the Big Brother House has been on the rocks,, so now can we say that it’s finally over for good?

4. It’s sad that as the world over celebrate the loss (or existence) of their great musicians, Kenya is left behind. Why don’t we honour our own so elaborately?

5. Great news for movie lovers from the CBD’s IMAX theatres… students have a flat rate offer that’s here to stay!

6. There’s a bountiful of creative videos in Kenya; we’re listing what we think are the top 5

7. We have a long history of being snubbed or overlooked by international stars who go to neighbouring countries…well the norm continues as this celerated American artiste flies over Kenya

8. Ever imagined what a Raila rap with beats by Dr. DRE would sound? Check it out

9. In a unique turn of events, a Kenyan has been picked as the brand ambassador for megastar Justin Beiber’s new fragrance

10. ‘Viva Riva’, arguably one of the best films out of Africa is set to screen again in Nairobi soon.

Dear M-Tech,

We have neglected the fact that the country you hail from, Nigeria, has been ranked as the most corrupt country in the world several times. Us Kenyans accepted you into our country to do business as managers of our top artists.

We celebrated the ‘Party Don’t Stop’ video, among others, shot by your fellow countryman, Clarence Peters.

We have accepted M-Tech’s messaging service business in our country, despite Nigeria’s reputation for sending scammy mail all over the world.

We have refused to publish negative stories about you, despite getting various calls and e-mails about the working conditions at M-Tech.

So after all that, when you mess up the two biggest moments of Kenya’s brightest shining stars, we are going to be pissed.

Camp Mulla had two extremely big opportunities this year to announce themselves, and Kenya, on the worldwide stage: the opening ceremony of Big Brother Stargame, and the BET Awards.

They missed out on both these huge opportunities due to your company not organising their Visas on time.

If you want to be seen as credible artist management, you’ve got to take care of such basic requirements. Failing at this simple task once may be forgivable, but missing out on Visas TWICE in the space of a month is borderline unforgivable.

In my opinion, the mature thing to do as of now would be to offer a written, public apology to Camp Mulla and all their fans. That way, Kenya can know that their biggest stars are in the hands of professionals.

Over to you, M-Tech.

Signed,

#TeamCampMulla.

Eko Dydda’s next single, Beautiful People, is coming soon. Today, the PAWA 254 Facebook shared the artiste’s behind the scene photos for the video which was shot at their headquarters. The gospel rapper, multiple CHAT and Groove Award winner is currently enjoying airplay for his track, Ghetto. Check out the photos below.

You can check out the rest of the photo’s here.

Have you heard the news about Camp mulla’s dreams of attending the BET Awards being crashed?

If you haven’t, you need to read the story as it was broken by Ghafla here!
So apparently, Camp Mulla ran into a hitch in their visa application and this means that they will not get to be going for the BET awards! They will have to contend with watching the award ceremony from the comforts of their homes like the rest of us.
This is a cruel twist of fate as it directly means that Kenya’s ambassadors to such a prestigious global event will not be flying her flag high! That is too big a blow for the rest of the entertainment industry to bear and indeed for their fans!
This is the one time when i will sing the oh too worn out national song of “tunaomba serekali iingilie kati na ichunguze maneno haya ione kama itaweza kuwasaidia”! Think about it, they would have been hobknobbing with the elites of the industry and those heavy weights would have been able to shine a light on the Kenyan industry. That exposure would have been immensely valuable to our industry as a whole!
If there is anyone who can help sway the American’s decision, you will have done the Kenyan entertainment scene a great favour.
Check out the tweets that cast a light on the whole affair!

Buddha Blaze’s tweet says it all! How truly sad for these young talented Kenyan emcees who had been ramping up their fans’ psyche!

And check this out aswell…

So, Kenya’s most happening group right now, Camp Mulla, the band that made the country proud by getting a BET nomination might not make it to the awards show. The group will now have to be content with knowing their fate, whether they’ve won or not from home.

According to unconfirmed reports, the group couldn’t get their visas processed in time for the ceremony. They then decided to apply for special case Visa, citing, apparently, “major awards show nomination” as the reason. Special case Visas only apply to those traveling for medical reasons, political asylum or political administration appointments (e.g. diplomats). They decided to go for an interview earlier than scheduled to give them more time before the awards. They were apparently told that they could not interview before the scheduled date.

The group can still get Visas but at a later date, which will be after the conclusion of the awards and the winners have been announced. The group consisting of Taio Tripper, Shappaman Kass, K’Cous and Miss Karun were the first East African group to be nominated for a BET Award.

Kenyans do not honour their dearly departed entertainers!

And here i don’t mean radio stations playing one or two random jams to commemorate their departure, here i am talking about a celebration of their lives a la Tupac and Biggie!

Aye, i for one am tired of us treating our national entertainers, people who fly our flag sky high in international musical festivals and concerts being treated like a dark shameful secret once they have departed!

We should have a street and at this point i would even settle for an alley named after E-sir! That is how much he impacted urban culture! And such an alley would anyway have been bestowed with a better name than “Panya lane”!

artists like Wiki Mosh and Dry Gin& Frakas died paupers yet we still dance to their legacies. It is shameful! We nshould acknowledge their contributions to more than urban culture. One way or another they even influenced the words we speak! Wiki Mosh gave us “Atoti” and Krupt should be honoured for putting his hood Nbi West on the map.

Come on people, are we such a thankless bunch? Think about it.

This is my humble opinion!

A short while back, i was fortunate enough to have a sit down with Anto Neosoul.

First of, i was amazed by how humble and grounded this talented artist is. His energy is boundless and that fact comes across from the get go which went a long way towards making me less star-struck and nervous.

Watch the video and experience the man behind the artist!

Tonight at the Alliance Francaise, come witness a celebration of the friendship between Kenya and France. The event begins at 7:00 p.m. There will be A One-Man Show by comedian and emcee, Larry Asego. It will be followed by one of the country’s most electrifying performers, Makadem. Entrance to the event is free.

Makadem is most famously known in Kenya for Mr. Lololova, a song he released back in 1999. His other popular Kenyan track is the song that some found controversial due to its blasphemous nature, Obama Be Thy Name. However, the Ohanglaman is popular abroad and in the alternative Kenyan music scene, thanks to his satirical music and charismatic stage performances.

The Alliance Francaise de Nairobi seeks to foster cultural exchange and sharing by providing French lessons, faciliating and promoting cultural events.
