Is This A Sign Of New Things To Come From MCSK

Posted on March 7, 2014April 10, 2017 by Liatema Munyu

There are a lot of new things coming from MCSK this year and the copyrights body seems to have been out of the blocks running faster than any other rights body in the country.

Here is a little glimpse of things as they stand from the MCSK end;

A tour round the country bringing in the all the major players in the regional broadcast section that with it brings in a huge cash trove for royalty.

A new campaign set to end rampant piracy and boost efforts in internet penetration

A new way to see the rural artistes equally compensated as their urban based counterparts.

We are all hoping this is maintained and seeing that the tug of wars and cat and mouse like wars with broadcasting stations are over, then this is certainly the way to go.

Posted on March 7, 2014 by Sue Watiri

They say that there is no such thing as bad publicity and Nigerian pop singer Dencia is literally raking in the millions and not forgetting major publicity following her attack on Lupita.

The attack was fuelled by Lupita’s speech during the annual Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon hosted by Essence. In the speech she spoke of a letter sent by a little girl who said that Lupita’s in Hollywood saved her from using Dencia’s Whitenicious bleaching cream.

Anyhow Dencia before her attack on Lupita was just a little known pop star but now she is getting mentions on social media ,blogs and even business publications, In fact she says that she is scheduled to have interviews with media conglomerates such as BBC and CNN

Nazizi Finally Opens Up About ‘Gold-Digging’ Allegations Surrounding Her Divorce

Posted on March 7, 2014 by Sue Watiri

After getting married to Vini Hamsa Leopold in 2008 at a simple and hush-hush wedding at a Kadhi court, Nazizi and her husband have called it quits.

This was after a one and a half year deliberation to which both parties decided that it was best to go their separate ways. They would take care of their child together and there was no bad blood between the two. The divorce papers were already in the process of being filed and soon, Nazizi would be a free bird

She went ahead to refute a rumor that she had split with the husband so that she could get half of wealth as he was an affluent tycoon from the coast. In fact her husband was neither a tycoon nor from the coast adding that” What is his is his and what is mine is mine”

Vera Sidika Pregnant? Check Out Her Baby Bump Here (PHOTO)

Posted on March 7, 2014 by Nwasante Khasiani (Writer)

Vera Sidika has been showing off her perfect bikini body but I came across quite the shocking find, a picture of a pregnant Vera Sidika. And I know that mother hood is something special and ordained but I found myself ruing the day she decided to let go of what my teammate Fox calls a “fap-material” body.

but I guess lass musty do whatever makles her happy but while I doubt that she is indeed preggers -I honestly smell a troll somewhere here- but who am I but a messenger. And to think that some lad approached Uncle Chim Tuna asking to sell to him these pictures. No lad, I am Uncle Chim Tuna, I get everything I want. And I don’t always have to pay either.

Nice shot though.

Drama Follows This Gospel Musician

Posted on March 6, 2014April 10, 2017 by Sheila Kanja

Ringtone’s new video has had drama following it since the day he began shooting it. He did not know what would happen causing so much drama by the time it was done.

First there was the attempted run over by a motorist yet to be known, while shooting the video outside the Macmillan Library. In which Ringtone suffered a mini-scare after the rogue driver sped off.

After all that hustle, one would think all would be rosy that however, was not the case. The video was put up on YouTube and later pulled down by YouTube for ‘pornographic’ content.

YouTube then issued an apology to Ringtone weeks later then put up the video.

There is hardly any porn content in this video, but please, be your own judge.

His fans can watch the video below.

While some celebrities enjoy the perks of stardom including the perpetual love of their fans and respect from their closeted enemies, others such as Ian Mugoya are handed the short end of the stick.

People just seem to work themselves into a bubbling unadulterated rage at the mere mention of Ian Mugoya. He is like the Justin Beiber of Kenya, hated for no apparent reason. I personally prefer to get to know someone first before I come to a conclusion about them.

Anyhow someone sent me this video of Ian Mugoya, goofing around showing a fun side of him, an approachable side. Check it out here. Ladies you can thank me later

Kenyan Lawmakers Now Plan To Ban Homosexuality. Rights Of Joji Baro ,Binyavanga And Other Gays In Trouble

Posted on March 6, 2014 by Sue Watiri

The Swahili Sages once said “Ukiona mwenzako anyolewa kichwa chako kitie maji” and true to this statement gay people might not be safe anymore in Kenya after Uganda banned homosexuality.

According to Voice of Africa one member of parliament Irungu Kang’ata is gearing up to introduce a motion to combat homosexuality.

If this law comes into force there will be tougher penalties than the existing 14 year sentence for homosexual acts. The 14 year sentence law still has loopholes. This is due to the fact that it has to be proven that indeed the two consenting sexual parties were involved in the act, and to prove this one has to intrude into their privacy .This is against Article 31of the constitution that provides every person with privacy. In addition the constitution protects all Kenyan people from discrimination regardless of sexual orientation, gender or religion.

If Irungu and his team of homophobes (with all due respect) manage to pull this off, the very rights of Joji Baro, Binyavanga Wainaina and other gay people will be in jeopardy. It’s of my opinion that banning or restricting homosexuality is pure oppression. I think if laws are being made it should be laws to build this country, not pulling us back to the dark pre-independent days where freedom was just but a pipe dream.

I think Kenya has way bigger problems than who is banging who. People are dying in Turkana while the disabled are crawling on the streets of Nairobi because they cannot afford wheelchairs, children are surviving on one meal a day while others are bedridden because they cannot afford medication .Take a walk in the streets of Nairobi and you will see bigger issues that need to be solved.

What’s the difference between the law makers and the colonialists? Shoving your moral opinion down our throats and forcing us to toe the line in accordance to what is right to you is equal to tyranny.

Dedan Kimathi

Dedan Kimathi did not lose his life or get jailed so that heterosexuals can achieve freedom; freedom was for all of us regardless of tribe, religion, sexual orientation, age and economic status. Banning the rights of specific people is like spitting on the graves of those who fought for our freedom!

I pray that a day will not come where an innocent Kenyan will be afraid to be who they are ,walking on the street with their lover but cannot hold hands or show affection because they are afraid of being jailed or lynched. I believe that as Kenyans and you the lawmakers should fight for the rights of everyone, regardless of gender sex age or economic status.

Meet The Amazing Deaf Rapper Who Raps Better Than Most Rappers (VIDEO)

Posted on March 6, 2014 by Sue Watiri

If you have received a success card with what we called ‘melody’, you probably removed the battery in a fit of rage to get rid of the ‘maddening noise’. Well that maddening, frustrating noise was the works of one of the greatest musicians ever, Beethoven.

It’s rather fateful not to forget tragic, that the success card industry had to massacre one of the greatest works ever written and shove it into a success card but that money had to be made right? Anyhow, Beethoven maestro composer and musician who created some of the greatest music pieces ever was actually deaf.

Starting next month you will not illegally acquire any local musician’s work. Well that is if you heed, and you should, MCSK’s latest campaign.

The campaign is dubbed ‘USIKATSIE NGOMA/PLEASE DON’T STOP THE MUSIC will be launched this Friday February 28^th in Mombasa.

In a nut shell, the campaign which aims to revolutionize how we download local music aims to achieve the following, one keep the music cycle going by getting you to buy all music and thus allow the artiste be able to make more music, two, to also remind you of your patriotic duty to support all Kenyan artistes by at least not illegally getting their music.

Lastly, and a noble effort at that, through this campaign MCSK seeks to contribute to internet penetration and use in the country especially in the rural areas guiding the users from the baby steps through the mastery of how to get content online.

There you have it, Usikasie Ngoma, be the guy that allows his or her artists do more music
