Natasha Sanaipei Tande recently made headlines following the release of sensual song ‘’Mfalme wa Mapenzi” that was a hot topic for quiet a while.
This is because the video is explicit-by Kenyan standards. The video which features Sanaipei dressed in lingerie, running her hands up her body, up her man’s body, soaking in a bathtub has given a new lease on life on Sana’s music career. And she has been interviewed by various media outlets, her latest, Salon solutions Magazine.

He is probably the funniest man with a Nigerian accent but funny man Obinna Ike Igwe is either pulling a prank on us or he is just simply embracing it.
The guy took a picture with the pyramid symbol which of cause has left us with more questions than answers. Of late he has been upgrading so fast that makes us wonder if there is another source of his wealth apart from his talent, hard work and passion. We understand he is a comedian, has a TV and radio shows as well as events and is about to launch his music career and above all, he also believes so much in God. But is this a coincidence or just a funny pose. See for yourself and you be the judge.
For a while now Chang’aa a.k.a “kill me quick” has been the drink of choice for many needy alcohol drinkers in Kenya. Distilled from grains the drink is very intoxicating and even some brewers have been known to lace it with Methanol and Jet Fuel to make it even more potent .
A problem that the government tried to solve by legalizing the drink and forcing the brewers to bottle it in glass and issue health warnings.
But as you are all aware, Kenyans are cheap and very few people have complied. There are many illegal breweries around and that is why revelers in various Chang’aa dens ran for their dear freedom when Citizen TV’s Naswa guys raided the dens.
Dresses in combat uniform, the unarmed pranksters visited Chang’aa dens and the result was nothing short of comical. The visibly drunk patrons chaotically ran out of the dens looking severely confused, with some acrobatically climbing the roofs to avoid getting caught. The most hilarious one was a woman who was too sloshed to even run.

One of Naizzi’s defining features is her long dreadlocks but the lass is looking to change her look.
She hit up the barber yesterday to get her locks cut off much to the chagrin of her fans.
Thankfully, only one dreadlock was snapped off to make way for her new, quarter shaven look .Check out her new look:
Multi award Winner (One Gospel Awards, South Africa & Groove Awards, Kenya), Daniel Ng’ang’a Heho aka Hey-z da Brand is a born again Christian singer and rapper from a family of five. In 2008, he began his music journey with a dream of where he wishes to be. And he has achieved A LOT!!! “Its all God’s blessings…” he tells me. His determination and vision in life is really inspiring to say the least.
This Kenya’s top Gospel artist is re branding himself and at such, he has released a new hit single that will leave you amazed about this guy’s singing ability!
Music is not his only thing, this guy has a design firm, one that is doing really well I must say. He has designed for big leagues in the country; Daima Yogurt, Sony Ericson, Daddy Owen to mention but a few.
He has started from humble beginnings and he shares his secret with Mr. Majani

Currently, comedy is one of the most lucrative career choices in entertainment. This is because Kenyans really love to laugh.
Even corporates know that the best people to use when it comes to celebrity endorsements are comedians due to the influence they have. One of Kenya’s most influential comedians is without a doubt NTV offside presenter Obinna. When he is not cracking jokes in his Nigerian accent, Obinna is at home chilling with his daughter.
He shared this photo of his last born stunting like her daddy in Versace.
The caption reads ” When it comes to swagging. She got it from daddy. That’s my Lastborn stunting like her daddy. Rocking Versace!! SWAG. #familytime”

It seems Ciku Muiruri did not get an opportunity to hit back at fellow guest invitees during an interview discussion on NTV’s Press Pass with Mark Masai, the topic was radio and the content therein and apparently she could not digest the views of her fellow compatriots and she henceforth took on her Facebook page to offset them.
“Lornah was the proverbial Mother Superior, questioning the ethics of radio presenters. Fred was the disapproving dad and Kiss 100’s Shaffie Weru was treated as the punching bag for all societal ills” Ciku wrote. Ciku said that Lornah and Fred views were interfering unduly with personal choice and that she was not too sure if their reasoning could be reflected on today’s world. They (Lornah and Fred) were expressing their dissatisfaction with the inclusion of sex related content on the media.
She further illustrated that bashing someone whose ratings was through the roof makes little sense to her and that personal feelings were irrelevant to her as only a few people on air actually have control over much. Ciku emphasized that the bottom line to attracting advertisers and gaining a good place to a sizable ratings was by tolerating what the society wants to listen to not what some may consider questionable material.
Here is Ciku’s full argument on facebook:
Nanny state is a term used to express that a government or its policies are overprotective or interfering unduly with personal choice. On Monday this term was ringing through my head as I listened to two views – One from Nation FM’s Lornah Irungu and the second from Citizen FM’s Fred Machoka, which made me think that they believe that Kenyans have no free will. This was on NTV’s Press Pass with Mark Masai. The topic was radio and the content therein. Lornah was the proverbial Mother Superior, questioning the ethics of radio presenters. Fred was the disapproving dad and Kiss 100’s Shaffie Weru was treated as the punching bag for all societal ills. I was also on the panel, my stand – To each his own.
They did agree on one thing – Sex is important and we must discuss it. It seems that how you talk about it was the only issue. Lornah felt a psychologist or someone of that fashion must be in the studio when the topic comes up, Shaffie felt it’s never that serious and Fred thought that bedroom issues should always be left – In the bedroom. Mm. That Fred. He has been on air since 1978. Amazing. Much respect. But this BBC type style of broadcasting that he’d like everyone to emulate, I’m not too sure about.
The BBC or KBC can get away with a lot. If you fail to make money, you will prevail. If you have one listener, you will prevail. If inflation reaches all time highs, you will prevail. If Interest rates go to hell, you will prevail. That’s the cushion that the national broadcaster and taxpayer’s money, gives you. For the rest of us, it’s slightly trickier. We have shareholders. We have to look at the bottom line. How do you attract the advertisers? A good place to start is sizable ratings. If society wants to listen to what some may consider questionable material, should we stop them? Should we be a nanny state? Why can’t radio stations go their individual ways in terms of content and if it works for you, it works, if it doesn’t, it doesn’t?
Bashing someone whose ratings are through the roof makes little sense to me. Personal feelings are irrelevant. After all, few people on air actually have control over much. I’ll give you an example. You call a radio station and ask for a song. The presenter says they will try and fit it in. That’s a lie. They will not play your song because they are not in charge of the music output. Their entire play list is predetermined by a music panel that every so often fills an auditorium with 500 people that fit the station’s target audience. They then ask them if they like individual songs. The majority wins and those are the songs you hear every day.
But radio presenters sound so passionate about the music, don’t they? What a great bunch of actors. That’s radio. It’s theatre. Pure and simple. Everything is researched. Music, content, even your favourite presenter has a Synovate file. They give the public what they want. They hold a mirror to you. So if you hear something that makes you blush, don’t hate the player, hate the game.
I wish Lornah well on her station’s rebranding. I wish Shaffie well on his drive show. I wish Fred another three great decades. They don’t all have to be the same, to each his own. Say no to a nanny state! If you don’t like what you hear, change the dial. If you use public transportation, get out of the matatu or buy headphones. Most cell phones come with them. There’s room for Oprah and there’s room for Jerry Springer. Choose.
Ciku’s Beefs, Zuqka Magazine, Daily Nation, Aug 1st, 2014.
Back before being a socialite was considered a viable source on income; Huddah and Vera Sidika were thick as thieves and often attended many parties together.
Somewhere along the way they fell out and their beef on social media became a source of entertainment and fodder for tabloids and blogs.
They may not like each other very much right now, but they still have one thing in common, a passion for fashion. Months after Vera Sidika unleashed her V S collection; Huddah has also taken a plunge into fashion. But unlike Vera, Huddah has her own line Huddah by Vazzi
The slender socialite posted this message on Instagram:
Super excited and looking forward for “HUDDAH by VAZZI” Thanks to the money team @fablyne and my Manager @mednetteluxuries for putting my ass on focus and thanks to @vazzikenya for making it happen! And to my fans , the wait is almost over! Sometimes you need to take a step back before moving forward! Love you all! Stay blessed!
Rapper and revered lyricists Juliani has gone a niche higher in his album sale as he got the privilege of selling the album to one of his biggest fan the Chief Justice and President of the Supreme Court of Kenya, Dr. Willy Mutunga.
Juliani paid a courtesy visit to the Chief Justice office and had got the opportunity to sale his latest album Exponential Potential to Dr. Willy Mutunga and in return the gospel rapper got the concession of sighing a copy of the Kenyan constitution. The album Exponential Potential was released on June the 5th and contains twelve tracks and is Juliani’s third to be released. One of the biggest challenges in the music industry is the marketing and distribution of an album after the release and it seem Juliani has got some impressive marketing skills.

Cartoon Network partners with the Britam Foundation to improve wildlife conservation
Get ready… set… and pick up your pencils, crayons and paint brushes because Cartoon Network’s Animation Generation competition has officially launched in Nairobi, Kenya. This exciting initiative is making its way to Kenya, jointly brought to Kenyan learners by Cartoon
Network in partnership with the Britam Foundation. The drawing competition promotes the art of illustration and encourages imaginative creativity, challenging over 100 primary schools and over 40 000 learners across Nairobi to explore their artistic talents, while also having lots of fun and encouraging wildlife conservation! Due to the increase in elephant and rhino poaching in Kenya, Cartoon Network and the Britam
Foundation aim to raise awareness about conservation and wildlife protection in Kenya. The theme for the competition will be “Ben 10 Protecting Wildlife” and learners will be challenged to draw a Ben 10 alien with special powers that will be able to protect and save elephants and rhinos in the country.
“We believe that the youth is the present and future of the conservation message and through our initiative we would like to emphasise the importance of wildlife and encourage learners to come up with ideas on how they can be better protected. The Britam Foundation and Cartoon Network are committed to enriching the lives of people and providing sustainable solutions: anti-poaching being one of them,” adds Pierre Branco Vice President Southern Europe and Africa for Turner Broadcasting System.
The competition, which kicked off on Monday 14 July is a unique initiative from Cartoon Network, DStv channel 301, which aims to harness the passion of its viewers and give something back to the local communities. It encourages viewers to unleash their creativity by developing new, fun characters which are limited by nothing but their maker’s imagination, and in doing so they also stand a chance to win amazing prizes. These include fabulous electronic gadgets, exclusive Cartoon Network goodie bags for learners and cash prizes for their schools to improve art facilities.
The initiative will target learners in three age categories: 6-8 years old, 9-11 years old and 12-14 years old and their respective schools. An independent panel of judges, both local and international representatives from Turner Broadcasting, will judge all the entries looking for the most creative, unique and innovative thinking behind the newest alien that will be featured in a Ben 10 promo on television.
The winners in every age group stand a chance to win iPads and the overall winner will have his/her character animated and aired on Cartoon Network, giving the lucky and talented learner the thrill on having his/her artwork brought to life in a promo on television throughout Africa. The school with the most quality entries will receive Ksh 100,000. All entries must be original and as inventive as possible.
Learners should start looking out for the info packs and posters which will soon be delivered to their schools. The closing date for entries is September 19th 2014 and learners will also be able to enter digitally by visiting www.cartoonnetworkafrica.com/agkenya as well as through traditional mail: HDI
Youth Marketeers – Animation Generation Competition Entries – Cathy Flats – Lenana Road – PO Box 11700-00100 – Nairobi. The prize-giving celebrations are set to be very exciting and will be held at each of the winning schools.
Ben 10 Omniverse continues on Cartoon Network with an episode every weekday at midday on DStv channel 301. For more information on the competition and the Ben 10 Omniverse show, visit: www.cartoonnetworkafrica.com

Heartstrings Entertainment under the stewardship of the comedy guru Sammy Mwangi, has been feted and celebrated for opening new doors and innovations. This evening’s wild treat for Luos and Luoslookalikes was another first in Kenya.

If you did not get the chance of witnessing KTN’s ultimate challenge contestants wiggle, do not worry because I have got you covered. You have known her for many things but Kiss 100 presenter Kalekye Mumo can as well shake it too.
Forget the socialites’ drama; you definitely want to watch Kalekye dancing to Sauti Sol’s sura yako song. There is neither viewers’ discretion nor any explicit material, no twerking just shaking it the right way, Kalekye just disclosed what a versatile dancer she is. Dance is a form of therapy and since Kalekye has just revealed she is good at it too, maybe there is no need for her to hit the gym as she can as well break a sweat while she is enjoying the bit.

Enough with the chitchat see for yourself:
‘I’m sorry, but you have got cancer’ these are probably one of the worst life changing words a doctor could ever utter.
And these are words that a lot of people nowadays are receiving with cancer being the leading cause of deaths globally with 7.9 Million lives being lost in as recently as 2009.And the future seems even more bleak with predictions that an estimated 15.5 million people will be diagnosed with cancer and 12 Million of those people will pass away from the scourge in the year 2030. So as you can see surviving cancer is a big deal.
Brenda Wairimu celebrated actress aims at transforming the lives of these cancer survivors through some awesome make overs .The make-overs aimed to give a new lease on life and boost the self esteem of the survivors of the harrowing experience

“On me” hit maker Jay A is one of the few straight artistes to iron his opinion regarding the attempt to implement stiffer penalties to the LGBT society as the public continue to get more agitated following the stigma that is usually associated with homosexuality.
Although he does not entirely support homosexuality on the ground of morals, nor he advocating for their rights, Jay A make it crystal clear that does not support extreme punishment for the homosexuals. “As long as they don’t like put it on public, just let them be” explained Jay A when asked what he thought should be done to the homosexuals.
Here is Jay A’s interview with Ghafla:

If the original socialites came to life and saw the kind of socialites that exist today, they would be seriously scandalized!
Long gone are the days when to be branded a socialite you had to come from a well heeled family, had Ivy League education and was well cultured with a touch of snobbishness .
Nowadays ANYONE and I mean ANYONE can become a socialite .All you need is a big booty, a saucy scandal or two and an insane ability to churn controversy after controversy that will keep people’s eyes on you.
Never have socialites been so omnipresent like in 2013/2014; they are at every party, on our social media timelines and twerking on You Tube or making a mad dash for media attention.
And that is why we asked Sarah Hassan on what she thinks about this popular trend
Sarah Hassan is of the opinion that if is the path they want to follow and have support from family and friends then they can do it .It’s their choice to make concerning which rout they want to take in life.

Late last year, DJ Soxxy took to social media to celebrate his wife and life as a married man. he posted a photo which I will share shortly and swooned over his wife, crediting her with his tremendous transformation. According to him, on the day he and his bride to be officially become man and wife. He caught a serious case of maturity and since then he has done as men do after discarding his youthful ways.
Well, the couple has been blessed by God with a bouncing baby girl. Congratiulations are in order once more. And keep it Ghafla for more as more information comes up.
Rufftone bid adieu to the bachelor’s life when he got married to the love of his life and fellow musician Krystal.

Sometimes, fact is stranger than fiction.
Jastorina was laid to rest at her ancestral home in Muranga and while people thought this would be a somber ceremony for a departed mother, sister and friend, this was not the case.
This is one account of what unfolded:
There was drama in Kagongo village of Mathioya, Murang’a County, during the burials of actress Nancy Nyambura a.k.a Jastorina and her mother Lucy Wangui as family members blocked artistes from taking over the Tuesday ceremony.
Police officers deployed to provide security fired in the air to avert a fight between the two sides. The artistes from Nairobi had attempted to take control of the ceremony from a local clergyman. The actress’s sister, Carol Nduta and brother Sammy Njoroge caused a stir when they stood by her grave and vowed not to allow the artistes to conduct the ceremony before the police fired into the air and dispersed the crowd. Ms Nduta accused the artistes of being disorderly and failing to help the family plan for the two burials. “We cannot allow this to happen because you have come here drunk, with intentions to steal the show,” shouted Nduta.
The artistes had allegedly stormed a room where Nyambura’s remains were being kept awaiting the start of the ceremony, forcing the family to call for order.
Led by the emcee, James Njaria, the family expressed anger over the artistes’ behaviour and urged them to tone it down. The artistes demanded the right to bury their colleague in their own style, which was rejected by the family. The artistes also accused Nyambura’s family of hiring thugs to frustrate their efforts to give their colleague a decent send-off. Nyambura died at the Kenyatta National Hospital where she had been admitted with meningitis, just hours after being crowned the Best Performing Artiste in a TV Comedy at the Kalasha Awards last month.

It’s not always a story about nudies and scandals when Pendo is involved. And this is one of those rare instances -yes, even I had to admit that this is a rarity. But we celebrate our celebrities here at Ghafla so let’s get into it. And it would seem Pendo has decided that education is key in every individual’s life.

Tusker Project Fame season six golden duo Amos and Jose have released a debut single dubbed “smile”, East Africa’s latest and youngest afro pop act.
Despite not grabbing gold in the realty show, Amos and Josh have been brewing something up and after the long pleasant aroma finally the delicacy is served, the pair has released their new song. “Smile” is a groovy African love song that boasts the duo’s story-telling lyricism, harmonious vocals and synchrony.
Amos & Josh are really excited and glad to present to East Africa and their fans, the first of their recordings. They mesmerized their fans on the reality show with a superb display of their talent; it will be nice to see if they still got the charm to move the crowd with their new single.

Kenyans have an unusual ability for naming things; they name their churches ‘Finger Of God’ and ‘The Glory Is Here Nor There Church Of Yahweh ’ and they name their shops ‘Mama G-Spot Shop’ or some and their buildings ‘Rising Cocks House’ .
It’s really hard to walk around the country and not be baffled but at the same time amused by the names Kenyan come up with.
Now there is church on Valley Arcade Area whose name was inspired by the ‘Transformer’s Movie’ and goes by the name ‘Transformer’s Chapel’ and even uses the movie’s font. While the name may not be as eye-brow raising as others that we have heard in the past it’s defiantly something worth checking out:

Late last year, Nairobi senator tried to pull the wool over Kenyans’ eyes on social media, and Kenyans would have none of it.
Sonko photo shopped his face over Mohammed Ali’s face on a photo he had taken a while back with Nelson Mandela. Sonko then shared the photo on Facebook claiming he had also shared a moment with Nelson Mandela.
Kenyan on Twitter mercilessly mocked Sonko’s Photoshop fail with even the British media getting in on the action.And soon Sonko was photo shopped into every news-worthy picture in Kenya from Lupita’s Oscar Win to Sanaipei Tande’s bathtub.
Now he is making an appearance in the Uhuru-Obama photo looking quite flamboyant in an orange suit
We all fall off at some point. Beckham fell off, I fell off -when I once wore a female sweater to the office. I have never lived it down. That said, I must reiterate that everyone slips up. And this article is a fashion cop submission for one of the most stylish celebrities around. He was part of Camp Mulla both as a rapper and as a producer.
Aye, I am talking about Kus Ma who goies by the government name of Marcus Kibukosya. Lad is quite the fashion luminary. He managed to convince Kenyan lads that it’s useless to turn up at events looking like something the cat dragged in.
Sadly, he fell for the same trap.
Or perhaps this is a generational thing. Maybe, just maybe, this is one of those things mid-twenty lads will not appreciate but this is what is taking over the younger lot. If that’s the case then I cry!
What in heavens sweet name is this:
What? Is the “chokora” look what’s hot? If that’s the case I must ask, “Where they do that at?”
Gold watch, chokora wardrobe. But he will definitely be back to his stylish ways. Perhaps we just caught him when he wasn’t ready because truth be told, this lad is Kenya’s Kanye both in production and fashion sense.
Boss has been reinventing himself for a while now and I have to say that the rebranding is working going by the number of female fans who are taking notice. lad was recently styling and coolin’ in suits but now he’s gone for the biker outlook and I have to say that the main accessory is just the one!
I doubt he can ride around in that waistcoat though! The wind resistance would do too much damage -yes, I know a thing or two about bikes. What can I say, I am a bike fanboy.
After numerous provocative twerk videos that have been uploaded by the Kenyan socialites, Huddah Monroe has finally decided to change the monotonous twerks and maybe setting a up new trend on belly dancing.
The so called socialites have been hitting the internet with erotic twerks that have gained them hate and love almost on an equal basis. After finally ending her catfight with Vera Sidika, Huddah seem to have embarked on a different mission and this time round a new dance. She uploaded a new video on Instagram and she is quite swaying her hips.
Catch up the video on this link:
Orange is definitely Dutch, Haiwi Haiwi hit maker Wendy Kimani (featuring Bienaime of Sauti Sol) has finally got married to her Dutch fiancée Marvin Onderwater in a traditional ceremony.

Kenyans are no longer shy about action and the glamour that is associated with guns. Action movies are now becoming the norm and I have the movie you should be waiting on! It boasts all the action set to keep you glued to the screen. Even the poster is amazing:
Strata is a new feature film on love, crime, vengeance and death premieres in Nairobi on August 22, 2014. The 90-minute drama titled STRATA that shall screen for three days at Nairobi’s Alliance Francaise auditorium is directed and produced by Cajetan Boy of Et Cetera Productions. The fictional film on urban crime tells the story of a woman on a mission to make her fiancé’s killers pay for their crime. But before then, one may have to decide for oneself when a murderer is both the antagonist and the protagonist.
Though the film was completed in 2012 and should have been released in December 2013, this is the first time it is being shown to the public in Kenya.
Taking up the lead male role is Gilbert Lukalia, an experienced stage and screen actor whose film credits include The First Grader and Lost in Africa.
Taking up the lead female role is Veronica Waceke and Sabina Stadler.

You may remember him from the Calif Records heydays. He was the darkskinned soulful brother in the outfit (not to be confused with Flexx what with his loud haircuts). He was the crooner behind the track “Ukimwona” with Lady S -may her soul rest in eternal peace. He was the singer behind the hit song “Twende Ndani” and “Morale” before he decamped to found his own studio.
Anyway, long story short, after giving us these hits, he took one long hiatus.
