Nanjira: Social media was key to our success
If you want to listen to Afro pop music, then this is the right band. Ma3 band
has always been entertaining us with their well crafted songs. We talked to their lead singer and she had this to say about the band.
Ghafla: Who came up with the idea of Ma3 Band
Nanjira: The Ma3 is Tim Rimbui’s aka the innovators love, baby brain child. It has been in existence for over two years.
Ghafla: Why chose a band rather than going solo
Nanjira: Because am shy. I like the concept of a band because it’s putting the elements of real music together in one place. It’s not so much about one person. Well to me, Ma3 was the perfect band for me.
Ghafla: Why an afro-pop band
Nanjira: Afro-pop has been dubbed the new sound of Africa. We grew listening to pop music but afro has that unique element of Africa i.e. the drums, the dancing and the stars.
Ghafla: What’s the reason for Ma3 band getting international recognition than here at home
Nanjira: It’s because of using the social media that helped us get air play on BBC and Channel O.
Ghafla: Last word from Nanjira
Nanjira: Life is beautiful here in Kenya, am also thankful for the support we get.
If you want to see the Ma3 band in action, then the place to be is at Michael Joseph Center, Safaricom house on 29th March.
