The Time For Change Is Now!

Time is ripe for Kenyan musicians to review their music style if they are to shine in the global market.

Since 2010 Dancehall genre has grown tremendously wakening the whole world to the new style from Caribbean region. The much hyped rivalry between Gullyside and Gaza has seen Dancehall music topping world charts beating long time dominators such as the Rock. The business has not only ripened in the music alone but has also left the street lifestyle transformed. Gone are the days when upcoming artists looked upon the HipHop world for inspiration. Nowadays, the sharp upcoming artists have their eyes on the Dancehall styles with many  being attracted to voicing riddims as compared to own composed beats.

In Kenya the trend has penetrated much with top artists such as Wyre, Nazizi and even Raggamuffin Redsan making huge breakthroughs in the genre. Surely, Kapuka is fading and Dancehall is clearly dominating its position.
