If there is an artist that I have missed on the Kenyan music scene it’s one beautiful lass known as Phyllis Ng’etich. You might know her from that Taabu<\/em> song or the song that she did with Khaligraph and King Kaka dubbed Ruka<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Also read: Why it\u2019s tough being a female musician in Kenya<\/a><\/p>\n

The first time most of us heard about her was when she was a contestant on Maisha Superstar. To this very day I still remember her rendition of Nameless’ Sinzia<\/em>. It was magical to say the least.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Phy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Phy is such a great vocalist and I would even dare say that she is one of the greatest female vocalists in Kenya, you might think otherwise and it’s totally okay.<\/p>\n

When you listen to her, you just get life instantly. If you were having a bad day, her songs just cheer you up and I am not exaggerating any of this. Ask any die-hard fan of hers.<\/p>\n

And it is partly the reason why I would love to see her back on the music scene. Other than the fact that she is such a great singer, I think she is also too young to take a backseat. I believe she is 26 or so.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Phy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Understandably, she became a mother and that is one of the challenges that comes with being a female artist but I believe her child is now all grown and she should now make a comeback.<\/p>\n

To be honest, her fans like myself, really miss her and if she released a new song today, we would listen to it for the rest of the year. If we can, we will even make it the national anthem. No kidding.<\/p>\n

It is really sad seeing such a talented artist just fade away. Phy, if you’re reading this then it’s about time you made a comeback on the local music scene. Enough said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
