You see before an artist can become a full-fledged star, he or she has to have their homegrown support network. Before Otile Brown can really conquer Africa, he has to first get the unwavering support of Kenyans. And I do not care what anyone says, Otile Brown is one of the leading lights interms of talent in Kenya. And he has been amassing a following but in truth, Kenyans are ashamed to publicly declare their support of their own and this is problematic.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000\"><a style=\"color: #008000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/unafanya-handshake-fans-react-to-octopizzos-congratulatory-message-to-khaligraph-jones\/\">\u201cUnafanya handshake?\u201d Fans react to Octopizzo\u2019s congratulatory message to Khaligraph Jones<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>And while everyone wants to take aim at Octopizzo for being a hypocrite for saying this while he is still beefing with Khaligraph Jones, I would argue that he is one but for a different reason altogether.

Whenever Octopizzo was asked to support a local artist, he would refuse to but in a coy manner, never mind that he didn&#8217;t even have a project he was dropping. And Kenyans picked up on his energy. As a result, they refuse to have him be the one to champion the cause of Kenyan artists.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000\"><a style=\"color: #008000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/octopizzo-made-a-fool-of-himself-by-supporting-mcsk\/\">Octopizzo made a fool of himself by supporting MCSK<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It is true, we are a garbage tier fandom and fanbase but it should not be one who routinely refused to build up with other fellow, compatriot artists telling us where we have messed up. It should be someone who is impartial about dolling out the barbs and bouquets like me. Infact, it should always be me and not Octopizzo. Atleast my criticism is positive and constructive.
