Why Chipukeezy is The Next Big Thing in Stand-Up Comedy
From the days of Nyambane, KJ and Tony in Redykyulas, to Churchill and Eric Omondi with the now defunct Churchill Live to the brand new Churchill Show, in deed Kenyan stand-up comedy has come a long way. However now, there is a new crop of young and talented stand-up comedians who are keen to revolutionize comedy in Kenya.
These new breed of comedians are young and ooze of talent whenever they grab the mic. Among them is Vinnie Chipukeezy. After killing #Kimondio character Chipukeezy star has risen. This guy has been to where all the big names in the Kenyan comedy has been; the likes of Heartstrings Kenya and Hot Seat. This only goes to show how a gem he is in comedy and it won’t be long before he becomes the next ‘Eric Omondi.’
He’s famed for coming up with some of the funniest catchphrases drawing from the “Mwanaume Ni Effort” slogan like Mwanaume ni kusahau/kuzusha/madeni. If you are an ardent Churchill Show fan you’ll cosign that this guy is amazing.
