Singer Denno, famously known for the hit song 'Mbona' has been stressed over career challenges.

Faith Naliaka, the wife of Denno says his music not getting much airplay has left him depressed.

This is because of the great time and effort that goes into writing the songs.

Initially, Denno was signed by EMB records which is owned by Bahati before the two went their separate ways.

Speaking during an interview with Chris Baraka, Faith says lack of finances has been a challenge to Denno's career.

"From the time they terminated the contract music has been challenging because production is expensive. He has however been busy making music but the songs have not been produced.

He is a very good songwriter but most of the time he is stressed because his music does not sell."

Faith says when Denno is stressed the entire family is affected.

"If you are in a marriage and your partner is stressed we are all affected. When he does solo projects they don't sell but when he does collabos they fly.  I think this is because People feel like he should be helped by other artists so that he can make it. There are times he has almost given up."

Denno's wife says he shouldn't give up as God sometimes comes when we least expect.
