Zion was also discouraged from doing gospel music and told secular has more popularity and money to be made.
But Zion was not shaken by them.
Zion also revealed that radio presenters demanded something from her for her songs to get airplay.
"Nikupushie hii ngoma they demand for something else they want to sleep with you you know, they want to use you and yet won't help you. That's the greatest challenge na wana kuanga ni hit ama nilaale na huyu msee."
Zion opened up to her Bishop father about these challenges. He told her to resist even if she is desperate for her music to get played. Her father warned her that sleeping around for airplay could expose her to diseases like HIV.
Zions advising upcoming female artistes?
"Have your standards and be tough."
Zion pointed out that sex for music is the reason there are few Kenyan female gospel musicians.
"It's those things that discourage. You face those challenges and you wonder because it's your first song. You just give up. They ask how you can be beautiful and sing gospel. But I tell people kuokoka sio kuboeka."
Zion is a woman with tough skin. This helped her when a fiancé dumped her months to their wedding.
"He proposed to me na nika achwa. I cried like a baby it was character development. It hit me so deep. It was a while serious proposal complete with a ring. I was feeling so proud and good. We had dated for like almost 8 months. And it was getting better."
Her mum told her it would end in premium tears. "Aki mum told me and I thought she was bad. She told me that guy was not meant for me."
Why was she dumped?
"One thing he told me he needed a break and time to know who he is."
Zion added about his explanation, "I need time to work on myself I loved him so deeply, nilikuwa nimejitolea kupenda na roho moja, I even used to buy him gifts aki I was so nice I didn't deserve that."
Zion told that wedding plans were in top gear.
