Speaking with Sauti TV at Pulse Awards, stand-up comedian Tom Daktari said that his sounds were getting muted because someone was copyrighting his sounds as his and he was not happy about it.
He stated that he won the award because of TikTok but that it was very sad that his videos were getting muted because someone who was not from Kenya was copyrighting his sound.
"Kwa sababu hii ni juu ya TikTok wacha niwataje sana ni kama wataacha kumute video zangu, wanazimute sana."
Continuing he added, "I think there's someone copyrighting my sounds which is very sad, Sound inakuja ana copyright. Naambiwa that someone who is not from this country copyrighted your sound you cannot use it."
He condemned the person and joked about doing what Kambas did best. "Uyo mtu ashindwe na ikishindikana ntampeleka nyumbani."
The comedian went on to list some of the other challenges that he was facing in the industry.
Interviewer: "What are some of the challenges apart from the muting of the sounds?"
Tom, "I think fake accounts, mostly zenye zinadanganya watu. Anaenda anaongea na watu na sio mimi."
The Sound Master also cautioned his fans who were getting into the fake account traps.
"Lakini pia kama ni wewe unadanganywa, na unaona account si ufinye tu uangalie kama iyo ni Account yangu! Kuna watu walinicomplainia na nikwaambia warudi apo waangalie kama ni mimi."
He stated that those were the main challenges that he was currently facing.
Tom also disclosed that TikTok was the best thing that had happened to him this year as it had the ability to push his content worldwide.
