Where have you been? I’ve been laying low, working on myself and getting my finances in order. I’ve been involved in a few video productions, regaining my mojo because, you know, I’m more of an actor and entertainer. So yeah, I’ve been focusing on me.
What do you think of Arbantone? Arbantone is a vibe, full of energy. No hate, but let’s not let it decline like gengetone. We need to be more vibrant and exposed.
Remember, KAJAIRO used to do arbantone. I’ve also done it passionately. What’s the way forward? People should be paid well to live well because being broke kills our music. Artists deserve to be paid fairly.
Who would you like to collaborate with? Honestly, if we vibe, I’m down for it as long as there is a connection.
What did you think of Otile's statement that Kenya has no international artists? For real, we have international artists, but we don’t have SUPERSTARS. The meaning of a superstar is someone who owns Lambos and Ferraris, who rolls in entourages and fleets of cars, who shops extravagantly.
We don’t have those things because the revenue from music isn’t enough. We need to be serious about music in terms of artists getting paid and investing to double their money, so yeah, that’s my take.
