After the interview was published, Dr Mutua took to his social to advocate for the musicians with great zeal.
"One day the musicians of this country will be rich and respected. It hurts to see talented musicians languishing in poverty because of piracy or because their royalties were mismanaged or because they were not given financial literacy, skills and the support to invest their monies well.
It hurts to see people who bring so much joy to our hurts, who inspire us with their creativity and give hope to society, suffer the plight of paupers and have to hold harambees when they fall sick.
It hurts when one sees musicians used as an appendage at key events. They are only called to perform when needed then they are sent backstage.
I have a dream that one day, musicians will sit at the front table because they will be rich, respected and influential and their works will shape the narrative for a better Kenya."
