In 2002 there was only one anthem: WHO CAN BWOGO ME?
That and “Die another day” by madona. Maina Kageni alikuwa anacheza hizo mbili in rotation ni kama amelipwa.
Then there was everything E-sir had done. Tatuu were huge… wooi wooi. I remember Prezo talking about how he was going to be the biggest thing Kenya has ever seen or heard. ‘Lookin’ for my name naitwa Jackson, toka Kenya hadi Bongo naleta action…’
And then there was a young man called Curtis Jackson who was about to unleash what could be considered the greatest rap album ever.
Na east Africa tv ndio ilikuwa imeanza with hundreds of Tanzanian videos. Mr. Blue and his blue clothes and fake dance moves, Mr. Nice and his lady dancers with fat tummies, the lady of chambua kama karanga. And there used to be a kbc owned channel called Metro TV that broadcasted only three movies. Insyder magazine was the magazine to have. Na kila mtu alikuwa na tape kwa uso kama Nelly na headband ya white kwa kichwa.
Umesahau mona lisa by Vultures na Ninanoki by Nameless and Amani. Lakini Googz and Vinnie Banton received a lot of airplay that year with “Wasee Nimetoka Githurai”. E-Sir became very popular after his death in 2003.
Hapo 90s kulikuwa na show inaitwa Burudani hosted by juma mdudu. musicians wa coast walikuwa wanakuja kulaunch cassette zao hapo. then there was mizizi.
Alafu kila jioni on ktn around 5.30 jimmy gathu alikuwa na music show. On Monday it was Rap 'em for hip hop, Tuesday was kass kass for lingala, Wednesday was Rastrut I think that was for reggae raggah akina shaba etc.
Thursday was Jam a delic sijui ilikuwa ya nini.Rhythmix on Friday for rnb. and before that he had a show called teen summit. na watu walikuwa wanahepa church on Sunday wakaone Michael Jordan on NBA highlights KBC.
