Society has changed. The youth and teenagers are more interested in dancing and other forms of having fun. Their dress code has changed too. In Kenya, things are getting out of hand.
I have no beef with people who love riddim and dancehall, I am a fan too. Achana na Odi dance, hiyo inakaa ya wachawi, my kejani moves could one day earn me a Guinness world record.
What bothers me is what they are broadcasting on live television. Recently there was nothing to do in the house so I planted my self on the sofa and switched on Citizen Tv. Walla! Rave had started
The mood in the living room changed when some girls started bubbling and twerking on the stage. My seniors were around, it was quite embarrassing. I felt like the guy who bought a movie DVD from the streets and called his family to watch only to find out that it was a porn clip.
At this rate, the broadcasting might shift to clubs. The media is going rogue and no one is talking. Some parents may say let them have fun, not knowing that they are parading their daughters for media sponsors. One example, watch the pace of the chic on the stage with Bahati, in this clip ([SIZE=4]I guess her name is Kui). Ain’t she dry-fry?[/SIZE]
meffi comments. wait until you both grow up and get daughters who start dressing and twerking in front of you and you find it acceptable coz you are liberals. watakamuliwa na akina village chokosh uwesmakei na mtoi wake clichy alafu picha za coomer zao ziwekwe pale telekram usafishe mecho nazo mkisema swafi. [SIZE=1]meanwhile, msito uwesmakei si uniongeze huko telekram tafasali? sande sana[/SIZE]
They are advertising Captain Morgans rum (their main sponsor) on a kids show.
To add insult to injury their other sponsor is a condom brand. ‘After twerking ingieni hapo mmalizane.’
And the clincher, ma pervert east Africa hawalali waone this young meat. It’s only a matter of time tujulishwe where exactly they’re dropped off in town after the recording. And those kids generally look like they come from the poorer side of Nairobi. So there is definitely some exploitation going on there. Kids who won’t bother asking for any payment for dancing through a 4 or 5 hour recording in the dead of a cold night while SK Macharia pockets all the humongous advertising fees. And I highly doubt that they’re given a meal afterwards.
Things if not times are changing and we need to learn how to cope and deal with it without bringing about a ‘butterfly effect’.
Now back in our days mambo ilikua mbaya coz we used to go for jamsessions smoke drink and brandish illegally acquired guns just for brovado and showmanahip. Now we dont have the jamsessions anymore and the good thing is that dancing is becoming more of a fulltime job sku zetu we only danced for fun
