So as we all know and I mean all coz even kids know the trending song now is Utawezana and the young lovely lady from tik tok. I was thinking about back in the day, if you could trend for dancing to a song about how you would give a man sex. And then make some gyrating moves which are simulating sex. My friend after your first appearance on TV ungepelekwa approved school, unyolewe nywele ama upelekwe ocha. But you could not dare do such a thing when you are still in college depending on your Paris. This Nairobi would have become too small for you and your parents to coexist.
Currently if you go to the videos trending in Kenya most of them are about sex. There is Timmy Tdat, Otile Brown, Femi One and Mejha Okonkwo, Rayvanny not about sex but with the way the video vixen wa dera are gyrating it might as well be. And of course Khali graph Jones I don’t know what the song is about but it looks like it’s something sexual. Somebody like Timmy Tdat there’s no talent he has other than bringing naked and nakeder women and being explicit. I’m not sure if I’ve seen Willy Possessed.
Its only Nyashinski who is abit creative to have different content. I know that sex sells but kusema kweli at this rate, we will only be having songs about sex ama? Is it that there’s nothing left to sing about ama the only thing Kenyans want to hear about is sex. Diamond songs all about sex, Wasafi the same.
I know sex is very important bcz that’s how we got here but when it gets to a point where out of an MP3 for Bongo you can only listen to 2 or 3 songs because the rest are just too vulgar. It’s too much. I used to be a fan of Bango and Bongo they used to sing about love, nowadays there’s no time for preliminaries ati ooo nakupenda, niko kwa jam nakuja, a, b, c, d. Nowadays straight to bed, no foreplay, no chaser.
Yaani I don’t know where we are headed as a society. And the more sex saturated we become as a society, the more sex is losing meaning. Too much of anything leads to desensitization. This over exposure to sexual content is systematically desensitizing society. If the recent sex tape is anything to go by the sex therapist and her partners performed dismally bcz human psychology relishes that which it is deprived of or at least have a limited amount of. When saturation kicks in it kills everything.
I saw an article that many even young people are having erectile dysfunction. This I’m sure is bcz system overwhelmed by the erotic sensory input. In many things in life that people indulge in less ends up becoming more.
We need to go back to modesty and talent bcz it does not take any talent to hijack us with a crazy video bcz your content is nil. So you just unleash different videos with more and more explicit material.
As humans we are multifaceted we need variety like how it used to be, not just one track kind of entertainment to the point that it becomes a nuisance. Let’s be creative like Nyashinski not just take the easiest way by over sexual using the songs and videos produced.
As for so called sexologists akina Maurice Matheka and Kenyan Ssenga and Gertrude Mungai. I think sex is a natural instinct which we can learn on our own without your sexpertise and even if it’s learning about it, we don’t need it on TV or on youtube let those people who are interested have closed groups arrangement so that the rest of us who hatutaki mambo mingi can be spared of all this hullabaloo.
Those who are unleashing nudes or sex tapes. If you want a career in porn there are places meant for that let’s not mainstream it coz like now when kids are around they may get exposed to it by mistake on social media.
We need to bring back modesty and discretion as a society. A human being is a very multifaceted being let’s not minimize ourselves to one aspect of our being.
Moderation, modesty and being discrete ni muhimu sana especially at a time like this when we are crying to God day and night to help us overcome Corona.
Let us not pervert sex into some thing to be taken lightly, thought of and sang about all the time. Good things can become toxic when they are not respected and reserved for the appropriate time and place. Ni hayo tuu wangwana.
