Always on the notoriety, the litigious gospel artist Willy
Paul is hitting the trends of the Kenyan music market, after the said release
of a song by the name Lamba Nyonyo which translates to lick boobs. What could
the song be up to or rather talking about? The song which took the best of criticism on
social media got itself a lot of views and also a lot of videos on the same.
Many Kenyans expressed their faux pas with Jalang’o who is
poze’s official MC, commenting; “waaaaa… my boss I hereby tender my
resignation… hii imenishinda boss… I hope you understand… meanwhile nalamba
nyonyo.”
Another fan commented, “Am I the only one who has noticed
that Willy Paul is trying to copy the wamlambez?” When listening to the song, my mind was
shaken and couldn’t even believe that what I was hearing was playing right into
my ears. Many saying that it’s embarrassing to the women but still others with
a poles apart mindset danced into the tune making the song trend.
On his side, Willy Paul said that; “I don’t think I should
comment on everything that is said about me. Besides people are entitled to
their opinions, I don’t think you have heard the end of the song, there is
still much to come.
The music can be heard blaring from a distance as I approach the scene it’s the Safaricom jazz festival event that is sponsored by Safaricom that was held at carnivore grounds. It’s a classy subtle and amazing event. It’s the perfect place to catch up with friends and family over amazing food and great music.
So as we get in into
the event my squad is very excited on stage Two-time Grammy award winner Marcus Miller will headline the
Safaricom International Jazz Festival they are playing a number from their album that
talks about Africa and its beauty its infused with amazing melodies from the
trumpet, the crowd is having fun and looks good dressed in Ankara the theme for
this year.
Safaricom being the largest mobile service provider in Kenya always find a way of giving back to the community at the same time it mingles with their customers the tickets are quite affordable with regular tickets going for 1500 Kenyan shillings each and student’s tickets go for 500 Kenyan shillings, this ensures an inclusive nature that Safaricom aims at show casing in fact their slogan is Nawe kila wakati and even better they are to donate the proceedings to the ghetto classics which is a community based program that aims to transform lives of over 650 children in Korogocho, Huruma, Dandora and Mukuru kwa Reuben, as well as students from Farasi Lane Primary School and Muthangari Primary School in Nairobi
The intricacy of the
event is how it’s meant to be a family event they allow food from outside and
encourages a picnic approach where family and friends come together and share a
meal over great music. The most fascinating thing I noticed is how people from
different races, age brackets , gender and economic classes all come together
just for the love of jazz.
My squad is busy dancing
and enjoying the day away, as I take a walk I can see tents some have food
others drinks but what caught my eye was the ma soko tent, ma soko is an mobile
application that was created to make online shopping easy, this is an amazing
way to network with the customers and improve sales.
Safaricom being a
cooperate also aims itself at giving back to the community and what better way
to do so than hold such an event on international jazz day it’s a way of
celebrating culture music, friendship and interactions on not only a local
level but an international level. This s an amazing way to close the global
bridge and unite the world on what better way than a language that is understood
by all and that is the language of music.
The event is great
way to network and build a better society, I would recommend that you should
attend the next event and have an amazing time with friends, family or even a
loved one trust me its value for your money.
