Written by Ezekiel Olande on Tuesday, 19 May 2025. Like many Kenyans, I was shaken after reading The Teacher and the System, the recent exposé by Africa Uncensored.

It reflects a larger systemic problem: the lack of a safeguarding culture in our schools. […]

These East African musical forms, though culturally distinct, share a powerful trait: they are communal mirrors, often telling long, winding stories that reflect real-life social dynamics, beefs, praises, and gossip.

Kenyan RnB: The Fastest Rising Genre Since Genge’s Golden Era

  Kenyan RnB is experiencing a powerful resurgence, fast becoming the country’s most promising genre with a dedicated, niche audience driving its momentum. While other genres like Gengetone and Kapuka have made noise, few have matched the structured growth and consistency seen in the RnB movement today.

For a moment, Gengetone was not just music—it was a movement. But by 2021, its flame began to fade. So, what went wrong? Bloga Flani […]

Wakadinali dropped their second installment of the what is turning out to be an album franchise in Victims of Madness. As Bloga Flani, my first listen came with a bit of disappointment especially with the choice of beats and sometimes lack of flow.
