Written by Edwin Agesa on Tuesday, 9 December 2025. Three weeks since its release, The Art of Gengetone by Joefes continues to ripple across the Kenyan music scene, an ambitious 22-track statement from one of Gengetone's most consistent contributors. Working under Black Market Records and still an active member of the celebrated trio Mbuzi Gang, Joefes uses this album not just as a showcase of sound, but as a declaration: Gengetone is […]
Written by Edwin Agesa on Monday, 8 December 2025. Every year, Spotify Wrapped arrives like a cultural holiday, screenshots everywhere, heated debates, and that one friend who insists their music taste is superior. But this year in Kenya, the conversation has taken a different turn. As timelines fill with people's top artists and top songs, many Kenyans have noticed a glaring absence: very few Kenyan musicians are showing up on these […]
Sunday, December 7, 2025 — the grand old rivalry of Kenyan football once again lit up Nyayo National Stadium, as AFC Leopards stunned arch-rivals and hosts, Gor Mahia, by the narrowest but most telling of margins: 1–0. From the kick-off, the stakes were obvious. This was the 98th chapter in a storied derby, a match long postponed because of stadium availability issues and competition prep for international tournaments. Gor Mahia, […]

Written by Edwin Agesa on Monday, 28 November 2025. In any thriving music ecosystem, DJs and artists operate like two sides of the same coin. One creates the sound, the other amplifies it. In Kenya, however, this relationship has often felt disconnected, with DJs leaning heavily toward foreign music, especially South African, Nigerian, and American hits, while local artists struggle to get consistent visibility on the decks. The result is […]
