The XYZ Show Changed Kenya. It Was Never Built to Make Money.

By Ronny Choge Do you remember the XYZ Show? The one that premiered on Kenyan TV screens and served us political satire in concentrated humor, week after week? For those who lived through it, the latex puppets and their razor-sharp send-ups of the political class weren't just entertainment — they were a cultural fixture, arriving well ahead of their time. So when the show quietly went out of production, it […]

Crowds Don’t Vote: The Numbers Behind Sifuna’s Presidential Risk

By Ronny Choge There's no denying it — Edwin Sifuna draws a crowd. From Taita Taveta to Trans Nzoia, the Linda Mwananchi caravan has turned quiet market towns into rally grounds, and the man once known mainly as ODM's sharpest television voice is now being spoken of as a possible flagbearer, a possible running mate, a possible kingmaker — depending on which room you're standing in. Luhya elders have symbolically […]

On paper, this was a simple mini-poll. A seat fell vacant after the death of MP David Kiaraho in March, and the constituency needed a new representative. In […]

Nearly Two Decades Later, Ken Koast Brings ‘Baridi Kali’ to Life

Some songs are created in a day. Others take years to find their moment. For Kenyan lyricist Ken Koast, Baridi Kali belongs to the latter. The heartfelt Hip-Hop love ballad arrives with a story nearly two decades in the making, combining nostalgic production, honest songwriting, and a seamless collaboration between artists from Kenya's Coast and Nairobi. Inspired by both the biting chill of Kenya's July cold season and the emotional […]
