Lexkiss The Party Animal recently shared his new album Into The Third Floor with Bloga Flani and what ensued was a look into the project that was celebrating a milestone that the singer had reached.

Gengetone burst onto the Kenyan music scene around 2018 like a sonic revolution—raucous, youthful, and unapologetically raw. Acts like Ethic, Sailors, Boondocks Gang, and Ochungulo Family dominated the airwaves with viral anthems that spoke to Nairobi’s street culture, using Sheng, provocative lyrics, and infectious beats. 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. Then came the second, the third, fourth and now anytime I log onto YouTube that is the only album I have on repeat. Wakadinali have always been […]
Gor Mahia’s defeat to Nairobi United in the league cup final yesterday at Ulinzi Sports Complex marks the end of a season where the once-undisputed giants of Kenyan football have failed to lift a single domestic cup.

Events play a vital role in the growth, visibility, and sustainability of Kenyan artists. As Bloga Flani explores, whether it’s a live concert, art exhibition, open mic night, cypher, or community festival, events provide a physical platform where artists connect directly with their audiences. In Kenya's evolving creative economy, where digital reach is important but in-person engagement is still king, events can be a game-changer. First, events offer artists exposure. […]
“Chanda na Pete” isn’t just another hip-hop track — it’s a raw, cinematic journey into the heart of the hood, told through the eyes of two childhood friends whose unbreakable bond is tested by the harsh realities of life. As Bloga Flani describes it after multiple listens, blending classic storytelling rap with Swahili and Sheng-infused lyricism, the track captures the gritty truths many urban youths face — poverty, desperation, and […]

Kenyan music groups have always proved to be a hard area to venture in for any artist as shown by what has been happening on the Kodong Klan Tour. The group has been facing some backlash on how they have been performing and as Bloga Flani writes, it has been difficult to give fans what they paid for.

Bloga Flani observes that this might be the new shift in media but the OG platforms still have an important role to play in the growth of artists in Kenya. Here is a deep dive into the […]
"Maandamano, maandamano, wamepandisha bei ya Ovacado". You have probably heard of that song. It's from one of Kenya's biggest music stars right now, Bien. The song came out at the height of protests in Nairobi and as we gear up for the one year anniversary, Bloga Flani disects what it means to be an artist during these political time.
