We Must Do More to Protect Our Children: Why Kenya Needs a National Safeguarding Framework

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 was a harrowing account of repeated abuse, institutional silence, and systemic failure at one of Kenya’s most well-known schools. But that story is not an isolated case. It reflects a larger systemic problem: the lack of a safeguarding culture in our schools. As a trustee of an international organization that works with […]

Currently he is the most streamed Kenyan artist showing dust to the biggest names in the game. The rapper is leading the likes of Bien and others who are following closely behind him.

Why Taarab, Ohangla & Luhya Music Feel So Familiar — A Deep Dive by Bloga Flani

When you take a closer listen to genres like Taarab, Ohangla, and traditional Luhya music, something clicks — a familiar rhythm, a storytelling style that feels intentional, and a habit of naming names unapologetically. 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. Let’s start with Taarab, deeply rooted in the Swahili coast. Artists like Isha Mashauzi or the […]

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. This evolution bears resemblance to the Genge wave of the early 2000s — but this time, the spotlight is on emotional depth, vocal excellence, and clean production. A new crop of Kenyan RnB […]

What Went Wrong with Gengetone – And How Arbantone Took a Different Path

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 explores this sudden change. One of Gengetone’s biggest downfalls was […]

Album Review: Wakadinali – Victims of Madness 2.0 Aging Like Fine Wine

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 raw in their delivery and Victims of Madness 2 cements […]

Why Gor Mahia’s Cup Losses Signal a Healthy Shift in Kenyan Football

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. According to Bloga Flani, for many fans, this might sting — after all, Gor Mahia is not just a club; it’s a symbol of consistency, dominance, and history. But from a broader perspective, especially for the health and competitiveness of the Kenyan Premier […]
