Nonini blasts Kenyan artists silent during play Kenyan music debate: They are a bunch of sellouts 

Veteran rapper Nonini has blasted Kenyan musicians who have opted to stay silent in the ongoing “Play Kenyan Music debate” because they are afraid of their friends who work in the media.

Kenyans entertainers have been arguing about the state of the industry and how presenters are not helping local artists. The heated debated has lasted a week now as artists and presenters look for a lasting solution.

We are taking note

Nonini believes that while some artists are busy debating, others are just silent because they are friends with presenters and they don’t want to cross them.

“And then we have Kenyan musicians who like sitting on the fence whenever any meaningful industry discusions are taking place ndio wasikosee mabeste zao.
