Otile Brown explains why it’s hard for a Kenyan artist to make it big in the music scene

Kenyan or rather local artists have alsways been pressured into becoming super stars; and for some reason, their fans also want to high quality videos – just like they see with the likes of Bongo artists and Nigerian.

What many don’t know is that most of these big African artists have ‘godfathers’ who helpnsupport their music finally. This was however explicated in depth by Otile Browns new post that has left many talking.

As seen on the post, Otile Brown goes on to advise local artist not to be pushed into such pressure; as music has never been easy for an independent artist who goes out of his way to release (songs, videos) that they can afford.

Speaking about this, Otile wrote a long post saying;

I think Kenyan artists should be respected ????. All of those ‘big artists’ y’all compadre is with, they have Godfathers who hold down and where now that they have made it, their godfathers are still putting money on their projects.

Explains why it takes time to blow up

On the  same post, the singer cum song writer went on to explain to fans; why most local artists have to slowly grow in  the industry.

According to Otile this is because they have no option but to depend on themselves in terms of financials. The singer went on to add;

Our growth has to be slow and gradual coz we are always doing it all by ourselves, no label; no investors and remember we ain’t from rich families.
