Gospel singer Bahati is looking at other new ways he can take his troubled record label EMB Records now that most artists have left.
Mr Seed started the exodus after falling out with Bahati and his wife Diana early this year. Several other artists followed from then and Bahati has been working hard to clear his name from negative controversies.
Speaking to Mzazi, Bahati shared that he’s looking beyond music now as the new direction.
“It’s now EMB entertainment as it is now helping many people, not just artistes . There are new projects we have started that will help differently abled children. EMB is now an entertainment house. We have also been certified as a foundation by the government, Bahati Tena is now a foundation and this will help me help people better as a foundation,” he added.
Calling
Bahati added that his record label is not a business but a calling therefore God knows where He’s taking him.
“I was called to serve so in everything I do. He (God) give one a test and when you are tested you emerge stronger and he gives you more grace. He has given me more finances. I am waiting for him to tell me who is next,” Bahati said.
Singer Akothee has never shied from revealing her true thoughts and whenever she does, tongues are always left wagging.
This time round, the singer had a bone to pick with gospel artists who she claimed are as fake as they come. Ok, that’s not news we know, but Akothee wondered why they always flock clubs and secular artists can’t headline a church event.
Hypocrites
Speaking in an interview with Mseto East Africa, the mother of five claimed Kenyan gospel musicians are hypocrites as they preach water but take wine.
”I have a question I want to ask, why do gospel artistes attend our shows in night clubs but we can not perform in churches? I have bumped into some of them in Tribeka. What are they looking for in night clubs?” she asked.
Her comments come after singer Size 8 asked her to become a born again christian. Unsurprisingly, Akothee said she’ll never become a Christian because they’ll never accept her in any way.
Singer Bahati has a new song called “Diana” a dedication to his wife Diana Mwarua. The song comes after the two lovers “broke up” in an episode of their reality show Being Bahati that airs on NTV.
Kenyans however, are not happy with Bahati after he released the song and are claiming that he’s copying Otile Brown.
Sorry
Bahati begs for forgiveness in the song after annoying his wife, a thing that made many compare it with Otile Brown’s latest release.
“Niko vitanzi na moyo, Baby. Zaidi ya yote kumbuka Jana. Unasongo, mi nasonga, moyo unakataa, kinachonitia wasis wasi ni cha kuwambia kanisani. Na sijafeli, nina Imani moyoni, ulivyobeba virago, Kanisahau mie, na ukambeba mwanangu, amwite nani daddy?, Diana, Diana, wangu Diana, Niskieze Diana” sings Bahati.
Here’s what fans had to say:
HG Dynasty umekula uchafu tena na ulikuwa umerudi church its obvious ur trying to copy controversy za otile
Lauryn Nakitare Sasa umekuwa otile brown ati utaimba ukiwachwa.
Goma Ra Kimwamaro Wewe ndie unajua kilichomfanya aondoke na kuimba haisaidii suluhisho uende kwao mkaongee hapa unamwaga mtama kwenye kuku wengi tu
Milly Meely Good song but am confused bahati bado ni Gospel artist??? Pure lack of content,no offence
Magdalene Kioko The time you spent writing and recording this song should have been spent convincing her in private. Is she supposed to be knocking at your door now because you’ve sung to the world you’re hurting?

Heaven Bahati, Bahati’s daughter with Diana Marua, was recently hospitalized after falling ill. Bahati took to social media to thank her fans for the support and comforting messages they sent after Heaven was released from the hospital.
It seems Bahati might need the support from his fans yet again after his other daughter with Yvette Obura, Yvanna Muen, fell sick. Obura, who was heading to a wedding, shared on social media that the daughter wasn’t feeling well.
“Get well soon baby I love you ???.” she captioned on IG.
Bahati has not yet spoke about it on her social media but might soon will. Bahati and Obura were blessed with the daughter in 2015.

Just a few days ago singer Bahati held a big red carpet event to launch his first female artist on his EMB label. The event saw several celebrities grace the ceremony and so did his wife, Diana Marua.
This being her first public appearance since giving birth to their daughter; Diana Marua definitely looked amazing in her gold colored gown.
Well, looking at the photos it’s quite obvious to also note that she looks amazing even with the baby fat that is slowly shading off.
Diana Marua’s expensive gown
Speaking with the media, Bahati jokingly told SDE that his wife’s dress was worth all his Skiza money.
“I love this lady. You see that dress? It is worth all my Skiza money.”
Well looking at the dress we can all agree that the couple must have spent quite an amount to purchase the dress. Anyway check out how glamorous Marua looked at the event.
