KRG da Don needs to pay Amerix to mentor him

Posted on March 14, 2022 by Ozymandias

KRG da Don is down bad and there is little anyone in his social circle seems to be able to do to help him get back on his feet. If anything, they seem more and more with each passing antic they forgive him for getting up to that they are nothing but yes-men too scared of scaring away the guy they are parasites to.

Meet Mbogi Genje’s manager believed to be dating KRG’s wife, Linah

And that is why we are seeing the upcoming rapper/ dancehall artist struggling to let go of his situation with his estranged wife, Linah Wanjiru Kiruthi. And I don’t blame him for feeling hurt. On paper, he is the type of man any woman would be happy to have calling her his.

He is handsome, he is of above-average height (the Kenyan average being 5’7″ for men) and he is wealthy, reportedly being the scion of a wealthy and established family. So what went wrong? that is the question KRG should be focused on answering but he is instead chasing his tail and sinking to rubbish antics, constantly trading insults with his wife (they are still legally married) and accusing her of cheating on him.

The rapper was livid when he, like the rest of us, found out that Linah was involved with Ochungulo Family’s Benzema. Now, it turns out she is currently with Mbogi Genje’s manager, a man popularly known as Elvis Makutsa aka Eastlands President.

Can you imagine that after all the praise KRG used to shower on his wife, all the lavish gifts he gave her, she still left him and decided she wanted bad boys? Ofcourse all that hurts da Don. It would leave you gutted too. But there is an opportunity for him to make himself better after studying the failures of this marriage and emerging a man forged in the flames of failure and made anew, like the phoenix from the flames. And the man to help him with this journey is Amerix.

‘We Are Not Struggling, We Have Endorsements’- Mbogi Genje’s Message To KRG On Their Beef

For those of you who do not know Amerix, he is a phenomenon on Twitter who has been counselling men and attempting to help them become the best versions of themselves that they can aspire to be. he is a life coach who teaches men how to train their minds, bodies and focus them towards the single goal of pursuing their mission in life.

KRG needs that. Sure, he is a businessman who can boast a wide variety of businesses including construction but as a father and leader of his household, the head of his relationship, he is a failure. So perhaps he should reach out to Amerix to try and figure out how he can become the man his sons think him to be, the type of man other men want to be and women want to be with. The type of man whose wife wouldn’t stray from out of fear that she will never get a man of his calibre ever again in her life.

KRG da Don needs to learn to STFU about his family

But for that to happen, he would have to confess his ego and pride. He would have to accept that he has failed and actually give an honest and earnest attempt at learning how to improve himself. That means getting his diet right, focusing on getting fit then strong and finally becoming a man who is in control of every aspect of his life that we as mortals can ever hope to be.

For now, all we can do is pray and hope that KRG actually gets his act together. I wouldn’t hold my breath however if I were you. He seems to be enjoying playing in his emotions and the muck that is the feminine urge to throw insults at his ex and the men who are currently bouncing her on their laps.

KRG Da Don: Why Benzema (Alehandro) should sue him for rapist remark

Posted on February 15, 2021 by Ozymandias

KRG Da Don had a rather interesting reaction to finding out the rather sudden and shocking news that Ochungulo family were breaking up. Rather than the normal reaction of shock or horror, he decided to congratulate the group for refusing to work with Benzema whom he alleged was a rapist.

‘A Rapist Shouldn’t Be Your Partner’ Krg Congratulates D’more And Nelly the Goon For Splitting Up With Benzema

The allegation is one that has been plaguing Benzema who even made a song about the matter explained that it was one of the most traumatic events of his life when he was falsely accused of rape. So for KRG da Don to go for this seemingly to the rest of us out of the blue is perplexing.

I found myself wondering why he would decide to take such an uncalled for shot at Benzema/ Alehandro and I thought that given they are both rappers, and hip-hop is simply a bloodsport, he was attacking because he had caught the scent of blood but then I realized that this is KRG Da Don.

ONE ON ONE: “Mzungu Bonoko akona 5K yangu!” Miracle Baby calls out KRG The Don

And by that I mean that he usually does this. He is something of a troll, he simply attacks other artists to keep his name in the headlines. That is why KRG Da don went after Miracle baby of Sailors. And while at the time I thought it was legitimate beef, this recent attack makes me think otherwise.

Sailors Gang and KRG Da Don before their beef

Sometimes, even I am wrong. And while it is a rare occasion to behold, it still does indeed happen. And that is why we are here today. KRG decided to troll Alehandro/ Benzema and i think he should sue him for the damage such an allegation does to an individual’s name.

KRG vs Benzema: Stop responding to everyone with an opinion

To put someone through that trauma a second time should be dealt with severely and while I would have rather told Benzema to physically handle their dispute (I am learning from a mentor I have that sometimes a quick punch to the mouth instils discipline), I don’t think that would be as gratifying as making him have to part way with some of his money in retribution.

Benzema is a creative genius but we don't say it enough — Benzema

And as such, I need to advise Benzema to sue KRG Da Don who has a penchant for ostentatious posts on social media. That means there is probably something he can get from the man as a way of saying pole and that’s a good thing.

The rapist remark is one that can kill careers anywhere in the world but especially for someone whose career depends on getting sponsorship deals and other endorsements, especially since alot of the key decision-makers, are women and rape is a crime that disproportionally targets women.

Ochungulo Family split will play out exactly like Camp Mulla’s

Posted on February 11, 2021 by Ozymandias

Ochungulo Family have shocked the world by not only announcing that they were splitting but also by going as far as to delete all their content off YouTube! This not only shocked me because of the fact they were my favourite Gengeton group but mainly because it was very telling of the underlying animosity.

Gengetone Group Ochungulo Family Split, Delete Their Songs From YouTube

Whatever the three former members of Ochungulo Family can say about the breakup to assuage fears, the fact that their content has been deleted off YouTube reeks of internal strife and animus as it is the type of move that is reminiscent of the statement, “cutting your nose off to spite your face”.

D.More, Nelly the Goon and Benzema are doubtless talented artists who have actually been branching out and doing their own songs either as collaborative artists or having solo songs that they invite other artists to share in but they were primarily known for being the members of Ochungulo Family who would regal us with humorous and entertaining song lyrics even in their club bangers.

“He doesn’t use protection!” Noti Flow exposes Ochungulo family’s Benzema

And this reminds me of a group I used to love while I was actually still a small boy; Camp Mulla. For whatever reasons they had, they decided to call it quits. And each member of the group, from Shappaman, KusMa, Karun and Taio Tripper decided to pursue a solo career. They even released EPs of their own which gave credence to their individual ambitions but Kenyans weren’t exactly receptive.

And they failed to have the same chemistry in their music as solo artists as they did as a group with different artists infusing their own styles into each track. And Ochungulo Family will doubtless suffer from this fact too. Each member is talented indeed but how will they combat the nostalgia their fans have?

This would also complicate the fact that event organizers will for a while only want to book Ochungulo Family and not the individual artists. This is a problem because if only one of the former members appears at an event, will he be allowed to perform the entire catalogue of the group on his own?

Ochungulo Family's Benzema — Benzema aka Benzema Alehandro a former member of Ochungulo Family

And speaking of that issue, another comes to mind: they do not have a huge catalogue of work as individual artists. Ochungulo Family for the longest time and over quite afew years was the vehicle for their creativity and musical talent.

Ochunglo Family keeps setting the pace for Gengetone artists

Perhaps I am simply ranting as a hurt fan in mourning for Ochungulo Family but I will counter that argument by saying that Kenyans rarely, if ever, forgive such a betrayal. When you think back to the years gone, name me a group that went their separate ways and Kenyans came back to embrace the solo careers of the members… Outside of Nyashinski, I will wait. Or perhaps Benzema, D.More and Nelly the Goon will be the guys to prove me wrong. I can only hope.

KRG vs Benzema: Stop responding to everyone with an opinion

Posted on September 29, 2020 by Ozymandias

KRG and Benzema seem to be heading towards having some major beef. All this is down to the fact that Benzema aired his opinions about KRG da Don’s music aswell as that of Arrow Boy.

KRG the Don hits back at Benzema, refers to him as a rapist!

You see, taste in music is entirely subjective. What sounds good to one audience, one person or even one culture might not get more than a grunt of acknowledgement if even that. That is why you can’t really get used at anyone who isn’t necessarily feeling your music or your favourite song.

We are then brought to the point that perhaps it was the way Benzema put forth his opinions about KRG’s music. It actually came off as flippant and that might be what hurt the latter’s feelings. Afterall, they are both artists so Benzema should know how much of himself his peer pours into his art so perhaps he should have been less scathing in his critique.

KRG however, needs to learn that not every critic needs a response. You see, as an artist, he has fans. They might nit be as many as those Benzema and his group Ochungulo Family have but all in all, he has fans. So why bother responding to a hater rather than fully focusing on the people who are interested in your music? Why focus on the negative so strongly and not the positive with equal fervour?

You see, at the end of the day, Benzema was not wrong for what he said, you can use YouTube views as a metric for the success or failure of an artist’s music and on this one, he is right, he is ahead of KRG. However, KRG too isn’t wrong when he says that YouTube views don’t necessarily point to the success of an artist’s career. Money does and perhaps he has found a way to properly monetize his audience. Whatever the case may be, KRG’s response to Benzema mingled in a large portion of emotion to it which diluted it’s message.

The best response would be for KRG to go all out on releasing songs that are arguably better and can grow his support base further. That is the type of response I would expect from an artist who has been slighted especially when you consider the fact that he should be responding through his work.

At the end of the day, what do I know outside of the fact that this response wasn’t it. I am more impressed by Arrow Boy’s silence. He is probably in the studio cooking up some heat for his fans rather than engaging in noisemaking. Or perhaps I have just spoken too soon.

Ochungulo Family are also in the Twa Twa mode

Posted on November 29, 2019May 5, 2020 by Catherine Nderitu

With the new Twa Twa wave, Ochungulo family were also not left behind. They also adapted the famous phrase to make a song.

Anyway, it is always good to go with the crowd but at least change the meaning in the song. In this jam, they used the Twa Twa to explain the pastor’s message with sound actions.

But as we say, for this groups to sell, the message has to be vulgar. Even though the group is not my cup of tea, the way they delivered the Twa Twa message will leave you laughing.

It is so funny how the Ochungulo group did the lyrics. I mean you can already feel like what the pastor was saying is actually in motion.

Twa Twa is a sexual song imitating the pastor

But it is a bit funny how all the groups took advantage of the trending phrases and in a couple of hours, they all had a tune.

The things that they all do to earn a living. Even if Ezekiel Mutua was to ban this phrase Twa Twa, I think it already meaning then.

I do not have to translate the lyrics in this. Am sure you can already guess the message without going wrong. Ochungulo family and the pastor seems to have connected only that they had to bring out the sexual theme.

Twa Twa is explained in many ways. Inaezakua shuma irare dani ama pia kutwaga kazi twa twa twaaaaa!!! Vile tu utaamua imaanishe kwako pia ni sawa. this song was made after Ochungulo family saw a video from a widely celebrated wife of a pastor who preached words of wisdom to the church. Enjoy, sex si manmade achana na rugby na futibo.

In addition to the crazy lyrics, what is funny is how they have used the effects of the pastor’s voice. In conclusion, they get a rating of 5/10.

Naiboi is back with ‘Sondeka’ 2 featuring All Stars

Posted on September 16, 2019May 5, 2020 by Catherine Nderitu

Naiboi is back with Sondeka part 2 featuring All Stars. Those featured in this jam are ExRay, Kristoff, Fena, Benzema, Femi One, Mordecai, V6 and Khaligraph Jones. Sondeka part 2 is introduced by Dj Shitti a comedian and an actor. It is a great collabo where all those mentioned have performed a stanza.

Also, Sondeka part 2 is a continuation of Sondeka part 1. In this jam Naiboi is talking about correcting certain behavior in human beings.

Sondeka Part 2 is all about what?

To start with, you’ll notice that these artists are also talking about MCSK. This is in line with the recent payments they made to the musicians and angered them.

They say that they are correcting that. It says that tabia ya kukali wasanii na MCSK tunasondeka. Also, they talk of how people are jealousy when they see one with a big car.

Naiboi is very talented and the way he also performs his lines is just good.

To add on they go ahead to talk about how people should stop lying. Khaligraph Jones talks of how one is telling them she is in Dubai and in real sense she is in a matatu ya Mwangi.. This is crazy. Also he goes ahead to add on how MCSK sent him Ksh 2530.

Whatever the thing they want to correct seems to have affected them so much. I like how Khaligraph says that someone talks of Uhuru being their relative whereas the only person who knows then is Dj Shitti.

Niaboi is very creative in this Sondeka jam. The fact that he has brought a couple of artists on board shows team work. Sondeka has been produced by Rixx. The video is super good and quality.

It is a combination of great voices and this has come up with something good. Actually the song will leave you laughing at some point. Naiboi needs to be congratulated on this one.

In conclusion, Sondeka part 2 by Naiboi is a cool jam and you should listen to it. It gets a rating of 7/10.
