Embarambamba has released his latest song. Skia message:

Gospel artist Christopher Mosioma, popularly known as Embarambamba, has revealed that the fine imposed on him by the Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) for ‘indecent’ music has been reduced.

Initially, Embarambamba received a demand letter from the KFCB for non-compliance with the Films and Stage Play Act Cap 222 of the Laws of Kenya. The KFCB management notified him that he had violated Sections 4 (Part II) and 12 of Cap 222, which regulate the creation, broadcasting, possession, distribution, and exhibition of audio-visual content in Kenya.

On March 4th, the singer was fined Ksh 6.4 million and was summoned to the KFCB offices to discuss the content of his music, which was deemed inappropriate.

Taking to his social media on March 20th, Embarambamba announced that he had received a second demand letter, which reduced the fine imposed on him.

Expressing his struggles, he stated, “They say they have given me two months to pay for the license of my songs I have sung.”

Embarambamba appealed to Kenyans to contribute and assist him in paying the fine, explaining the challenges he is facing. He mentioned, “Kenyans, even where I have reached, I can be confused. Because even sleep has been elusive. Since I saw the 6.4 million, now they have reduced it and said I should pay 1.38 something towards it. I should pay for the license of my songs I have sung so that I can continue with my singing.”

He further pleaded, “I know Kenyans, please, I may be confused now, I don’t know how you will help me Governors, Senators, MCAs, members, and all those who have been blessed in this Kenyan world. Please, I don’t know how you will help me so that I can continue with this singing. Because I am confused, and I have not had any sleep.”

In the initial demand letter, Embarambamba was instructed to delete all his music videos, obtain a new filming license, and submit his videos for evaluation.

Gospel musician Christopher Mosioma, known by his stage name “Embarambamba,” has been a source of both controversy and reconciliation recently. His energetic and unconventional performances are well-known, but his latest music video, “Niko Uchi,” attracted criticism for its explicit content and vulgarity.

Despite previous threats of suspension from the Musicians Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK) due to his “indecent songs,” MCSK Chairman Ezekiel Mutua recently announced a change of heart. Mutua shared photos on social media depicting a meeting held at his office with Embarambamba, who was accompanied by his lawyer and a Member of Parliament. In a particularly striking image, Mutua rests his hand on Embarambamba’s head, suggesting a gesture of blessing and a potential path towards resolving the conflict.

“Everyone deserves a second chance. Embarambamba needs help. Just as Saul turned to Paul, so can Embarambamba. Today, at the behest of the Majority Chief Whip, Hon. Silvanus Osoro, and Embarambamba’s legal team led by Wakili Danstan Omari, we have embarked on the journey to help Embarambamba reform. I hope to God that this guy’s energy can be turned into something constructive.”

This development comes after Embarambamba challenged the Kenya Film Classification Board’s (KFCB) decision to ban his music videos and impose a significant fine of KSh 6.4 million. In a letter to the KFCB, Embarambamba argued that these actions were discriminatory and excessively punitive.

Controversial gospel artist Chris Embarambamba has urged netizens to refrain from judging or criticizing his music, emphasizing that people often misunderstand him. In a video shared online, the Kisii artist encouraged listeners to approach his music with an open mind and focus on the message rather than making hasty judgments.

Expressing disappointment with those calling for a ban on his singing, Embarambamba argued that his music is not as morally objectionable as people claim. He cited biblical principles, mentioning that negative conversations can spoil good manners.

According to the artist, the real issue lies in people’s understanding of his songs. He urged them to listen to his music from start to finish to fully grasp the intended message. Despite his unconventional music videos involving unique antics, Embarambamba emphasized that he is a gospel artist following God’s instructions to spread the gospel.

He suggested that interested individuals should stream his music from three years ago to gain a better understanding of both him and his music. Notably, Embarambamba recently faced an order to remove his latest song, “Niko Uchi,” from all media platforms due to alleged violations of the Films and Stage Plays Act. The Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) cited concerns about the song’s impact on children and the public, leading to the intervention.

Kisii musician Embarambamba County has revealed that he has never been invited to perform in his home county, despite being popular in other parts of Kenya and abroad.

He says that he has been compared to a madman and told to hide by people from his own community. He also recalls how his portrait was burned when Ruto was visiting Kisii, and how he was removed from the schedule of the president’s entertainers after complaints from members of his community.

Embarambamba says that he has been invited to almost all places in the country apart from home, and that it is only now that his people have started to regret not inviting him in the past.

This is a sad story, and it is unfortunate that Embarambamba has not been accepted by his own community. His music is enjoyed by people all over Kenya, and he should be celebrated for his talent and success.

I hope that Embarambamba’s story will help to raise awareness of the importance of acceptance and inclusivity. We should all be proud of our unique cultures and heritage, and we should celebrate the diversity that makes our country so special.

Controversial Kisii musician Chris Embarambamba has once again taken to social media to show off his domestic skills. In a video posted on Friday, July 14, the gospel artiste can be seen helping his wife with chores while promoting his new song.

The video shows Embarambamba wearing a red skirt alongside his wife at their Kisii home. He is seen sweeping the floor, washing dishes, and cooking. He also promotes his new song, in which he asks God to lick his sins.

The video has been met with mixed reactions online. Some Kenyans found the video quite funny, while others admonished Embarambamba for the lyrics and wearing a dress.

This is not the first time Embarambamba has caused controversy with his videos. In the past, he has been criticized for his flamboyant dress sense and his controversial lyrics. However, he has also been praised for his talent and his ability to connect with his fans.

Only time will tell whether Embarambamba’s latest video will be a hit or a miss. However, one thing is for sure: he is not afraid to be himself, even if it means courting controversy.

Controversial gospel singer Chris Embarambamba has defended his recent cross-dressing, saying he did it to get attention for his new YouTube channel.

Embarambamba’s channel was deleted after he uploaded a video from New Life Church led by Pastor Ezekiel Odero without their consent. In order to attract attention and get people to follow his new channel, Embarambamba cross-dressed in a video that he posted on social media.

“I received a strike on YouTube, and my channel was deleted after I uploaded a video from New Life Church led by Pastor Ezekiel Odero without their consent,” Embarambamba said. “So I cross-dressed to attract attention and use the chance to ask people to follow my new channel.”

Embarambamba’s cross-dressing has been met with mixed reactions. Some people have criticized him for his actions, while others have defended him, saying that he is simply trying to be creative.

“I am not trying to be controversial,” Embarambamba said. “I am just trying to be creative and attract attention for my new channel.”

It remains to be seen whether Embarambamba’s cross-dressing will help him to attract new subscribers to his YouTube channel. However, it is clear that he is willing to do whatever it takes to get attention.

Gospel singer Embarambamba has lost his YouTube channel after receiving a copyright strike for using a video featuring Pastor Ezekiel Odero. Embarambamba, who is known for his energetic and flamboyant performances, had used a video of Pastor Ezekiel preaching in one of his songs.

The copyright strike was issued by Pastor Ezekiel’s New Life Church, which claimed that Embarambamba had not obtained permission to use the video.Embarambamba has since appealed to Pastor Ezekiel to withdraw the copyright strike, but his appeal has been unsuccessful.

As a result of the copyright strike, Embarambamba’s YouTube channel has been terminated. This means that all of his videos have been removed from YouTube, and he is no longer able to upload new videos.

Embarambamba’s loss of his YouTube channel is a major setback for his career. He had over 1 million subscribers on YouTube, and his videos had been viewed over 100 million times. The loss of his YouTube channel will make it much more difficult for him to reach his fans and promote his music.

Embarambamba is not the first gospel singer to be affected by copyright strikes. In recent years, there has been a growing trend of copyright strikes being issued against gospel singers. This is due in part to the fact that gospel music is often based on traditional hymns and songs, which are often copyrighted.

The issue of copyright strikes is a complex one, and there is no easy solution. However, the loss of Embarambamba’s YouTube channel is a reminder of the importance of obtaining permission before using copyrighted material.

Analysis

The loss of Embarambamba’s YouTube channel is a reminder of the importance of obtaining permission before using copyrighted material. It is also a reminder of the challenges that gospel singers face in the digital age. Copyright strikes can have a devastating impact on a gospel singer’s career, and it is important for singers to be aware of the risks involved in using copyrighted material.

Kisii gospel singer Embarambamba has expressed his desire to collaborate with Diana Marua, the wife of renowned singer Bahati.

Embarambamba, whose real name is Ezekiel Ambala, is known for his unique style of music, which combines traditional Kisii music with gospel. He has become a popular figure in Kenya, and his songs have been streamed millions of times on YouTube.

Diana Marua is a singer and businesswoman. She is married to Bahati, one of Kenya’s most popular musicians. She has released several solo albums, and she has also collaborated with other artists, including Bahati and Willy Paul.

Embarambamba said that he has been a fan of Diana Marua’s music for a long time, and he would love to collaborate with her on a gospel song.

“I think our voices would blend really well,” he said. “I’m also a big fan of her music, and I think we could create something really special together.”

Diana Marua has not yet responded to Embarambamba’s request, but she has previously expressed her interest in collaborating with gospel artists.

“I’m always open to collaborating with new artists,” she said. “I think it’s important to cross-pollinate genres, and I think gospel music is a genre that has a lot to offer.”

If Embarambamba and Diana Marua were to collaborate, it would be a major coup for both artists. It would be a chance for Embarambamba to reach a wider audience, and it would be a chance for Diana Marua to explore a new genre of music.

Only time will tell if the collaboration will happen, but it is certainly something to keep an eye on.

Embarambaba, the Kenyan singer who has been trending for wearing a brown pleated skirt and red crop top, has spoken out about his outfit.

In an interview with YouTuber Nicholas Kioko, Embarambaba said that he does not believe he is controversial, as labelled by Kenyans.

Embarambaba said that he chose to wear the skirt because he felt comfortable in it.

“I like the way it looks,” he said. “And I feel confident in it.”

Embarambaba said that he is aware that some people may not agree with his choice of outfit, but he does not care.

“I’m not here to please everyone,” he said. “I’m just here to be myself.”

Embarambaba said that he hopes that his outfit will inspire others to be themselves and to not be afraid to express themselves.

“I want people to see me and say, ‘If he can do it, I can do it too,'” he said.

Embarambaba’s outfit has sparked a debate on social media, with some people supporting his decision to wear it and others criticizing him.

However, Embarambaba said that he is not bothered by the criticism.

“I’m used to it,” he said. “I’ve always been different.”

Embarambaba said that he is proud of who he is and that he will continue to express himself, regardless of what others think.

“I’m not going to change for anyone,” he said. “I’m just going to be me.”

”Hii video inazunguka kwa mtandao nilikuwa sherehe apo karibu na Thika road. Wakenya wamenihukumu, wakenya wamenitusi. Ma fans wangu wamekasirika. Lakini kitu nataka mgundue wakenya, hii video kabla huja comment; angalia the statement of the song. Song inasema umetoa hii ujinga ya kufanya  fanya video upuzi wapi? Umesahau Mungu kwa msalaba. Umetoa hii ujinga ya kuangalia na kufanya vitu za ujinga…”

KFCB boss Ezekiel Mutua noted Embarambamba’s video and claimed he crossed the line; and that he’d face the consequences.

Now, Hon Alinur thinks that condemning him without offering help is useless. He has offered to help Embarambamba regain his glory back. On his twitter, he wrote;

”Unlike most people, I am not going to take a back seat and just condemn Embarambamba without offering him any help. It’s evident he has a problem. Now his career is half dead. He urgently needs help or we’ll lose this rare talent. I am going to find him and help him immediately.”

Embrambamba’s Explanation;

The gospel artist has now come out to explain himself about the viral video that saw even his fans get angry at him; for acting contrary to his words in his gospel music.

He explained the video on his YouTube channel saying;

”Hii video inazunguka kwa mtandao nilikuwa sherehe apo karibu na Thika road. Wakenya wamenihukumu, wakenya wamenitusi. Ma fans wangu wamekasirika. Lakini kitu nataka mgundue wakenya, hii video kabla huja comment; angalia the statement of the song. Song inasema umetoa hii ujinga ya kufanya  fanya video upuzi wapi? Umesahau Mungu kwa msalaba. Umetoa hii ujinga ya kuangalia na kufanya vitu za ujinga… Yesu alikuja kwa hii dunia kwa wale watu walikuwa wabaya. Wachawi, wezi. Hakukuja kwa wazuri pekee yake.

Ndio maana Yesu wakati alikuwa kwa hii dunia alikaa na washerati. Kwa nini? Waokoke wamjue Mungu. Huezi kusema Embrambamba usiende kwa klabu ama usiende kwa mkutano wa siasa na hiyo ni vitu ya dunia. Wote tuko kwa hii dunia. Na Mungu alituweka kwa hii dunia. Tukubali tumfuate… Tukubali na kutii… God bless Kenya…”

Gospel artist Embarambamba, real name Christopher Musyoma, has been a topic of discussion after videos of him acting like a mad man while dancing went viral. Ironically, the singer does not do his music videos while under influence of drugs or alcohol.

A day ago, he nearly got knocked by a motorcycle while doing one of his theatrical acts. Days before this, KFCM CEO Ezekiel Mutua advised the musician to stop hurting himself. He wrote to him;

“Come let’s find a way out. You sound ok, but ur theatrics are embarrassing & must be moderated!”

Embarambamba on his side said that he likes to incorporate comedy and theatrics into his gospel music. He once fell in a toilet while performing in a ceremony. He disclosed the ordeal in an interview on Jalang’o TV;

Sasa kufika apo kwa uwanja, hio ngoma ikawekwa. Wamama ndio hawa, furaha ikanishika. Saa ile na roll, nikasonga kidogo kutoka kwa sherehe. Saa ile na roll ivo karibu na corner, nikapata naingia kwa shimo. Uzuri hio choo ilikuwa imetangulishwa udongo kidogo…

Additionally, Embrambamba says his dangerous acts have never gotten him to hospital after he started gospel music. He is now seeking more financial support from his fans in order to do more collaborations with artists countrywide.
