Posted on by David Kingsley

Celebrated Kenyan singer Major Nameye Khadija, known to you and I as Mejja, found himself on the receiving end after netizens claimed that his verse on Bensoul’s latest jam Nairobi featuring Sauti Sol and Nviiri is below par.

Okwonkwo, as he is popularly known, was the man behind the biggest hits in 2020. As such, we would not blame Bensoul for asking him to drop a verse on the track.

However, many Kenyans were not really impressed with his lyrics in Nairobi – which basically talks about how girls are sleeping with every Tom, Dick and Harry.

While some opined that him featuring in every song that comes out has become monotonous, others claimed that he ruined Nairobi, which according to them is a good song, and that his verse should be deleted.

The song titled Nairobi is the first track off his forthcoming album Velocity and it has been ruling the airwaves since it came out a few days ago and to be honest, we are also feeling it.

Magix Enga claims that he had no money and had to look for jobs to put a meal on the table and have a roof over his head. Further, he warns people to fear Nairobi because you can’t really survive without money.

I absolutely love this jam. Other than the message it carries, Magix Enga continues to prove that he is one of the few versatile artists that we have around and I’m here for every moment.

Other than being a dope singer, this chap can also flow and he is interesting to listen to. He gets you hooked from the moment you hit the play button. To add to that, he is a bad ass producer.

As you would expect, the beat on this track is sick. After all, it was produced by Magix Enga himself. It also blends so well with his flow and tempo.

Although I love the video, I must admit that there’s nothing that is so special about it other than money being thrown around. Anyway, kudos to Magix Enga for the good job. We are waiting for the album eagerly.
