Singer Vivian has come a long way from being a hawker to a successful singer. The singer, who is married to Sam West, was on social media to remember back in the day when she used to be paid only 6,000 shillings a month.

She posted photos on Instagram showing her contract, thanking the people who gave her a chance to live her dream five years ago as an upcoming artist.

Anyway, in a new post shared on her Instagram page Vivianne has come out to defend herself from those saying that her music is not good enough. This comes after a certain influential booking agent apparently told her that her music needed some more work to make it better.
