Why Khaligraph Jones Doesn’t Want To Be Compared To Tanzanian Musicians Hitting Million Views In Hours
Tanzanian musicians have made it big in the East African music industry compared to other countries in the region. They’re the most established in terms of YouTube subs and viewership; with Diamond topping the leaderboard.
Hip-Hop Is Different!
Kenyan rapper Khaligraph Jones however thinks that his kind of music should not be compared to Tanzanian music. His latest song dubbed ‘Luku’ had fetched around 161K views on YouTube before he went live yester night. On the Instagram live, the rapper said that Hip-Hop is a different genre that should be appreciated differently.
”Tuko apa ivi we’re doing like 161K hits right now, which is a very good record. I think ni sababu Wasafi wamekuwa wakipiga ma 2 million. So mkiona tukipiga records kama 161K views in 23 hours you feel like it’s… Lakini you need to understand that mimi I’m a rapper. This is Hip-Hop.”
Khaligraph continued by saying that his Hip-Hop viewership is the best in Africa.
”Africa mzima hakuna msee anaget izo numbers. So ukiona tuna get such numbers on songs then this is something that you have to recognize.”
Khaligraph’s latest hit is number 3 trending on YouTube and now has 240K views since it’s release 1 day ago. I bet it’ll be hitting a million views in 2 weeks. Let’s support our own music.
