End Of Sailors Gang? Lexxy Yung Ditches Gengetone Group For Gospel

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Is the famous Gengetone music group Sailors Gang coming to an end?

Just late last year, Media personality Mwalimu Rachel issued a statement indicating that she would no longer be booking Gengetone artistes Sailors for any gigs.

In a post shared on her Instagram in November last year, Mwalimu Rachel said she will instead focus on introducing new talents through her company MRX Media.

According to the radio presenter, her company had overseen the growth of the group from onscurity to their current nationwide popularity.

Rachel went on to add that she was pleased with the work her team at MRX did to grow the Sailors brand.

And just a few months later, one of the members of the music group has announced that he was leaving the group to join the Gospel industry.

In an emotional message on his Instagram page, Lexxy Yung has announced that he will be seeking salvation in the gospel industry.

Lexxy however maintained that there was no love lost with the other group members who include Miracle Baby, Shalkido African Boy, Qoqosjuma and Masilver.

“Am sorry mabro for this..And it’s with many tears Bana ..tumekuwa pamoja have done alot and achieve alot mih l wish you all best in your journey.Mih nmeamua to take on gospel industry promise sitawainamisha uko. And promise to always have your backs GOSPEL ARTISTS HERE I COME,” Lexxy Yung posted. 

Last year, Mwalimu Rachel also emotionally responded to accusations of denying Sailors their YouTube channel, which had all their previous songs and millions of video views.

The Wamlambez hit makers revealed that she had demanded more than Sh1.5 million from the group before she could release the passwords, an allegation she did not deny, saying the group and their current handlers needed to pay her for her input in building and popularising their brand.

​The media personality discovered the Sailors and was their manager for over two years before they fell out last year and the group found a new record label.

KFCB Sore Over Loutish Mbogi Genje Kisima Award Win

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

After a seven-year hiatus characterized by allegations of high handedness and corruption, the 2020 Kisima Film and Music Awards was finally held on Sunday 13th December at the Sarit Expo Center in Westlands.


The organizers had promised a flawless process that embraced a pan African outlook adding film categories to their repertoire thus it was a no brainer when ‘clean’ content champions Kenya film and classification board (KFCB) sponsored the rejuvenated Awards.


According to Dr Ezekiel Mutua, the partnership with KISIMA was a perfect nexus with their ‘Sinema mashinani’ initiative. Further, they had agreed to partner in nurturing raw talent with emphasis on ‘clean’ content.


It came as a shock however when Genge tone group Mbogi Genje were nominated and even more shocking when the group won best group award beating Kenya’s favourite boy band Sautisol.

A clearly disappointed Dr Ezekiel Mutua, took to his social media platforms to distance himself from the Mbogi Genje win; ’While I support the public’s right to choice and vote, it was my understanding that by sponsoring this Awards, KFCB’s clean content mandate would be upheld. Dr Mutua added that he has nothing personal against the new school rap group but is against people sanitizing vulgarity.

‘’We stand on the pedestal of promoting clean content, and we shall remain focused, morality cannot be traded as art “He added.

Zamaradi Media’s Dream Child Film scooped the clean content award in tandem with efforts to promote child friendly content and to encourage compliance with content regulations and procedures including adherence to film licensing and classification guidelines.

The clean content award winner received a Ksh 1,000,000 award from KFCB.
Dream Child was nominated in five categories including Best feature film, Best lead actor, Best supporting actor and Best supporting actress.
Kenya Film Classification board had sponsored the award with an agreement that artistes with clean content, rooted in the African story and those that promote clean morals would be feted.

Just recently, Dr Mutua at a press conference pleaded with creatives to desist from corrupting young minds with vulgar content. Kenya Film and Classification Board had sponsored the Kisima awards to the tune of Ksh 5,000,000.


The awards were also attended by Devolution CS, Eugene Wamalwa and former Nairobi Town clerk Philip Kisia.
CS Wamalwa also supported KFCB’s drive for clean content while awarding the cash prize.

VIDEO: Comedian Nick Big Fish Attacked, Roughed up in a Closed Bar

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Former Churchill show Comedian Nicki Big Fish was attacked in a bar while he shot a prank that went wrong.

In a video shared on his You Tube channel on Tuesday August 4, 2020, the comedian was assaulted alongside his camera-man, who was recording the prank with a hidden camera.

Bigfish had gone to a closed bar where a group of young men were drinking and chewing khat despite bars being closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

In the video, a yellow tape is seen at the entrance of the bar, probably indicating that the premise had been closed down due to the government’s directive.

Nick Big Fish is seen moving past the tape, and starts narrating how the revelers were defying Covid-19 directives as he slowly approached them.

The men sat watching, pensively, before the situation turned chaotic as a beer bottle was thrown at Bigfish and missed him by mere inches.

One of the men then stood and broke a beer bottle on the floor before accosting Bigfish, leaving the comedian shaken.

The comedian quickly stepped back behind the tape and made a quick exit.

Realizing that Bigfish was being recorded during his interrupted narration, the men turned their attention to the camera-man who stood at the other end of the room.

They roughed him up and demanded to know why he was recording them, even as the cameraman desperately pleaded with them claiming that he came alone.

This is the third prank by the comedian that has gone wrong.

The comedian in May this year got himself in another tough situation when he did another prank on people who escaping from quarantine centers.

One of his crew was roughed up by another man whom he had approached alleging that they were looking for him after he had escaped from quarantine.

Weeks after the incident, the comedian had been hospitalised after being beaten by some two men in another prank that went wrong.

While negotiating his exit deal, Kibe revealed that he was inebriated. He did also praise his former co-host with whom he worked with at NRG Radio.
