Wife Begins at Dinner

Image
Here is a Valentine's weekend plan for you. Heartstrings Kenya once again proved themselves to be masters of physical comedy with their  production of Wife Begins at Dinner, starting with Cyprian Osoro’s rigorous exercise workout that was energising, accelerating and an excellent warm-up to a highly animated and witty show. It’s an apparently fluff story about the hazards, pitfalls and liabilities of the ‘come-we-stay’ style of coupling that’s so popular among young Kenyans today. It’s a hoot of a high-energy comedy that puts the would-be ‘husband’ Cyprian in the thick of a make-believe matrimonial mess. He’s a supervisor in a company whose boss intends to come see him at home, supposedly for a simple get-together but really to inspect the ‘moral uprightness’ of his manager since his rule is all his supervisors must be legally married. Of course, Cyprian is not. His live-in honey Helen (Marclyn Adhiambo) has been with him for two years, so when he ‘pops the que...

THE POLITICS OF THE FEW MANY

Image
This is an article by STEVE GAVANA, a candidate in the upcoming SONU elections vying for a post in Faculty Rep Module One THE POLITICS OF THE FEW MANY. The greatest moment in the life of an individual is when they step out of their former state of miplaced thinking and diet and experience renovatio that serves to emancipate them from the "what is in it for me?" attitude into a more civilised form of life that entails societal co-existence. The loop of change that any yeoman would love to witness, is the magnanimous shift from the lower politics of self-interest into the messiah of politics which is the politics of the people by the people for the people. Measured in the scale of paradigm shift it escalates to the heights of the early church, don't ask if you don't know.The political mambo jumbo that dismisses this approach is of a very retrogrresive stand, I must say. Many of our political pins swing their hands in the open pervy effort of making publicity stands a...

The Gospel of Today

What exactly prompted me to post this?It has to be Mr Seed's post...come on Bahati and Willy Paul, are you going to make us do this all again, call the two of you immature?It's 2016 guys!! I mean why,lie to us that the two of you reconciled yet bring this to the table barely a year later? Is this what you preach in your songs? You have amazing talent and good luck I must say, because your songs always get Airplay a minute after being released. Other gospel musicians have songs too but they don't get recognition like you...Willy Paul you are always in scandals as if you are in a competition with the entire #NairobiDiaries Cast.Mwezi hauwezi isha without your name on Blogs and Tabloids, you can quit The Gospel industry coz you are soo lost. Bahati you are always complaining about Willy Paul, Either he stole your songs or he talked ill about you, I'm your great fan but I'm not in support of this. What's really happening to the two of you. Mr Seed is right, some ...

Who Is King

What seemed to have ensued as a Small Lyrical beef has become the talk of the city and everyone seems to be a waiting for the crowning of the King of Hiphop in Kenya. Now I will not lie to you that I am a Hip hop fan...noo. In fact anyone who knows me will tell you that I love Afro beats,some bit of Kapuka and Conscious music and so I really have no Idea about what this whole beef is about. Yesterday I was listening to a show by Adelle Onyango named #UrbanAfrica [you sh ould listen in]. It's a show that plays purely African Jams and Bamzigi was asked about "Who is King" Well I can't remember his exact words but his answer got me thinking, is it really the Lyrics that make someone the King in this Hip hop world?It takes a whole lot for one to be at the Top of the food chain. My list is not Consensual but I think according to me, its not about the lyrics. .. Check out my list in order ...from the bottom 4. Octo This guy fell off from the race before things heated u...

The Sorrows of Online Roasting

Image
If you are a WhatsApp fan and you are really into groups like me, you are probably familiar with the terms "beef" or "roast" and there is another one "Toast"...This terms majorly circulate among Beef and they relate well.So in the Internet world if you have a beef with someone, you will either get roasted or toasted by them . Though there are people who have pleasure in beefing with ordinary members, friends, admins and Celebrities There are many factors that create beefs among group members, factors I would really like to mention but I can't. .Recently just a few days ago, I was roasted real good by a bunch of rejects from different groups, And I must compliment their skills in the mastery of the art...it's like people are paid to abuse other people. I did not take keen interest but I felt for people with low self esteem, I placed myself in their shoes and wondered how they really felt . Sometimes it is not good to take out your frustrations on...
