Episode 047 | Tanzania or Tanzaneeya

In todays episode, Sam and Afam get into the various activities they got into during the previous week. The boys then get into the topics for the week. Kenyans are a little annoyed at TZ musicians for allegedly failing to promote collaborations with Kenyan musicians. Nadia Mukami seems to be the latest to talk about the issue, accusing Tanzanian artist Darassa of the same after the release of her recent single, Siko Sure. This allegations lead the boys into a conversation on whether artists should have etiquette when it comes to releasing music and what they think that should look like. They then proceed to talk about who should be doing what when a big artist collaborates with a smaller one. On to some music industry news. Veteran Music producer Eric Musyoka attempts to solve the problem of music distribution and royalty collection with his outfit RIKE. Sam and Afam talk about this and the possibilities his solution offers. They then mention record company Sony's coming launch of a 10 Million dollar music fund for Entertainment Startups in Africa. The boys also review new music that dropped last week! To bring more awareness to the different genres of music within the industry we hope to see the artists & songs discussed in the podcast receive the recognition they deserve.
