Episode 092 | I Just Wanna Hear A Hit

This weeks episode begins with what Sam and Afam have been up to. Afam was out networking while Sam released some music. He also was at M.Rumbi's live show at Moov Cafe. He breaks down the show, and the performances (07:07). UMG East Africa announced Njerae as their latest signing. The boys talk about the signing in light of UMGs reputation from their past signings (11:54). That leads into a conversation about Nikita saying she doesn't do music for money (27:46). The boys then go through a list of the top streamed and watched artists in Kenya, which points out a major issue in the Kenyan music industry (31:09). Finally, Afam talks about recent artist shows and he highlights the OneBeat Initiative, it's application and deadline dates (39:15). The boys also review new music that dropped last week! Song Pick: Chris Kaiga - "Kameshika Signal" produced by Cedo. 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.
