It's a conversation I really enjoy having, especially with many people who suddenly find themselves in the spotlight.
I don't know what this guy did, by the way. He was an Nduthi man.
I also had that same name, which was Nduruman.
So the question was, was it Nduruman or?
It was Nduruman.
The whistling lady was?
Risila Waimani
Someone posted on Nairobi Gossip and said, just a question, kwani what goes wrong with these young people who come, trend, and rise quickly, only to later realize that Merudia is their normal life.
Like Kina Jensi, Goliath, Mgeshwa Vasha, Kenyan Kante, Stupid Boy, and others like them.
Shida is their team or Shida ni nini?
Hello, welcome.
Goliath, you're a fool.
Ask your followers to pata maon.
What's wrong with you?
Hello, what's up?
What about management?
What is it?
Ama it's just a moment that I was distracted.
Ideally, in the US, the UK, and internationally, people become internet sensations.
They may never remain relevant, but in a way, their lives change.
Is it because our industry is still young?
That's why, by the way, you're better at this stuff, Kunishi.
The issue regarding entertainment matters.
I think you have a better experience, but whatever you said makes sense to me.
Because I had never seen it from this perspective.
Is it because our industry is weak?
I mean too young?
And not strong enough to?
Because when the industry is strong enough, it allows room for some mistakes.
Yes, and also some mistakes.
And when it's just too small and too tight, I think it's more about survival of the fittest.
It's less forgiving of mistakes, and the less fit you are, the greater the chance you'll just fall back.
And this reminds me of this quote.
The book I was reading by Jay-Z.
And he was talking about the lack of consistency that people show in any industry.
And he was talking about that, according to him, success, in order to be called phenomenal,
is not hitting and is not known for a certain period of time.
But being known consistently for at least 10, 20, or 30 years.
He was speaking in terms of decades, not in terms of years.
He was saying that this is now what reveals the true measure of success.
And he was saying that when it's less than that, it's just clout.
It just happened.
It's just a coincidence that happened to you.
It's just something that happened to you by chance, and you couldn't make use of it.
We can explain it that way regarding our industry being weaker or younger.
But the reality is, personally, I don't like living a life like someone who
Living life as if it were how life could have been rather than how life actually is.
Let's say our industry is weak and small.
So we wish it could have been larger.
In other words, when you say that, that's what you mean.
When that's your argument, it means you wish it could have been larger.
But you know wishing can just end at wishing.
The reality is, this is what we have.
This is the industry we have.
What do you do with it?
I think one of the biggest things these guys usually do when they find themselves in the spotlight.
Number one, they confuse fame with success.
You see, you are known.
Someone knows you for something.
And...
You have already found a manager.
Then the following day, you don't even know.
You haven't even figured out what you want to do with this fame.
Because let me tell you something, bro.
People can know you.
Being famous isn't a big deal. It can happen to anyone.
You can do anything random, and people will still recognize you.
But what will actually cover your bills
and what will truly reward you
And what will make people like you now?
because that step of fame and success and becoming known is that
when you want to get into show business
The first step is getting known.
The second step is
Being liked.
The third time is when you reach that fanatical stage.
where people can now even worship you.
People can buy from you.
So they have to know you, like you.
Then they become your fans.
But now people often confuse being known with being liked.
You have been known.
For instance, someone like
Kafefuka Zoze.
People knew her because of the song.
But it takes a little bit of consistency.
for them to like you.
You have to bring something to the table.
Steve Osimpo played it perfectly.
The man was well known because he was a Surafani.
The first thing.
But it didn't happen all the time.
He would take a picture of Surafani and post it because that's what we saw.
He started doing something about it.
He started delivering hit after hit.
He has remained consistent, and people have liked him to this day.
So people think so much
and this is
I think it's what people see.
from outside
People who are not famous from outside
assume that everyone who is famous
is rich and is successful.
So anyone
Who wants to be successful?
in that line of show business
They think that the first and the last
Step is getting known.
So they become known, then they relax.
They feel that money will come.
Not knowing that people will
Know you, but for them to like you
You have to be giving them something.
If you
You think you're funny? Then start cracking us up with some comedy.
Even this guy
called Golia
Golia was known because he was funny.
But trust me, bro, nobody likes you because you're funny.
You don't give a damn about your height.
You can be as tall as you want.
But people don't give a damn about you.
unless you are doing something about it.
You're funny.
You're funny because right now I can see it.
Are you a model?
What is it that makes you funny?
We knew you because you're funny.
We knew Kasimu because
He was very fluent.
But apart from that, you are there
dressed like you have
worn suits and the like
So I think these guys
Just waste that opportunity.
It's very rare.
It's very rare to be known.
If you are known, I can only advise you
to take that chance, sit down with people who know
because maybe you don't.
Sit down with people who know and ask them
Bro, what can I do? Because everyone
In our lives, there is usually that sober person.
I can sit with you or
You don't need to go and look for a manager.
Ask them what I can bring
the limelight now that I am in the limelight.
Or even approach certain people
the majority of these people who are successful
when I say successful I mean
success in show business
because some of them are successful in showbiz but their
My personal life is pathetic.
Let me give you a good example of people who
Became famous
I'll put "quote" in quotes
overnight
They became an internet sensation.
and boom
Up to now, they have used it.
They have a life.
Out of it, and they're doing well.
as yet
as yet when she did the Utawezana Challenge
before she did the Utawezana Challenge
Nobody knew about her.
People knew her.
She had fans.
but not as much as
the way she blew up
she was just a
She was just a TikTok celebrity.
She was not a real-life celebrity.
She was just
famous on TikTok
but she got
almost a million followers
in less than a month
if I am not mistaken
She made people join TikTok.
She became the talk of the town.
but she continued
and look at her now
no
Look at her right now
She is a radio presenter at Sound City.
Look at her right now—she is a brand ambassador.
of big even international
companies she is still working for
What made her famous?
and she is now a social media personality
She is a fashion influencer.
She's doing crazy things.
She used it really well.
Let's go to someone like Tshio Mio.
when he did
Play as you do
a verse flani
Was it Cheza like you?
Yes, it was Cheza like you.
The guy did that.
I had to remind myself of that.
The guy did that.
I knew that line.
and people said
You're trending right now.
but he got the mom
Who is the manager?
He is actually still the manager.
He did a remix with major artists.
Now he is a household name.
He's doing brands on brands.
That's another good example.
but he would have stopped at that line
I swear to another line
He would have been as stupid as a stupid boy.
He would have been another Caesar.
You know one hit one
And he got lost.
Look at Mungai Eve
Mungai Eve did content
She became famous.
right now she is still
doing her YouTube thing
She is still doing social media influencing.
She is doing everything.
She is not a good example.
She did not come out of nowhere.
Why?
You didn't just appear out of nowhere.
We worked for it
That's another example.
Look at another example
Who has received this thing?
and has been using it well
those who have been using it well
like Steve O
Steve O has been really fighting for his channel.
despite the fact that
His channels have been taken down.
His Instagram has been taken down.
The guy never gives up.
He keeps pushing.
He comes up with something new every time.
new songs every time
Just to show you guys
despite the fact that I got to know
but you know Steve O has to know
In the story of Lingugi
when he was saying that people were watching him
wondering who he was
Do you remember that story?
It was very emotional.
then they formed the handsome boys thing
He took off his shirt.
He left Made in Kibera
He went to I don't know where.
Men in Business
So you see, this guy has really been fighting.
for his space
And that is the thing
once you get that space, which is very rare
Just fight for it
because the truth is
over 95%
even 99% of us
Never get that chance
For sure, it's rare to be known, bro.
It's rare to break it.
There are people who have written more than 20 songs.
even 500
and I don't know why they are online
and other people whom I feel
Maybe they wasted their chance.
They came up with that Lambalolo.
and there was some inconsistency
and they were like
breaking out of that
moment of fame
To become household names
And then they left and messed up.
and right now they are still there
so even
Sailors Gang
What is that Rendetuy?
That Rendetuy of Abanton?
Have you heard of Abanton?
It's a good thing you've mentioned it.
because even if they don't break out
one or two people
will be successful from that group
But that's just how the world works.
I think that's how it goes.
especially in this
because what I am saying is that
and I also wanted to ask you
Do you think that in a way
lifestyle also contributes
apart from the fact that they don't take advantage of the situation
because that is undeniable
It's true that these guys
many of them when they get
They become famous, they relax.
They think fame will come with the money.
And what about those who break out?
because Stupid Boy, for instance
a good example
He also lacked consistency.
He took one hit and then thought that was enough.
rather than breaking out
It hasn't been good enough.
the fact that people haven't heard your song
It means
Sometimes people think that being consistent is breaking out.
every time
but when you break out
Even if you are consistent, you still break out.
Maybe the first one
if people saw that the first music
You put in so much effort.
You spent so much time
because a good piece of art that someone has invested time in
You can always tell just by listening.
Then after that, you start doing things
that you don't know how to do
these days the guys you listen to
Where did you go to?
You get to a place where I think they relax, they become lazy.
They just get comfortable.
and talking about comfortable
Don't you think that
Don't you think that their way of life
and I am saying that it contributes
some of them
does it mean that some of them
the things they sing
They do it.
the things they say about drugs
alcohol
drugs in general
Do you think they actually do this kind of thing?
I think they do.
because I saw Stupid Boy
I don't know if you saw that video.
He was being lazy.
Forget that, I saw he was heading to Quiver.
He was going to an event.
He said, "I am a stupid boy."
then after the event
He started flirting with girls.
That's another story.
I remember that
I was wondering
if this guy has already started destroying himself
because when you see someone doing certain things
You know this is somebody
moving towards a very long trajectory
Let me tell you one thing
that is leading nowhere but to destruction
I haven't been in the industry for the longest time.
There are so many people I have met.
There are older men I have met.
I think these are just
COVID babies
the other day when we started
The people came even earlier than that.
but there is one thing that has remained consistently unchanged
and I am going to tell anyone who is watching this
that
alcohol
hard drugs
and
irresponsible sexual behaviors
have been the biggest
destroyers
of people who could have been the biggest
celebrities here in Kenya
who could have been the biggest brands
here in Kenya
and that is no coincidence
and if you are one of them and you are using it
or are you
in this thing that I have talked about
Trust me, your success
is going to be short-lived
Maybe right now you are successful.
and you're like
I drink every day and I'm still on top.
It won't be there for long.
You can only make bad mistakes.
enough times
You can only get away with them so many times.
It gets to the point where it catches up with you.
The mistakes you know
Sometimes you make small mistakes.
You drank today
You slept late.
I'm not saying people should stop drinking.
what I am saying is
if you start making mistakes
if you are truly committed to your success
and we know about content creation
You know how engaging it is
extremely engaging
And it takes up so much time.
and when I say engaging
not just physically, but mentally as well
You need your mind and your brain
To be sharp almost all the time
You see
You don't want the story to pass.
You want to stay sharp throughout the time
Then you hear, "You slept late yesterday."
because you were busy drinking
You wake up in the morning.
hangovers
Then you shoot today but late.
So the video today, you'll post tomorrow.
then another day
During weekends, you drink a little too much.
then you are summoned for a meeting
by a client on Monday
but you couldn't hear because you slept in too late
And you overslept.
then the client gives the job to someone else
These mistakes, when you do them tomorrow.
They don't look like anything.
but they keep piling up
before you know it
when you start feeling the effect
It will be too late sometimes.
even to help yourself out of it
