There are so many challenges facing musicians in Kenya. Apart from living fake lives, there’s too much expectations from friends and loved ones or even fans who expect one to have a given character.

Many musicians don’t have real friends as many come because of fame and thus has caused many to be abandoned when they run bankrupt.
