Best moment on stage?
Well, I have a couple, but my most memorable was sharing a stage with American rapper Sho Baraka and to do it with my mentor MC Kibunjah. Also, sharing the stage with Pompi from Zambia was a great time! It was a Pompey Meet Pompi affair.
Worst public experience?
I was heading home from a show and felt like Rambo, so I decided to alight while the bus was still moving. I fell with a thud! Everyone in the bus and on the street laughed at me uncontrollably. Even the driver stopped the bus just so he could laugh at me, yet he is my good friend. I picked myself up and walked away.
Best hobby?
I love swimming; it relaxes me a great deal.
Worst habit
Procrastinating. I am trying to work on it though.
Best thing about being Kenyan?
We enjoy freedom of expression and are a comical lot.
Worst advice you have ever received?
Someone dear to me once told me that girls are objects that you abuse and leave. Of course, I now know better than to listen to those kinds of sentiments.
Best thing about being an MC?
I get to see people happy and enjoying the moment. I also love interacting with different people and experience diverse cultures. In the long run, I use my talent for God’s glory.
Lowest moment this year?
In the beginning of the year, I had self-esteem issues. I thank God I got out of the funk though.
Worst experience while emceeing?
I once fell on stage during my introduction to the audience. To make matters worse, just before the end of the performance, I tore my trousers.
Worst place you have been to?
A police cell. Next time I will tell you why I was arrested (laughs). But that place, the people you meet inside those walls and the environment is distasteful. It was not interesting at all.
If you were to come back as a car, what would it be and why?
I’d be a Rolls-Royce Phantom. It is a great car and it makes a statement just by the looks making it a big deal, no pun intended.
