    Dive into the Rhythmic Journey of Mr. Lenny on CTA - Cleaning The Airwaves! 🇰🇪
    Uncover the musical tapestry woven by Kenyan Afro-Hip Hop artist Lenson Njuki Wang’ang’a, widely known as Mr. Lenny, since his debut in 2000. Introduced to the world of music by his friend and early collaborator Nelson kiama aka Dr. Paper, Mr. Lenny officially embarked on his musical odyssey under the Sratch Records label where they released their first single, "Daddy Has To Know". In the quest to share new and unconventional sounds, Lenny faced the challenge of finding studios willing to record his unique style. The turning point came at Entertainment with a Difference (EWD), owned by Jimmy, where he recorded the breakout single 'MCs.' Collaborations with Mr. Googz and Vinny Banton on the remix of 'Githurai' not only propelled Lenny's career but also reintroduced him to Ogopa DJ, connecting him with musicians across East Africa.
    Building on this momentum, Lenny established a fruitful partnership with Kunguru, resulting in hits like 'African Woman' and 'Baby Don’t Go Away.' Collaborating with the late E-sir on 'Kamata,' Lenny also delved into independent projects, releasing the single 'Cash Money.' The Kenyan music scene witnessed Lenny's meteoric rise as he, along with fellow artists, toured East Africa and various European nations to showcase the richness of Kenyan music. After a hiatus in 2007 for business ventures, Lenny made a triumphant return in 2018 with 'Randa Randa' at Grandpa Records. Currently working with different producers on his second album, Mr. Lenny has rekindled his presence in the live music scene, gracing notable events like the GoDown Gig and PRC concerts.

    Mr. Lenny lived in my hood... Very humble guy... Cash money song wacha tu... My daughter eat enough lollipops from Mr Lenny. She would spot him and scream to the top her voice and sing cash money nimezota ni nataka pesa pesa.... Lollipop 🍭 Mr Lenny anamnunulia.

    Man, it's making me quite emotional remembering how my pals in high school used to hate on Kenyan artists while there was just a handful of us who liked it and understood that these guys were trying the best they could. At least this series shows people how the men in the arena really go through it trying to bring change to the world

      Reasons
      1.kenyans are stupid and lazy ..we don't want to be competence
      2.periodic stealing of our money by mount kenya people
      3. The world current economy is bad ..so the first economic countries have to heal first for them to give us more loans
      4 religion
      5.education system is useless

    I was under the impression that akina Mr. Lenny and other Ogopa artists were living the life. In videos and in person they looked so fresh and so clean. My friends and I wanted to be like them. So hearing that Nimesota was from his real life experience is shocking.

    Yo Richie, put together a campaign. Let's get Lucas on here.
    Maybe try opening a payment run - if guys want Lucas, guys changa. Weka hurdle target _ if donations get above X, you approach him, and offer him the chumz_ people will have voted with their wallet _ if he takes great, if not channel keeps it or returns it or whatever, you'd figure it out. Hope this contributes to the idea pool

    • @cta101
      @cta101  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      Unfortunately, that's not how CTA works... Lucas has to come when he is ready. I myself do not want him to come until he is ready to come. So we patiently wait... otherwise he'll come here and share juu juu. I want the details, and A LOT of these things only he knows... so until he is ready to come. We patiently wait. Doing it for chumz is wack! He needs to do from the right posture... and that's a posture of giving of his life experience for the sake of benefiting a generation to come.
