True since KTN was available in Nairobi only and their UHF Signal was great. Then came the birth of tv boosters example ( nippon America). That’s how some of us are able to follow and relate his and our music journey.If he only knew how God used him to impact Kenya 🇰🇪 music Industry. Thanks. Tell Baba Lucas you will hide his face (Ogopa Dj’s)

🎉 this is when my love for RnB and Rap started.

21:42 This is the beauty of Intellectual Property Management. Protecting intellectual property can lead to financial benefits for creatives. By controlling the use and distribution of their works, they can negotiate licensing agreements, secure royalties, and receive compensation for authorized use. This can contribute to their income and financial stability. How I wish we would experience the same in the Kenyan Music Industry...I believe we can follow in the footsteps of the US, UK, and South Africa
