Who knew that this pretty lady who once sang about falling in love with a “shamba boy” would soon be converting lives, singing and preaching the gospel?

Well, size 8 became the first artiste to conquer all odds by giving up her lucrative career in the secular world for the gospel.

Having been spotted by Clemmo of Calif Records back in the day during an audition, Size 8 went ahead to kick start her career at Calif Records. As he musical career grew, Size 8 kept rising the ranks in Kenyan musical industry.

But besides her vocal prowess, Size 8’s dance moves were off the hook. Most of her fans eagerly waited for her concert just to see how hard she would dance each time.

Her Safaricom live tours evidently marked the peak of her career, but even with top brand endorsements and accolades to her name, she felt that something was missing.

That was when she reconciled her moves and crossed over to the gospel industry.

One would have thought that she would rebrand herself and perhaps change her name, but No! She needed to tell the world of her transformation and that is why her first gospel song was dubbed “mateke.”

Aside from the music and sideshow, Linet who was born into a spiritual background is also the lovely wife to DJ Mo one of Kenya’s finest in the gospel, and he evidently came in handy in her transition.

Even in the gospel scene Size 8 is vocal and goes on bring about positive change in the quest to convert more souls to Christ.

Additionally, her award winning “mateke” have seen her trend for days and what many may not know is that she is well versed in the Bible. For these outstanding reasons, she takes our Woman Crush title today.
