Music, they say, is a universal language. No one, arguably, appreciates this more in Kenya’s vibrant hip-hop scene than rapper Vicmass Luo Dollar. In an interview with the Standard Entertainment & Lifestyle, the rapper dubbed by some as the second coming of Wicky Mosh, Gidi Gidi Maji Maji and Poxi Presha said that he finds songs in indigenous African languages therapeutic.

Vicmass explained that he found his true spirit by rapping in Dholuo and has never found any reason to go mainstream despite striking gold in Bank Otuch. He noted that he abhors being defined as a Luo musician just by virtue of birth, and, instead wants to be in the lenses of Africa as a son breathing continuity; the excellence of our own indigenous languages.
