We all think some of this celebs emerged from thin air. Or sometimes thats what my mind tells me whenever i see Rihanna. Guess what, they have quite interesting histories…no, i meant pretty hilarious histories.
As I watched Jimmy Gathu’s hiphop song Stay Alive I couldn’t help but laugh. Wait, you also had no idea Jimmy Gathu had a video, right? In the 90s this guy was a music composer. He had a group called Mbalamwezi with which he sang his rhymes with.
Today he boasts as the presenter to host first breakfast show, to hosting President Kenyatta in the most unconventional, funny way- sheng. Oh should i mention the Mpango wa kando campaign,cause he killed it.
I assure you, the classy, shengy, official-dressed TV host Gathu that we know of today, ametoka mbali.
