Rapper Nyashinski became the centre of attention at a high-profile wedding in Kiambu County after delivering an energetic live performance that got guests on their feet.
Videos shared online showed the musician dancing smoothly with the newlyweds, leaving many fans excited on social media.
The wedding was for Tracy, daughter of former Cabinet Secretary Charles Keter, and her groom, Robin Bett.
The ceremony took place on Friday, in a beautifully decorated indoor hall with chandeliers and greenery.
Nyashinski, dressed in a brown suit, black shirt, and tie, performed at the reception and joined Tracy and Robin on the dance floor.
The groom wore a black tuxedo with a bow tie, while the bride looked elegant in a white gown.
Guests cheered as the three danced together, creating one of the most memorable moments of the celebration.
The event also attracted several well-known political leaders, including Nakuru Governor Susan Kihika, Senator Aaron Cheruiyot, Nelson Koech, and ODM politician Opiyo Wandayi.
Despite the presence of many prominent guests, it was Nyashinski’s performance and dance moves that quickly spread across social media.
Nyashinski, whose real name is Nyamari Ongegu, is one of Kenya’s most respected musicians.
He first became famous as a member of the hip-hop group Kleptomaniax, which he formed in 1999 with Roba and Collo while they were students at Nairobi School.
After the group’s early success, Nyashinski moved to the United States, where he lived in Delaware and worked as a truck driver for about ten years.
He returned to Kenya in 2016 and restarted his music career as a solo artist.
His comeback was highly successful. He released popular songs such as “Mungu Pekee” and “Malaika,” and later released his first solo album, Lucky You, in 2020.
His ability to blend rap, singing, and meaningful storytelling has helped him remain a major name in Kenyan and East African music.
Nyashinski is married to fashion designer Zia Jepkemei Bett. The couple held a traditional wedding in Nandi County in November 2019, followed by a private church wedding at Nairobi Chapel in December 2021.
The two are known for keeping their family life mostly private, even though Nyashinski is a public figure.
They have children together, and the singer often speaks about the importance of personal growth, family, and building a lasting legacy through music.
