Kenyan hip hop rapper G rongi has revealed that Tanzanian artists such as Ray C and Mangwair got him to sink in deeper into drug addiction that almost killed his rap career.

G rongi who is now based in Paris , France says he lost everything he had and ended up roaming the streets as a homeless person in Mathare. It was then that his family traced him and took him to rehab.

The rapper who was speaking to Mzazi Willy M Tuva's Girongi revealed that he was in the same drug rings with the late Mangwair just one year before the Tanzanian rapper died. "I did drugs with big Tanzanian artists the likes of Ray C and rapper Mangwair who were all heavy consumers of hard drugs" adding that he was really affected when he learnt of his death.

G rongi now makes two the number of artists who have emerged from the dark past of drug addiction from the same drug ring. Ray C who was in the same crew recently left the rehab and has since started a foundation dealing with drug abuse.

The Fyatua rapper will be launching his new video "Mukurino" which is a kikuyu term that loosely translates to "who is the savior". According to G rongi the song is meant to provoke thoughts of people stuck in various predicaments, that they are their own saviors.

The Dandora bred rapper also revealed that he would jet back into the country in February 2015 to launch his album which he is going back to finalise in Paris

 NONINI – THE ARTISTE
Born Hubert Nakitare in October 1982 in Nairobi’s California Estate in Eastlands, the young Nonini caught the ‘freestyling’ bug in 1999 like many other of his peers when Urban Kenyan Music was kicking in. A friend and fellow MC (T.I.T.O.) introduced him to Clement Rapudo and Paul Nunda, better known as Clemo (the producer) and Juacali (the artiste) and together they began the ‘Genge (Mass Music) Revolution’.
Like many other MC’s in the industry, Nonini represents Genge! Genge is a Swahili word meaning ‘masses’ thus his music is basically ‘Music for the Masses’. His music uses a raw format of slanguistic Swahili known as sheng which is quite understood in the Kenyan streets. Nonini is instrumental in the articulation of a subculture that is not openly spoken about in the past
Entrepreneurship has always been in Nonini’s blood. He owns a clothing line called Nonini Wear and a Video Production Agency called Pro Habo.
Nonini is currently a free lance artiste, recording music in the different production houses and recording studios as he feels fit for any particular song he does. He released his first album in 2005, and is now ready with his second album. His musical journey follows…
Nonini
NONINI IN-DEPTH
Hubert Nakitare, more popularly known as Nonini is undeniably one of Kenya’s most successful, prominent and most importantly, INFLUENTIAL solo urban artistes in the Kenyan Music Industry at this very moment.
His influence is quite obvious, what with the elicited responses and discussions that stem from every time he releases any song / video to the public. He has always been, and will most likely continue to be a controversial figure in Kenya’s Urban Music Industry. The reactions of his fans and all alike make for quite a considerable amount of ‘talk’, and this ranges almost across the age bracket. His strongest and ardent fans seem to range from 14 – 30 years, with an obvious spill-over both ways. Interestingly enough, quite a majority of his fans are female, and this could be due to the fact that as bold as he is, he touches them somewhere deep down REALISTICALLY.
Talk among his peers and especially some ‘industry insiders and heavyweights’ reveal that one of the strong reasons for Nonini being a top notch artiste is the realness in him. A critical look at his peers in the industry reveals that while most of them (his peers) struggle to portray an image of ‘hardcore, hard life’, etc, they seem ‘plastic’. Nonini was rated as the one Kenyan artiste who invokes his lifestyle and that of his friends and neighbors through his music. There is no exaggeration about him. It’s all REAL; his language, his behavior, his lyrics, his ordeals, etc. It all comes from his heart.

Nicki Minaj amezungumza na kituo cha radio Hot 97 cha Marekani Jumatatu (August 4) na kuelezea jinsi Beyonce alivyomtafuta na kumuomba amshirikishe katika ‘Flawless Remix’.
Nicki+Minaj+2014+MTV+Movie+Awards+Arrivals+w_87YVUMELDl
Minaj amesema kuwa alipigiwa simu na kupewa taarifa kuwa Beyonce anataka kumshirikisha kwenye ‘Flawless Remix’ kama mwezi mmoja au miwili iliyopita, na baadae akamtumia wimbo na kumsisitiza afunguke bila kuogopa, na kweli tumeona amefunguka kiasi mpaka Lil Kim kashindwa kuvumilia na kujibu.
Haya ndio maelezo ya Minaj jinsi ilivyokuwa:
“A month or two ago, Gee [Roberson] called me when I was on my way to Vegas and said, ‘Beyoncé wants you to remix to ‘Flawless. She sent me a version that she wanted. She told me, ‘I want you to be you. I don’t want you to hold back. I said, ‘You sure?’
She said, ‘Yeah. I want you to be you and do you. I was actually in New York writing the verse. I recorded the verse in New York and she stopped by the studio. She was such a sweetheart. She was hyping me up, ‘Do your thing. Don’t hold back. Go in.’ I was like, ‘Okay. Alright.”
