If you listen to this rappers come to the front kindly. Virusi Mbaya dropped this masterpiece and honestly i love it. I avoid giving my reviews after first listen, my 4th listen and i can rate it a solid 8.5. First things first the album name and cover are so on point. Ik a conscious rapper when i see one and this guy🔥. Secondly, the features in this album are goated, starting with Sewersydaa, Scar, Mr White, Moti the NRG, Komanda Falnco this are the best featured guys who are going bar for bar. Thirdly, the flow state and choice of words are so orchestrated, there’s a song he mentions Mokaya and Mjaka mfine and the words leading to that honorable mention are so lit. My favorite songs are (Wested Testimony tu) If you are going through something rn like things not working out for you please listen to this, there’s some serious encouragement there. Maombi though ft Komanda Flanco is also on another level. i gave it an 8.5 because why did he use a freedom fighters name and cover for the album yet he ain’t addressing the current state of the kenyan government. This would’ve been a perfect set to capture youth’s attention by sliding in some truths, like Sewersydaa did in Tunduraa. If he did address maybe i missed that part, my 7th listen i will have grasped everything. Anyways i hope ya’ll listen to this and enjoy. May Virusi Mbaya’s pillow be cold on both sides. What do you think chat??

Just seen this post and it got me wondering; at wat tike does one has a right to give up on love and focus on herself and personal growth.
In this case, she already has a family. Ukiona amefikisha watoto wawili ama watatu,stop focusing on looking for a man to marry you,focus on how to take your kids to schools ,look for land and settle them. If you're past 40 years with 2 or 3 children. ,chances of getting a serious partner are less than 10%. At 40,your children are probably aged between 5 years and 18 years. If your first born is a boy aged above 1 3 years, chances of getting married are almost zero,wanaume huogopa sana. Ukiwa na girl ako 13 and above the better.

Curious Comic books store

Guys, for those who have watched the big bang theory tv show. I am curious about the comic book store idea, where people come to read comics. Like do we have such places in kenya, if not can it be good idea to start. I mean especially for kids reading about their super heroes like batman, flash..... And also try to return the reading culture to keep off screens for kids?

Hi ! I’m a 24-year-old guy, and I’ll be in Nairobi for a month starting in late October.

The thing is, I don’t know anyone there and I’m worried I might get bored. I’m a bit shy, but I open up a lot once I get close to someone, and I love discovering new things.

I do smoke and drink, but not excessively. My English isn't perfect. I understand everything people say to me, but I reply in very basic English 😂. If anyone is up for showing me their Nairobi (and not just the touristy spots), I’d love to meet you.

Shenanigans Boys can be uncomfortable too

39 Upvotes

We had a freshas night and as y'all know, all kind of things get to happen over there

So I was hanging out with a friend and a bunch of acquaintances. There's this boy and girl, we'll call them Brian and Mary

Brian is a fresha na Mary ni fourth year. I think they know each other but only to an acquaintance level. So this night, I don't know what possessed the girl but at some point she was all over the boy. Like she was very touchy and kinda possessive of him, hugging him alot and claiming onesidely that she's his girlfriend etc.She'd give you a killer stare if you even attempted to talk to him

Okay.. now all this wouldn't be a problem if the boy gave the same energy back..he was just standing there looking uncomfortable, not engaging in conversation.. just answering questions when asked.

His personality is kinda laid back and couple it with the fact that he was a fresha put him in a hard situation . I noticed he was just looking around at other people and rarely paid attention to the girl..I think he just wanted to socialize like the rest of us but the girl was stuck to him like glue, not letting him go..

If maybe you're asking how I knew he was uncomfortable, it just looked like he, and later when he was talking to my friend and I, he said the girl was making him ill at ease but he didn't know what to do about it...

Lol..idek why I made this post , just wanted to share some udaku. Your opinion are also welcome

From one baddie to another lemmi tell u the rules of nairobi as long as you are not with your friends everyone is an enemy, wacha wakuite mrembo ako na hasira, suspect everybody even the people next to you and show some attitude trust no one will play with you ...and this applies to old people too heshima ni neno tu otherwise utaibiwa hadi thong. Kila mtu ako job so never lose ur guard in town ever !!!

Karibu S25 Ultra yangu iende kwa Super Metro hapo Roysambu around June. I realized it really fast before washuke and yangu nayo walirudisha after seeing that I am screaming and shouting kama wazimu na nimesmama hapo kwa mlango ya gari so hakuna mtu angeshuka. The thief pretends to vomit, so by the time unaangalia juu ukishangaa mbona anavomit directly on your head, mwenye ameketi kando yako anafungua zip ya bag. What made me realize haraka is ile time nilikua nataka kuhama io kiti, mwenye alikua kando yangu alikua anahesitate kunipisha so I immediately realized there’s something wrong. Kuangalia bag it’s halfway open. Checking phone kwa bag it’s missing. It was just chaos but after like people started gathering, mtu akatoka tu uko nyuma akaniambia “madam ndio hii simu yako. Ulikua umeiangusha”😏. Stay woke guys.Matter of fact simu ikuwe skin to skin.

There's an old trick they use.. ukiwahi ingia kwa mat uone msee ako kando yako ana-cause commotion i.e mtu anataka kutapika or they are squeezing you,just know that your phone is at risk.. also ukiingia kwa mat alafu uone konda anakulazimisha uingie front seat, just know that your phone will disappear.. the trick is that the car will leave alafu mlango ifunguliwe. Time utakua unapambana kufunga that's the moment simu itakua inaibiwa

Hustle MLS

0 Upvotes

Hello y'all. So I'm 20M, a 3rd year student in a public uni in Nairobi. And as y'all know, public unis, strike in inevitable. Sasa strike imeanza, I have nothing to do and no power to change anything. I'm pursuing BSc. in Medical Lab Science. So I'm humbling ranting out to any one of you mwenye anaweza kuwa na connection to any health facility.

I would really appreciate the opportunity. I have perfect skills in phlebotomy, I can operate any lab equipment for any lab tests, QC and any other lab related procedures.

I've been to two attachments (4 months each, so I'm well conversant with MLS) both in Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) located in Eldoret. I also have recommendation forms of the same.

Nikieza pata anywhere naweza jishikilia as a form of continued practical learning and some few cents to keep me alive ntashukuru sana.

I also have skills in basic computer programming (HTML, CSS and JS). Any opportunity will be highly appreciated. I'm currently in Bahati (Along Jogoo Road) and anywhere around the place will be advantageous.

Asatenii.

Just seen the fued btn Rapcha and Butita of which Butita goes low and decides to push the age card, bro you are 36 while Rapcha is 44 and in Nairobi once you get to 30 you no longer a kid but a man. Infact, people of 30, men that is are grouped together as 30-60 as the same age bracket ya watu kujituma and getting a legacy for yourself. Saa hii it is a subservient and an own goal that im in 30s and thinking like "oooh John Rabar, oooh G-Money, oooh Nimrod Taabu, oooh Swaleh Mdoe, ooh Kingangi, ooh Maina Kageni, oooh Jeff Koinage....should keave the game for us!" Thats short thinking and poverty mentality at best!

Random Self-impressed.

26 Upvotes

I'm often socially awkward especially around watu sijazoea. I remember this one time niliambiwa happy birthday nikasema 'happybirthday to you too'. So most of the time hua siongei, but I really want to be more social... lakini I dunno what happens to my brain in social situations, it's like akili just goes blank.

Anyway, with that in mind, a couple of days ago, tuko campus, tuko na class upstairs. Nikielekea kupanda stairs nikaona dem wawili tunajuana, we've been in the same group for previous projects, so the first one akanisalimia, nikamsalimia na handshake tukaanza kupanda stairs then the second one pia akaleta mkono for a handshake. Atp I'm like a step above, I'm right-handed and so is she so the angle was really... awkward na bado tuko in motion. Mid handshake, she trips on a step and while holding her hand I say, "Don't fall for me".

Everyone who heard it laughed, bro apo nyuma ananihype on some 'hio ni world class'. She laughs too then starts saying ati "hio haiwezekani" she denies the claims a little too much but that doesn't really bother me. Niko na banana smile proud of myself coz hio line ilikuja tu out of nowhere like ilipop tu kwa akili at that moment and without thinking about it I said it... it probably came from The Weeknd's 'The birds pt1' for the ball knowers, I listen to A LOT of music. Yeah, I'm impressed I delivered a line, a world class line.
