Sauti Sol taunts Ezekiel Mutua as ‘Melanin’ garners 1 million views in just 5 days

Ezekiel Mutua’s ban on Sauti Sol has turned out to be more of a blessing than a curse. The song has been trending first on YouTube ever since the moral police termed it as outright pornographic.

KFCB boss Ezekiel Mutua slapped Sauti Sol with watershed period ban on Thursday November 23rd. ‘Melanin’ will not be played on TV during the watershed period which runs from 5am to 10pm.

The moral cop says Sauti Sol is full of nudity and also objectifies women under the guise of black beauty. KFCB wrote to Sauti Sol to submit the video for examination and classification for age suitability.
