Comic Music now a thing and Kenyans love it

Kenyan Comedians are definitely a unique lot in the creative industry. As at now they are choosing a different niche in music for comic relief. Parody!

When I did an article on Eric Omondi being the King of Kenyan Parody, it didn’t mean he was the only one.

Music has a way to which it gets into us.It entertains,encourages and more creates an easy to cope to environment.

Parody

Well, Kenyan comedians have decided to tap on this art as they keep creating comic content using music.Mostly, as parodies. Trust Kenyans, we seem to appreciate the comic gimmicks of music more than the original versions of it.

As you ponder to understand, the point of parodies seems to be working for them.

For instance Eric Omondi takes the title of King with his versions of Extravaganza  By Sol Generation to Extrawajanja that he features fellow comedians Mulamwah, Mammito and Kartelo. Something Kenyans lauded Omondi for being keen to see others grow.

Padi Wubonn is also a Kenyan Comedian that uses parody for his skits but sadly is so underrated.He is recently did a parody of Tanzania’s Diamond Platinumz featuring Fally Ipupa’s Inama. I liked the creativity put in it.

Incorporation of Comedians to music

As time goes by , other comedians like Kartelo have managed to create a name such that recently Rico Gang featured  Kartelo in their new song Kimonyoski.

That should tell you the kind of reach Kartelo has acquired as at now. With his Sheng’ prowess it now is a thing. Clearly we live for such moments.

That aside,  Eddie Bituta of the famed Churchill Show released a song titled Kidesign. The song is a feel good song that clearly portrays the daily struggles to have a complete look, with emphasis on operating ‘kidesign”. This jam is a hit.Good Job Butita we need more juice.

This among many others, seemingly comedians are trying to use different ways to make comedy more interesting.

They are clearly working on breaking the routine stand up comedy to reach more avenues.This is something this country should be proud of now.
