Remember When? This is the very First Time Kenyan Artists were airlifted to Perform in the US (PHOTO)

 

They say memories are made of bliss; sure they are! While doing rounds on Facebook I came across this old photo of the first ever batch of Kenyan artists to perform in the US, a trip made possible by Jojo Kilimanjaro, a promoter of Kenyan, African and Reggae events and concerts in Minnesota and North America.

This was back in 2003 at Atlanta airport with Redsan, Mr Googz and Vinnie Banton of Wasee wa Githurai fame. This is when every Kenyan in the US went to Atlanta for Thanksgiving and Ogopa Deejays were the Kenyan music gods then.

This is also the very first time artists were flown in from Kenya to perform in the US. Take a look;

Memories are made of this.
