This week's episode kicks off with an update on the William Getumbe vs. Kenya Film Classification Board case, where his song remains banned (7:48). Then, we dive into a conversation sparked by rapper Wangeci’s recent tweet hinting at a "Diddy of Kenya" in the industry (15:24). Next up, Blankets & Wine goes international with a show in the UK. We explore what this means in the context of ongoing conversations around Kenya’s event scene (27:00). We also touch on a few other topics, including a past RIKE workshop, an upcoming journalism writing one (36:12), and wrap it up with some new music reviews (42:37).
