Nice!! What inspired this initiative? it's Just another business doing and I love it because it curbs the Drinking water menace for people and I feel good about it.
Great !!! Your greatest achievement in life so far? In terms of?
Life generally , Am happy about myself ,

I studied Music for a whole year at Sauty Academy and it's one thing I can never regret .
That was a prize I received after winning a Music Competition way back in 2015 in Kibera and It gave me the Pro clique I celebrate everyday in my carrier .
I am a business man by nature ,in terms of Income Business has sustained me all along
In your darbla water supply have you employed any youths? I've employed youths before at my barbershop but #Darbla is at initial stages but that's my future plan not so far from now ,Its a major reason I'm changing carriers,to have something that doesn't strictly demand my personal presence to be operational. So is Darbla ,after this stage
So I can have more time for my music.
Tell me more about you and music... In specific ?
Since am into my new business ,to stabilize it I've held my musical moves pending for awhile but my music is my major mission in this life because through it my life counts for more others ,as well as myself.

I do some of my tunes in my vernacular Luo language to authenticate it to my African originality.
Challenges faced as an upcoming musician? I don't focus on challenges because it's not what am looking for so I can barely recall but some few I can make mention of are, one, I have a fan base but I starve them a lot in terms of backing up my multiple audios with videos.That's why am stubborn looking for ways n means of boosting my income to match their quest for more videos n audios proportionally.
Best Kenyan musician? the late Mightykingkong, Juliani , Ukoo flani, and Vernacular artists (Mandela Sarabi).
What are your goals in life? I want to be a tremendously successful business man and the most unique Reggae/Dance hall Artist in the entire World.
