A. Gengetone which evolved from Genge-rap, a musical style incredibly popular in the 2000s in Kenya. It blends rap with reggaetón and dancehall infusions resulting in a high-energy and dance-ready sound. The music is also characterized by its explicit lyrics and commentary that reflect the current lifestyle of the ‘hood’ experience, usually rapped or sung in “sheng”.

A. I actually can’t tell between ‘’Bomb ya Saddam’’ and ‘’Form’’ which is my best song. Let me just say Both are my best songs so far.

A. Form is one the songs that has put me in the limelight. Everyone was raving about Trio, so my manager reached out to his team. A month later, I sent my verses, we vibed and recorded the song. He is such a talented artiste, from how he writes his bars to his flow. Before even releasing the song, we were already jamming to it the studio.
