Kwani? Open Mic, Aug 2 2011 @ Club Soundd
Kwani Trust is inviting you to Kwani? Open Mic on Tuesday 2nd August 2011 7pm at Club Soundd, Hamilton House Kaunda Street.
Featured Poet will be Jemedari
Featured Artist will be Masanduku Junior.
Jemedari is an artist who has been described as a child of two worlds, delving in both hip hop and written poetry. Having laid stakes in both categories, he strives to raise the bar in terms of performance, content and impact. His alias being the ‘general,’ he molds and morphs his act to best suit the audience and ambiance of any event, be it a hardcore hip hop environment or a high end function. Jemedari’s music is enjoyed by Kenyans young and old, with conscious, relevant lyrics that incorporate the context of his times.
His end game is to start a mentorship program through which talented youth with no avenue to make their talent work for them can be guided by those who have already carved a niche for themselves in the entertainment industry.
He has graced several stages, including Slam Africa, Flowetree, Wamathai Poetry nights, and Discovery Poetry with Sitawa.

Venue: Club Soundd.
Entry: 100 Ksh.
Monaja
Monaja has gone from living abroad to adjusting to Nairobi life then readjusting to the countryside. He cites culture shock as a significant influence on his unorthodox musical style. “I think I’ve picked up a lot from the places I’ve grown up in, that’s why my music is very content-oriented and twisted.”
He grew up in Langata where his love for music blossomed, playing the piano while listening to musical greats like Dabrat, Shaggy, Fugees, Nas, Bone thugs ‘n’ harmony and Lost Boyz. Locally, he listened to Eric Wainaina, Shades ‘o’ Black and Poxi Presha.
He claims K-south Flava as his greatest musical influence.
He began performing in 2004 and went on to doing free shows at Florida 2000 and Club Skiliza in 2005, in Nairobi.
Monaja also hosts Nairobi’s Finest” every last Friday of the month at Dass restaurant.

His style is heavily biased towards hiphop.
