Musyoka has been hard at work lately considering his Shop – Decimal Media has quite abit of talent to work on, Musyoka produces for the whose who market in Kenya. Nikki, PUnit, Nameless, Klear Kut, Peter Miles, Ukoo Fulani the list would be too long to publish here. However he also works on exclusive deals such as this one – to my understanding he is working on Julianis album titled – Mtaa Mentality.
This track is the single off that album, although there have been other tracks flying around the airwaves and the internet. This here is the exclusive never heard before and only available (well for now – on GetMziki, which is why we put the Exclusive next to the track and our star rating system). Truthfully the first week I got the track I had to put it on heavy rotation and then let it chill for a few days. The reason I did this is to better understand where this GOSPEL music is going. I am increasingly getting disturbed. Its either I am having a hard time embracing this new genre or I am having a harder time accepting the fact that Gospel music can be funky.
Gospel music in Kenya to me seems to be a fad, I personally think its something new, something that seems to be generating some traction and revenue for a few people and therefore means many people can capitalize on this market. Honestly Ive never recieved or heard so much music in my life – Over the last 8 months I cant even remember the artists names. I mean just take a quick glance at Kenyan Gospel – http://www.kenyangospel.com/. And tell me what you think.
Anyway let me relax – This track is fire… Musyoka as usual doesn’t disappoint, but am so conflicted will I listen to this track in a club, with a heineken in my hand??? you know I compare these artists to the Kirk Franklin’s of the US… Although personally I adore and listen to the Marvin Sapp’s of this world, Marvin’s album is on heavy rotation on my ipod – but see Marvin Sapp is not anything you listen to and want to dance, its music you listen to and want to go to church… maybe am just a conflicted soul – 
Enjoy the track here

ay juliani is deep… i love this cut..
and like you leo i’m not feeling this whole gospel “movement”. wakenya tuko overly religious and kusota plus PEV did not help the situation. hizi ngoma mafala watadance on sunday wahappy lakini utachezaje ngoma ya church sato usiku kwa club..
ebu skiza your boy dj dona’s mixtape, ngoma ishapanda kidogo kidogo unasikia halleluyah sijui i’m not goin out tonight.. that was such an anticlimax ikabidi nimedelete sections of the mix aargh!
The album is available on iTunes..support the industry, buy it.Trust me its worth every single cent/penny.
And ati Gospel music, a fad??Where have y’all been living?If you open your eyes and get out of your comfort zone I’m sure you’ll realize that gospel music most certainly is not a fad.
Its been around and it’ll be around, if you don’t want to embrace it the choice is yours but don’t go acting as if someone’s trying to shove it down your throat.
For those open to new things you can check out his video for Hela..
I strongly advice you to start watching from the 1st min..there’s some hideously long and boring monologue at the beginning by someone whose voice was cetainly not meant for radio..other than that enjoy Juliani’s lyrical prowess

hahahahhah “Ati kenyan gospel is a fad?” that is the silliest statement ive heard this week. Pound by Pound this is one of the best songs posted on this website! Lets be honest here, the gospel industry is so diverse and the talent is just out of this world and i back those words with two links!

They are lyricist and OMG am not the most religious person but each time i listen to them i get inspired so a fad? No i think we should be open to different sounds and messages! so i finish with that ‘a fad’ comment is just silly!
