CHUO RECORDS introduces you to each of the artists who were behind the #StateofAffairs song before its release on 1st August. Next in line is Monaja.
Monaja is a performing and recording artist who makes music to add value to people's lives. Previously a poet, he performed as a freestyler, a Spoken word poet and an emcee for 7 years before releasing his Kina Go Down Mixtape 4in 2010 which received positive reviews especially among Kenyan Hip Hop heads and poetry fans. Monaja released a number of singles between 2011 and 2015 as he worked as a researcher and part-time History lecturer in Machakos University College (now University). Some of these singles were featured in his recently released and well received TemaImba mixtape which saw him come up with a distinctive style - TemaImba music - a style of music that fuses rap and rhythmic singing.
