MCSK boss Ezekiel Mutua has broken silence on antics displayed by Kisii gospel Musician Embarambamba.
This is after he released a song titled “Tuko Uji Mble Za Mungu”
In the song, a fully dressed Embarambamba is captured bathing in a what seems like a stream. He strips and eventually is left covering his nakedness with a yellow piece of cloth.
While he noted that his hands are tied on dealing with such content, Mutua however said that the country needs such people because the country doesn’t value clean content.
According to him, religious leaders and churches are watching silently, without taking actions, to control such characters.
“I have seen people tagging me on the Embarambara madness and other such stuff on social media. Kenyans, my mandate is no longer regulation. KFCB is the body mandated by law to vet and classify content.
“However, I actually believe that Kenya deserves Embarambara. We do not value clean content. We don’t seem to care even when the content is blasphemous. Churches and community leaders are quiet when such content is on the increase. I wish these artists can even strip naked and perform in church as such until they prick our conscience,” Mutua shared on X.
Embarambamba was recently joined by an Eldoret-based gospel singer William Getumbe, in singing absurd gospel songs.
Getumbe released a gospel song titled ‘Yesu Ninyandue’ that left Kenyans talking, while others condemned him for bein blasphemous.
“Nyandua has many meanings. It is slang, but Kenyans have sexualised its connotation. Music often employs indirect language as a form of creativity. In my song, I was petitioning God for elevation. Even Jesus, in his teachings, didn’t reveal everything openly,” Getumbe addressed his viral song.
“I know Kenyans are not happy about my song and it has elicited various reactions. You expect different reactions from people. Insults have been plentiful, but I’m not affected by them. Kenya is 80% Christian, so if they disagree with my song, then there’s no need for insults,” he added
