Rapper Kristoff bounces back with another jam ahead of US tour

Rapper Kristoff, also referred to as 'Mluhya wa Busia,' has lived up to his promise by featuring in yet another single just five months after he rocked the airwaves with 'Big Man Party', a song which reintroduced him to the market after a long US hiatus.

The lyrically-endowed rapper, who also fuses singing alongside his fiery rhyme scheme, has now been featured in a new single alongside label mate and close musical associate Dogo Skillz.

The dreadlocked heartthrob's sleek vocals can be heard on Skillz' 'Light The Roof', a song which celebrates life, toasts to the good life and dabbles into carefree excessiveness and beautiful girls.

‘Light the Roof' is a colorful and uplifting addition to Kristoff's discography that displays his artistic prowess and dedication to expanding the boundaries of Kenyan music.

The song’s catchy beat, provocative lyrics, and engaging production will sure make it an instant smash that is sure to connect with both existing fans and new listeners.

Produced by legendary producer Magix Enga, the song embodies sonic influences which betray Kristoff's wide exposure, refined rap excellence and mastery grasp on pop music.

The jam was first performed by Dogo Skillz at the Gemini Lounge, Nairobi, on Thursday night where the young musical shot caller performed to an enthralled audience, premiering the song for the first time since its release.

Absent from the performance was Kristoff, who is now on yet another tour of the US at the invitation of his label CMG Records.

In the US, Kristoff is slated to perform at several stops in a tour aimed at further promoting his 2023 releases as well as boosting the CMG Records' visibility on the international front.

The Records' honcho Stephen Desmond Aoll popularly known as Dezz, said that there are many more projects planned for release as he welcomed his signee with pomp and glamor.

"We've got a lot more in store. This Dogo Skillz collaboration is just one of the many projects we have in store. Kristoff promised that this would be a busy year and as you can see, we're not sleeping. We're fully in business. Watch this space," he said.

Dezz's upcoming musical forays coincide with his luxurious 'Labor Of Love' All White Cruise party which snaked across the New York City waters with music, champagne and scrumptious food.

The cruise, courtesy of Jahazi Entertainment CEO Jere wa Wallstreet, also one of the minds behind the KWITU group, has been shaking up the entertainment sector and is slated to host more of such shows.

With music by popular Kenyan DJ Shinski, the 'Labour of Love' featured an eclectic mix of opulence, new-money flamboyance and warm camaraderie expanding over 48 hours.

"This was actually my first such trip to support the promoters and wow, what an experience! It was an otherworldly experience - just being up there with all those good vibes, beautiful people, creative minds and fun crew! Absolutely worth it!" he said.
