Otile Brown has responded to the little drama going on between himself, actor Nick Mutuma, Kenyans and the whole of East and Central Africa population.
“Don’t confuse hype with being global my friend,” he hissed.
It’s easy to get caught up in the drama of ‘celebrity’ ‘feuds’, but sometimes it’s important to take a step back and remember that it’s all just for entertainment.
After all, who really cares about whose team you are, Otile Brown or Nick Mutuma? Or from which part of the mentioned countries you are from?
At the end of the day, they’re both just people with feelings and opinions – and they probably don’t care as much about their ‘feud’ as we do.
Anyway, these are some of the excerpts from singer Otile Brown’s page:
Some of y’all be acting like am downplaying Swahili. Lol! Swahili is my everything, it made me who I am today. Jaribu kuelewa nacho maanisha- wengi wana nia ya kushinda mjadala tu na sio kutafuta suluhu.
Don’t confuse hype with being global my friend
Go to a global platform like Spotify and see how a song like #bounce by Lexil ft. me is doing. A song which some of y’all don’t even mess with that much it has even made Lexil msanii wa juzi one of the most listened artists from the East, how? It’s the sound na kizungu kiasi kilicho tumika, ila lazima ujua kukitumia and make it relatable to our people and the world, or else you’ll sound like a wannabe coz our English so clean.

Saw Nick Mutuma saying Swahili community is about 70 Million and so, we don’t need the world and I’m like why are we even having this conversation then?
Why are y’all comparing us then coz if that’s the case then we’re doing just fine!
Why talk ish like we ain’t doing enough?Coz if we’re talking global, then we’re talking O2 arena typa ish! Ain’t talking Swahili community, and 2 or 3 African countries that messes with our music.

And I rest my case, don’t get it twisted I love, respect Swahili and I believe in it and I will give more music in Swahili. And this conversation it’s for the entire East and Central African, not Kenya alone, you’ve been programmed kuwekea Kenya lawama. If talking global, then it’s the whole of East, we got work to do.
