Kenyans on social media are once again abuzz with debate over controversial gospel singer Christopher Mosioma, better known as Embarambamba, following the release of his latest song.
The singer, hailing from the Kisii region, recently shared a snippet of his new track titled “Nataka Kupupu,” in which he confesses his sins and seeks repentance.
In the video, Embarambamba is seen kneeling before an altar in a church, clutching a Bible and a Kenyan flag. His lyrics express a deep sense of guilt and a plea for divine assistance:
“And in front of you Father, I have sinned (x3), and I will want it before your face (x2). I want to die (x2), I want to die (sin) (x4), I am burdened by sin, oh God help me (x2),” Embarambamba sings passionately in the video clip, heralding it as a new gospel hit soon to be released.
The word “kupupu” is a slang term widely used in Kenya to mean defecating, adding a layer of controversy to the song’s title and lyrics.
Reactions on social media have been mixed. While some Kenyans criticize the song for its unconventional and provocative approach, others find humor in it, and a few defend Embarambamba’s creative expression and the message of repentance.
Comments on platforms like Twitter and Facebook reflect the divided opinions.
Embarambamba’s unique style and bold approach have consistently drawn attention, often sparking debate and controversy. Whether loved or criticized, his ability to provoke conversation remains undisputed.
As the discussion continues, many are curious to see how the full song will be received once it is officially released. Embarambamba’s unconventional approach to gospel music continues to push boundaries, challenging traditional norms and evoking a wide range of reactions.
