The Safaricom sponsored Groove Awards went down heavy Tuesday night at the Kenya National Theatre. This must have surprised many people but not me, the missing of the ‘top’ ‘gospel’ musicians like Bahati and willy Paul in the nomination list.
Groove must have gotten tired with the two, but truth is Willy Paul is still the kid to oust, he’s madly talented but lacks a team that can tame his ego and childish ways.
