Johnny Vigeti is one respected rapper in the Kenyan rap scene, I mean there’s no other Kenyan rapper who commands respect than the one and only Johnny Vigeti who is a former member of Kalamashaka.
If there’s a true definition of a Kenyan OG both in the streets and in music, it has to be Johnny Vigeti without any arguments whatsoever, better ask somebody to ask anyone to corroborate this as a Kenyan hip hop fact.
Johnny Vigeti is finally back after taking an impromptu 2 years-long hiatus with his recent release being ‘Bonga Mob’ which was released two years ago.
Coming back as impromptu as he left the scene, the rapper who has been all over the globe visiting African countries predominantly working on his ‘The Shingalava Story’ which he has promised it will be out soon, real soon.
“How can I come home without releasing a song for y’all that support me in al kind of weather?? I can’t, really, I can’t. I am back to release my first album.
Yes, the last album was a mixtape. Now it’s time for the real deal.” Jonny Vigeti said in part on his social media post.
Jumping on Notorious B.I.G record ‘Juice’ beats, Johnny Vigeti gives his fans what they have been waiting on for years, actually two years since he took his hiatus, nothing but the best lyrics, powerful punchlines and real-life lessons on his records.
“But if you missed me, here is a one-take straight from my head. Just had to bring y’all back before I start the new era Msenge!!!” Johnny Vigeti on introducing his ‘A Juice Freestyle’ record he recently released a couple of days back.
Johnny Vigeti has pretty much translated Biggie Smalls’ 1994 hit record to his Swahili ‘A Juice Freestyle’ record that talks about his struggles of coming up in the music industry and his hard life growing up in the ghetto that made him become who he is today.
Just the way Notorious B.I.G introduced his ‘Juicy’ record back in 1994, Johnny Vigeti has a massive intro as well with powerful punchlines saying;
“hii wimbo iko dedicated kwa watu wote wale walijua siwezi kuwa kitu. Ambao walikuwa wanatuitia polisi wakituona kwenye corner wakati nilikuwa najaribu kutengeneza pesa ya kulisha family. lakini iko sawa baby, hamna gori man.” Johnny Vigeti says as the record starts.
On this ‘A Juice freestyle’ record, Johnny Vigeti opens up about a lot of stuff you didn’t know about him at all which makes it a tell-all record that you can’t afford not to listen to.
