Madtraxx, Mejja, and KidKora, who together constitute the Kansoul hip hop music group, have come out to claim to be the architects of Gengetone music genre.

The trio opened up about launching Gengetone music in Kenya while speaking during a recent interview on Kiss FM.

Madtraxx, Mejja, and KidKora said they transitioned from Genge music to Gengetone when they released their hit song ‘Nyongwa’ in 2014.

“We changed the game. You guys thought Gengetone came juzi and we have been doing ‘Nyongwa’ ever since,” Madtraxx said.

Adding that;

“We crafted and are the architects of the game you think is so hot right now. We have been doing this for a while.

It was designed by people like Nonini. Do you think the talk on nasty things started today? I am telling you The Kansoul wasn’t just about me, Mejja, and Kora.

We are like a movement, we are creating services that people need. We make you go to the club and dance your a** off.”
