Mejja is officially the hitmaker in the Kenyan music industry and it’s about time he is given his well-deserved props from anyone and everyone especially Kenyans: both the fans and the artistes alike! he’s the selfless, hitmaker who wants nothing but the music industry to grow exponentially.
Mejja has by far become the hitmaker in the Kenyan music industry today, right now, there isn’t any song that features Mejja that’s not a hit song. Numbers don’t lie, especially numbers that aren’t cooked.
The best thing about this is that both the fans and fellow artistes know this to be true.
Thanks to Mejja jumping on Femi One’s hit record dubbed ‘Utawezana’, right now one beautiful soul in Azziad Nasenya is doing what she loves to do which is acting and getting paid while she’s at it.
Since then, Azziad has landed also some lucrative gigs here and there.
The song ‘Utawezana’ had so much ripple effect that it ultimately became the number one song of 2020 not only in Kenya but across the East African region. You better ask somebody!
Mejja is by far without any dispute, one of the very few artistes if not the only artiste in the music industry today who has the “Midas’ touch” when it comes to putting out songs, every song he is a part of becomes an instant hit.
Here are just a few reasons why Mejja deserves props coming his way for helping put the entire genres of music in the Kenyan music industry on the mainstream level.
Uplifting upcoming artistes
Taking you back a couple of years ago. Mejja through his clique, The Kansoul got to work with the hottest Gengetone group today(they were not so hot back then), Ethic who are termed to be the founders of the Gengetone genre of music.
It’s alleged that nobody wanted to work with Ethic, especially after their controversial debut hit record dubbed ‘Lamba Lolo’ but Mejja together with his group, The Kansoul jumped in to escalate the new budding genre in the music scene to release one of the timeless single today dubbed ‘Position’ that will forever be considered one of the Kansoul’s hit records.
You won’t find any artiste in the country who has something bad and/or negative to say about Mejja, absolutely no one, he’s as real as real gets and that’s why he’s one of the very few entertainers in the country whos is loved unconditionally by both sides: the fans and fellow entertainers alike.
Versatility
Starting from humble beginnings in Majengo, Nyeri confessing that it was Clemmo who even bought him his first boxers, Mejja has proven without any reasonable doubt that he’s a versatile artiste and that he can fit in any genre of music so long as there’s a beat attached to it.
Is there any artiste who has proven his versatility in the music industry this year as Mejja has done?
Let me break it down for y’all and see how versatile he’s been in 2020 alone.
Mejja worked with Femi One on her hit record ‘Utawezana’ which is hands-down, the hottest and number one track in all of 2020, for crying out loud it’s the song that helped launched Azziad Nasenya’s career which she’s currently capitalizing on.
Mejja went on to work with Jovial who is doing a different genre of music from what he’s usually used to.
Mejja isn’t comfortable with one specific genre of music, he’s comfortable with every genre of music, from what we’ve gathered so far, Mejja can even prosper in a Taarab music if any Taarab maestro might want to indulge him on their record.
The bottom line is, Mejja can prosper in any genre of music around the world placed before him, and that’s not an easy feat to achieve.
So far, Mejja has worked with Femi One, Mbogi Genje, Richy Haniel, Otile Brown, Magix Enga, Jovial, Bahati on his ‘Wanani Remix’ that also brought out Petra, Odi Wa Murang’a, Ssaru, Benzema.
Mejja real name Major Nemeye Khadija was also featured through The Kansoul(a group that he’s a member of) to work with Ochungulo Family on the ‘Mpenzi Mtazamaji’ hit record. The group was also featured on Boondocks Gang recent project dubbed ‘Hainishtui’ released a month ago.
His recent collaboration project saw him getting featured alongside Ssaru, Breeder LW, Rekles by Willis Raburu alias Bazu on Raburu’s debut record dubbed ‘Kalale’ that currently has over 2.4 million streams on YouTube alone.
Just to put a perspective on how good Mejja is a good hitmaker and a bankable collaborator, all of the aforementioned his records has over 600 views on YouTube alone.
He was taught by the best in the game
Mejja was nurtured by two of the best in the Genge genre, he was nurtured by Jua Cali real name Paul Julius Nunda and respected, renowned music producer, Clemmo real name Clement Rapudo Sijenyi.
His being able to learn from Jua Cali automatically lets you know that he is a respectful person just like his mentor, Jua Cali without even having to interact with him.
If you ask around the entertainment industry, ask around, Jua Cali is the humblest, easy-to-work-with kinda guy who hasn’t let his fame, glory, and success enter his head and that’s why he is among the top artistes brands loves to work with today.
The good nature rubbing off on Mejja, the ‘Niko Poa’ hitmaker started off on the right foot in the music industry by learning humility, respect, hard work, and consistency from the best to ever do it in the music industry.
Richy Haniel brought out Mbogi Genje and Mejja on his latest offering
Jua Cali is by far one of the most prolific, consistent music act in Kenya, he has a huge fanbase like no other Kenyan musician in Tanzania and he’s almost synonymous to Kenyan music and Kenyan sheng in Tanzania.
Almost every Tanzanian you meet in Tanzania after learning you’re a Kenyan, they expect you to talk the way Jua Cali usually raps on his songs.
There’s absolutely no youth in Tanzania who doesn’t know who Jua Cali is and from the looks of it, thanks to his collaborative record together with Femi One ‘Utawezana’, Mejja is on his way to becoming a household name in Tanzania just as Jua Cali is.
If there was an award of being prolific, consistent, hitmaker, and successful collaborator given in the country this year, there’s no way Mejja wouldn’t have taken that trophy back home.
It’s only right you put some respect in Mejja’s name, give him his flowers right now so that he can smell them.
By far, Mejja is a GOAT and you can’t dispute that despite him being humble about it, it doesn’t change the fact.
