Wanja Wahoro might not be a mainstream artiste just yet but through her music, she might as well be a Matriarch when it comes to her music as she has already performed at the coveted Home Coming Event in South Africa a day after she released her debut album back in September 2018.

She wrote this about 2018 being her greatest year: ” This year[2018] has been an amazing one and a TERRIFYING one. Even now im learning how to deal better with my fear and anxiety. It’s felt like every week there was something new to panic about and stress over. I never know where I’ll be next month, I don’t even really know where my next payment or income is coming from. I live entirely on hope, hustle and heart palpitations. But it’s okay. Breathe, Wanja. Breathe. ???????”

Wanja Wahoro actually confessed that 2018 was her best year thus far as she was able to achieve a whole lot of things in her music career with a promise of 2019 being a year for elevated content and videos.

The super talented, calm and collected soul artiste who is afro-optimist all the way released her debut album last September dubbed ‘Matriach’ which according to her is one of her best works yet and she wouldn’t have done it without her friends and family who chipped in to help in any way possible. She even thanked people who helped her with the project with the crowdfund campaign which she brought together to see her dream come to fruition.

Like. It’s done it’s out it’s there. I am just staring at the screen trying to think what to write. I’m completely stuck, I’ll write something heavy and long at another time. But right now I just want to tag and thank everyone who helped make this happen from helping crowdfund, to finding me something to wear, to spending hours brainstorming how to make this all work.

There are so many more people I want to thank, and I promise I will. But today I just hope you listen to the project and see the value of what happens when a community of people get together behind a message and a musician.

I’m so blessed and so proud.
