Kenyan music group Mbogi Genje has landed its first radio gig scheduled to debut on November 12.
The trio, Militan, Smadytings and Guzman Teddy will be hosting their own show on Icon Radio, an online audio-visual radio.
A statement from the station read, “Icon Radio KE is proud to announce that it will be working with Mbogi Genge – sheng masters as presenters on the online audio-visual radio."
In their show dubbed ‘Run It Up’ which will be characterized by hard-core Sheng, the trio will be discussing a wide range of topics, including music, the entertainment scene, and their lifestyles.
Listeners will have a chance to listen to the best of fresh Caribbean flavour music as well as local hits.
The show will premiere on Icon Radio KE on November 12 2021 and will be airing every Friday from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
Mbogi Genje's hit songs Ngumi Mbwegze and Kidungi earned them popularity especially because they featured heavy use of the sheng language.
The trio’s mastery of Sheng impressed many Kenyans, with a section of them left confused by the meaning of the words.
In July 2021, Siaya Senator James Orengo took to social media to acknowledge the group.
He tweeted, “Am currently in Ndakaini, Murang'a County for the Skiza thanksgiving ceremony, I quickly remember this group of young Kenyans Mbogi Genje, who are doing a wonderful job."
“Their latest hit featuring Khaligraph titled Warena is greatly artistic. Music made in Kenya,” the Senator added.
The group expressed appreciation to the senior counsel for supporting their craft.
