Kenyans have misunderstood what being an international artist is. Going to the US, UK or Dubai to perform for Kenyans does not make one an international artist. Say for example you are able to fill up the O2 Arena, Wembley Stadium, Madison Square Garden like Burna Boy, Wizkid, Rema, Davido, Diamond Platnumz, Seal or Ayra Starr does then you deserve to be crowned as an International Artist.

[@geoffreymabuka3841]

When did diamond do that?

[@ngwenoh.e9725]

Sasa wewe ndio umetotea kabisaa,if your audience is outside the borders,say a Kenyan Artiste being played in say Burundi,they are "international artistes" the same way if they perform outside the country, they still are international acts.... international is a term that varies depending on the level of influence.

​​​@@ngwenoh.e9725International Artists should fill Arenas in Europe and America's how many Kenyans can??
You do realize there are Kenyans living abroad na hao ndo huenda hizo concerts ndogo ndogo za Kenyan Artists but they're not international Artists.

[@IsArap-ho3mu]

DJ Shiti, hands down...you hit the nail on the head they are blocking real talent and only promoting their own. Check out these kids called We Are SDP. They have an album named MTLA....Listen to it and tell me if they can make it to international level. DJ Shiti respect man you said it as it is.

[@A-cb2ib]

You know whats puzzling is that upcoming artists who have real talent in Kenya are suppressed by media personalities who prefer to see the same old artists on mainstream media in Kenya NOT internationally. They seem to work with emotions/ethnicity and not proffesionalism. My big question is over the years they have promoted whoever they have promoted on the Kenyan musical scene only to end up in Kenya and never make it internationally. Doesnt that tell you that the system is foul. It cannot be able to identify pure talent that can take Kenya to the world and that is why we can NEVER have Kenya represented internationally due to the rot that oozes especially in mainstream media. Such a shame!

[@asili2tv767]

Africa has one or two international artists only, Alpha Blondy and maybe Yousou Ndo, but in true sense Alph Blondy is the only International artist from Africa, No other African has the capacity to draw a paying crowd, the rest are local artist who will only draw they countrys crowd, or African diaspora crowd in western dungeons or underground halls.

[@user-ih5zr8wq1p]

Do you follow burna boy's crowd close

[@panafrican.nation]

You just might be stuck in an ancient age, if you think about it

[@asili2tv767]

@@panafrican.nation Can you name 3 African artists who can be in the bracket i just described above? whose crowd is not the diaspora, who is invited by an international promoter(company), who is not dumped up with other artist for his/her relevance-the crowd is for the artist not the function/event, you will try but you will not get. How many Asian or South American artist do you know?????that answers you

[@panafrican.nation]

@@asili2tv767 I'll think about it. I can't name them for now because I've not been following any modern artists from a big music-producing market, with the exception of Jamaica. I had the impression that Burna Boy of Nigeria is big but I don't know a single song from him because I simply don't listen.
