Dive into the Rhythmic Journey of Mr. Lenny on CTA - Cleaning The Airwaves! 🇰🇪
Uncover the musical tapestry woven by Kenyan Afro-Hip Hop artist Lenson Njuki Wang’ang’a, widely known as Mr. Lenny, since his debut in 2000. Introduced to the world of music by his friend and early collaborator Nelson kiama aka Dr. Paper, Mr. Lenny officially embarked on his musical odyssey under the Sratch Records label where they released their first single, "Daddy Has To Know". In the quest to share new and unconventional sounds, Lenny faced the challenge of finding studios willing to record his unique style. The turning point came at Entertainment with a Difference (EWD), owned by Jimmy, where he recorded the breakout single 'MCs.' Collaborations with Mr. Googz and Vinny Banton on the remix of 'Githurai' not only propelled Lenny's career but also reintroduced him to Ogopa DJ, connecting him with musicians across East Africa.
Building on this momentum, Lenny established a fruitful partnership with Kunguru, resulting in hits like 'African Woman' and 'Baby Don’t Go Away.' Collaborating with the late E-sir on 'Kamata,' Lenny also delved into independent projects, releasing the single 'Cash Money.' The Kenyan music scene witnessed Lenny's meteoric rise as he, along with fellow artists, toured East Africa and various European nations to showcase the richness of Kenyan music. After a hiatus in 2007 for business ventures, Lenny made a triumphant return in 2018 with 'Randa Randa' at Grandpa Records. Currently working with different producers on his second album, Mr. Lenny has rekindled his presence in the live music scene, gracing notable events like the GoDown Gig and PRC concerts.

When MOU came out, my brother brought home a dog and named it Lenny❤
This is hilarious 😂
Atleast we have CTA to remind us of the good times back then and the good Kenyan music we had. 🔥
You see the reason why I love CTA is simply because, I relate to all these songs growing up in a small village in Kirinyaga known as Difathas,Riagicheru. In primary I could sing the songs word by word, but CTA gives me the back stories of the wasanii ,the songs and what inspired them and the stories behind the compositions.
Maaaaaaaaaan 🙌🙌🙌🙌this is the best CTA ever Lenny is just but a living Legend ,pure n clean heart thank you so much A.Star this is history in the making.
The best to ever do it Richard njau 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
Waiting for part two of this amazing story of Mr Lenny.
Lenny's dad was really good in music... thanks yaani for sharing the music..
Just wonder how Lennys father was also called Mr. Lenny
Nisiposkia the making of MOU ft Indigenous I swear I will replay the song one two many times mpaka nichoke.
I thought indigenous was a group. shock on me. Any way, we're learning. 9:50

Totally unrelated question but does Lucas own all the publishing of all the artists he signed? I ask coz ogopa dj artists ka wote wali fall off hard na wakasota. Exception za nameless (juu ye ni architect) na nyash (coz he went majuu kuchop na kuhustle) but does lucas own all their publishing?
Name an artist of that era in BlueZebra, Calif records who has not fallen off as you allude?
@@gilbertangokho425 who has fallen off or not fallen off? Be specific coz I'm talking about artists (specifically from ogopa) who have fallen off in regards to being signed and losing their publishing forever... Do you understand?
As him about Bad Man Camp tumefika?
West Africa beat East Africa coz of that. Jay Z performs the songs till date. People still talk about Diamond with Mbagala... Never Give Up 🙏🏾
Enyewe we were eating good
Indeginous song Ujuzi was still produced by Ogopa. He had another jam
Tafuta longombaz on this CTA
Yes, please 🤞🏼Only Lovy is left now.
