Out The Booth is a weekly Kenyan music podcast dedicated to exploring, playing and uncovering the finest in Kenyan music. In addition to this, the podcast also highlights ongoing matters within the entertainment industry as well as playing select picks from artists across Africa.
In this episode, you get to hear the story of how music has been integral in protests, especially those about governance, in Kenya. Starting from post-independence times to the modern day. Of course, not all the songs involved are featured.
This episode aims to give you, my dear listener, an idea of how art has always been involved in advocating for awareness, accountability and creating moments to remember.
Songs featured in this episode are:
Mai ni Maruru by Ishamael Ng'ang'a
JM by Joseph Kamaru
Baba Otonglo by Sega Sega Band
Ni Maitho Tuunite by Joseph Kamaru
Tafsiri Hii by Kalamashaka

OTBPODKE: Kenyan Film Talk
Let's have an honest, friendly conversation about Kenyan cinema — where
it’s working, where it’s falling short, and what could actually make it better.
Because this industry isn’t failing due to a lack of creativity. It’s struggling
because of structure, storytelling choices, and a disconnect between filmmakers
and audiences.
