RnP singer Otile Brown has responded to comedian Alex Mathenge’s claims that Kenyan celebrities are broke and suffering, paying off car loans and living in rented houses.
In an Instagram story, the comedian claimed that most Kenyan celebrities live in rented homes and drive automobiles purchased with bank loans.
“Celebrities are broke, they live in rental houses, drive cars that are on loan and sometimes they don’t even have fuel they just hitch rides. Influencers try to brand themselves as brand ambassadors but still it doesn’t work. Corporates support talent by giving out hoodies and freebies. Fans use Tanzanian and Nigerian songs for ring back tones. Let’s not blames celebs at time, they lack confidence to be creative, they haven’t paid rents and their baby mamas are demanding upkeep threatening to expose them to blogger Edgar Obare,” Alex Mathenge wrote.

“Let me surprise you. The funny thing is do you know that Kenyan artists they are one of the most successful artists in Africa. Do you guys know that? I know it may sound funny but am giving you the blueprint,” noted Otile.
“Unajiaibisha just shut your mouth bro, fix the game you are in a position. Just funga mdomo yako wacha kujifanya unajua sana, kwani hapa penye tumefika na hii achievement tuko nayo wewe ndo umetufikisha hapa penye tuko? Kazi ni kujifanya unajua tu, hio ndo sababu mumearibu game. Shut your mouth stop embarrassing yourself, anytime you are opening your mouth you are embarrassing yourself,” Otile Brown lamented.
Earlier on, Otile had decried the poor state of the Kenyan music industry, praising South African music industry for being very successful.
