KENYABUZZ: How has Boomplay impacted you artistically? NAIBOI: It is a good platform to sell and advertise myself and my music, plus it gets me money (laughing).

KENYABUZZ: You have protégés like Rosa and who look up to you. Are they involved in all your projects? NAIBOI: Yes definitely, if they win, I win.
KENYABUZZ: What do you emphasize on most when creating music, content or flow? NAIBOI: Content, 100%. And the vibe of the country at the time.
