After completing my high school education at Jamhuri High School in 1992, armed with French, I became a tour guide based in Mombasa. Having been born a musician, I began substituting guiding with musical performance for tourists in Diani Beach Hotels, the latter surpassing the former. By 1999, I had recorded my first single Mr. Lololova a reggae song that branded me. I curtain raised for Maxi Priest in the Beats of the Season. By 2000, I found a sponsor for an album of ten tracks, but due to lack of full payment to the producer, my album never saw the light of day. I carried on and performed with Awilo Longomba during the last Beats of the Season. In 2001,2002 and 2004, I curtain raised for Gregory Isaacs, Mighty Culture, and Glen Washington respectively in Nairobi. In December 2004, with the Nairobi City Ensemble, I traveled to Djibouti for the Fest-Horn Festival. More recently as one of the finalists of Spotlight on Kenyan music, I curtain raised a show by a great son of Congo based in Paris, Lokua Kanza, at Alliance Francaise, Nairobi. Currently I have finished recording my twelve track album Ohanglaman on this album I have changed my style of music from a raga to an African music popularly referred to as Anglo-Ohangla which is a fusion of Ohangla, Nyatiti, and Dodo -traditional Luo (western Kenya, Lake Victoria region tribe) styles of Music, with other modern African beats with heavily accented Luo-English Vocals.
