running. Voting has been going on for quit sometime now and the nominated deejay have been campaigning over various social media site looking for votes. But that's not our story.

The performance list is what we are concerned with. Honestly, I have  not checked the entire list because I was concentrating particularly on hip-hop artists. I can confidently tell you that Hip Hop has been represented by the best Hip-Hop acts of Mombasa, this time, not as CURTAIN RAISERS but as main artists for the event. These guys are; Johnny Skani, Odinare Bingwa, Ohm's Law and The Anonymous Vedette.

Ohms Law

If you claim to love coastal hip-hop and do not have either of the above mentioned in your playlist then you need to get your shit together. These guys have been very active on the Hip Hop no only musically but socially. With the aim of setting standards for coast Hip-Hop. Both Odinareh and Ohms Law have had their tracks number one on Pwani FM charts. Showing that if given a chance in Mombasa hip hop could be the trending genre. Although it has not yet been formerly launched on any radio station The Anonymous Vedette's street anthem Hip Hop City, which is the soul track he has released this year seems to be doing well in and out of Mombasa, with regards to online plays and downloads. Johnny Skani is a veteran in the coastal music, having been in the game for long he is one of the Most experienced artist around. 

Odinareh Bingwa

Now it is up to these chosen Hip Hop artist to rock the crowd during the event and change the perception that event organizers and music promoters may have against hip hop. This may be the turning point of Hip hop in Mombasa that every one has been waiting for.
