Thank you so much for this interview. How are you everyone? Hello SPM Buzz. I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I think And Nigeria Keua And Nigeria Keua And Nigeria Keua I don't know. I don't know. I think the end of the day So see you really? I mean, I mean I said I was going to perform, I said I was going to perform I would like to collaborate with my sister, Mautely Brown and I know that I will have so much fun doing a lot of views on Youtube so I just want to have fun but the reason I am here with my sister is that I think I am going to be able to do it in a certain way and I want to have fun I want to be able to do it partially I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm content. It might be happening soon. Kenyan female artists winning a Grammy Award. Well, I don't like to talk about things that I'm not very privy to, like I don't have the full information. I think it's a long time coming. We have a lot of amazing artists in this country, but I think the push is what we are lacking. Once we get the push, then we're good to go because the talent is there. The content is there. The image is there. We are as good as many other countries that have been recognized way before us. But I think there's a certain push that is lacking and that's what needs to happen. What do you mean about pushing? I don't know. It could be the government. It could be our own organizers. It could be our promoters who have to give us the opportunity to actually get to the top of things without it having to be all you know so and so, or you've paid a certain amount of money. Let it just be purely about the talent as opposed to who you know and how much money you have. As you wind up now, 39 years. How have you been lately? Thank you. How are you feeling? I'm great. I mean, I've lived my life the way that I wanted to live my life. I'm not sad. I'm not depressed about, oh my God, you're almost 40. I'm actually looking forward to 40. I am. I'm very happy. I'm a very content individual with everything that I've achieved. The people that I know, the love that I have around me, it's made my 39 years worth it. Moving forward. Are there memories you cherish during the other nine years? Oh, so many. I mean, even getting into the music. One memory you live forever to remember. Oh, I can't give you that now. I don't know. Think about it. That one moment, one moment. I can't share it because it's personal. Unfortunately. And you know me and personal life. I don't share. Sanaype. You know, 39 years is something amazing, something great. If I'm gonna ask you about 39 things you've learned in life, I know we'll sit down and talk about this more and more and more. But for now, someone who's always looking forward to you. You've managed to keep your life private. You've managed to keep your social life lucky. You always feed us with what you want us to know about your music alone. Why are you like this, Sanaype? People who want to see, you know, there's pressure there on social media. People who write blogs about you. People who talk about you. People say much about you. It's how I was raised. That's the best answer I can give you. I was raised to be real and believe in the things that I believe in and not to be pressured or coerced into doing things that I don't believe in. So social media has come around. Social media has made people feel like they have to share everything. I wasn't raised like that. I was raised to be true to myself. And my truth is I don't like people knowing everything about me. And that's how I live. Is there something you want to achieve before you hit 40? Personal. Come on. Come on. You know at the end of the day, it's a personal thing, so I can't talk about it. What is your wish this year? My wish list, or my wish this year. Among your wish list? To just be happier. You've been happy forever of your life. But I can be happier. What is the definition of happiness? Being content with everything that you've done in life and everything that you have. So I'm yet to get there. I'm about 90% there. I look for you another time. But from now, I leave you to go. But if I leave you to go, I want you to talk to your fans. Because Sanipay, we have a lot to talk about you. You've inspired me, your music inspired me on a personal level. I have to say this in front of you. Let me give you a flowers today. Talk to your fans. Every day, it's a thank you. It's been 20 years in the game since 2004. I've made 20 years this year and they've supported me throughout. And I've gotten even more new fans. I mean, people who are four years old are now listening to my music. So that's great. I appreciate you. I love you. Continue supporting me. And my message every day is continue being real. Don't be pressured. Don't be forced. Don't be depressed about it. You are who you are. Nobody answers for you but yourself. So you'll be real. Do you feel pressured to live a normal life? Do I feel pressured to live the normal life? No, I live a normal life. I live a very normal life. Yes. This is normal. Like, I'm off the stage now. That's where everything happens as a celebrity. Once I get off the stage, I'm a normal person. I get into my car, I drive home, I go through the market, I buy potatoes, I buy water, go home. I'm serious, lying to you. No. That's the honest truth. I live a normal life, which I think is one of the reasons why I've been able to stay grounded because this doesn't affect me. I get on stage, I do my thing. When I get off, I'm back to normal. I'm doubting you, Senepe. Why? You don't think I can buy potatoes? You? Yamani. I'm not a farmer, I'm a cook. I'm a cook. Yamani. I'm not a cook. Yeah. Cook is normal. I'm not a cook. Yes. As we wind up, advice to your 20-year-old yourself. 20? No, no, no, no. Give me a hint. Advice you'll give to yourself. A 20-year-old... Senepe Itande. Okay. It's 20 years. You shouldn't have taken things as black and white. Apparently, there were gray areas in life. I didn't know that. I thought everything was what you see is what you get. I didn't know that. I had to learn people slowly. I had to learn situations. Now I know better. I should have taken things as black and white and gray. There's a gray area where people are not real and people are not honest and people are always trying to get ahead of you by using you. You get what I mean? So I know that now. What do you mean this? You don't have friends? You trust? No, I do. How many friends do you have? You can trust. You can call them anytime. I can count them on two hands. I can count them here. They're not 10, but they are here. All I'm saying is that getting into this industry, I should have known that not everything is black and white. I know now.
