 Y254 Imagine How many things have taken place? I want us to look back for the past 11 months since January started as we are starting December and we're winding up the year. How far have we come? What about our goals and resolutions? We always talk about our new year resolutions and the goals that we're going to achieve. Have you actually pursued any of these resolutions? So that is our discussion today and joining me live in studio today is Krugagash, who is an artist, a musical artist. Karibusana. Thank you, thank you Manzeh for having me. You're welcome and it's such a pleasure. I'm very honored. Ya, you see he's ready and I want us to talk about his personal journey and the progress that he's made since the beginning of the year to this last month of 2023. I also want to hear from you. So wo kwa nyumbani, go on our social media platforms which is at Y254TV. Tell me how has the year gone so far? What have you accomplished? Have you really achieved some of the new year resolutions that you set for yourself at the beginning of the year? And we will sample those comments and those opinions as we progress with the show. You can also find me on my personal pages which is at Sherry Blessing and you can share any information that you have, any questions that you have about how to set your new year resolutions for next year and how to look at and assess the progress that you've made. So thank you so much once again for sticking to Y254TV and I think we'll just get into the discussion. We're waiting for one of our other guests who I'm sure will be here any minute. Ame kwa mwa kwa jamia Nairobi. Nairobi ni crazy. It's crazy. Kwanza Jiyoni? Ya. We're just hoping he comes in soon and I guess we'll start with you. You can tell us what do new year resolutions na manishani ni kwa kwa? When people talk about making new year resolutions, what does that personally mean for you? To me new year resolutions is planning for what's to come and being ready like for the unknown pair. So getting it well written. Ya. I like that definition. Kus nivi tuz ni unataka kwa chiv throughout the year. Unadzokunotu anyana semanga, I want to go to the gym, I want to be fit. I want to maybe even get a new job. So people have different resolutions. Where personally, you can say Mwaka 2023. What are some of the resolutions that you made? So, honestly sayze kumbukazote. But some of times we could visit some media houses kaha kwa to amplify my craft. Like kumikshwa being listened out there na piyapa lokali piyana kubalika. At least add to my catalog some more music. Na piya ni spend more time with the people I love and farm and get the money piya. Which is also any very important. Kus when you're in media houses una pata exposure and then atawemu anya we unalan as an artist how to have stage presence, do interviews. Na ata though you're talking about just growing your catalog and growing as an artist. Yoni, some of the best things that we do because I think at the beginning of every year tunatikangatu kukua better. We do not want to be the same as last year. Kilam tula semangat this is my year. So, it's nice that you've said that. But kwa ni okuzi andika though you've mentioned writing now. Ya, siku andika. Some of them haziku hazi jahapem when I intended them to do. So, upon the aspect yaku write things down in Engiliya. Now I know better. And we hope we'll do better. I'll do better. Kitu nili realize, I think nili lana a few years back people write down or they make vision boards. I don't know if you're aware of that. People sit at home and then they make vision boards enya nauna. Let me cut some photos of what I want and write some quotes maybe what's in your stack will inspire success maybe if you want to grow as an artist. So, iyondob maybe nasaidi anga watu piya kukip track of the progress that they've laid. True. I read somewhere if one has to write down your problems vitu zinye una fills in aksumbua you have sold half of them. Nice. So, writing down your resolutions in aksedi apia ku track your progress. I achieve number one. I achieve number two. What should I do in the future in the future? I like that. So, it's better to put it down on paper and make sure you're reading it every now and then. Ya. And do a kukip piya in check. Ya. Yes, you just care about your kukyandika you've solved half of your problem. Maybe if you know to start that. You should. Ya. So, unezatombia briefly about your musical journey. Umeniambia, you started in 2018 and then got serious in 2020. How do you feel like him work specifically umegro as an artist? Umegro tese mikuwa manze. And I like it. So, ya, I started in 2018 I used to do like the hardcore dance na rege rege pale I'm a writer. I write music. I'm a songwriter. So, with time me megro like artistically me melan piya ku rap. It's something I've picked along the way. So, 2020 ah, 2023 me feikana some me keizo places Sinjai, Fikiria, Neyazafika. Like I've seen my music travel places manze. And we like that. And hopefully, nikuwa pwenyuma na fawaja. Amen. Tu naoksidia ku manifestia piya. Kozuna jwefilek saundi ako inezanda global before we mwenyu kumifika apu. Then ina ku introduce. Your art introduces you to the world. And then sasa even devene una jipata uko in spaces that maybe ten years ago, five years ago, you will never have dreamed of being there. So, 2023 me keikana the previous year, 2022. Mm. Ah, me me grow. Actually, I checked my Spotify rig up. Nice. Na. Uwana progress in that time. Ya, so, I think, on 2022, I had, my music was tuned in like 50 something countries. Oh, impressive. Teesia, Teesia ima kuwa 90 something. Ah, that's so good. Isn't that growth? That's growth because that's more than 40. And una jabado ina ndelia because you're still putting out your craft and you're still improving yourself as an artist. So, that's really, really nice. Congratulation. Thank you. So, I've also worked on my networking skills. Ya. Communication pia na wadu. So, 2023 many funds are allot, manze. Eh. Na, as we were saying ata alia, I feel like, ukifil ni kama umegro, ni kama melan something, then that is the whole essence of you living life. Ya. Koza kuna jawseme, uku the same na veni ulikwa last year ata time like this. So, the fact that you're saying you've seen the difference between ata the beginning of the year na right now, you need something that it's very commendable. Ata izo the raptia, the whole year on Spotify, YouTube na naskizi, almost every platform ikuna rapt. Actually, ata YouTube na naka na awa. Eh. Inastia. Inastia, which is good. na inastia, drug growth. Ya. If you're given fagas ukumpiana, the previous fagas, inoksia dia kujwa maliuna, nanda maliume tia oka. Mmm. Na yopia ni another important thing, kwangalia the statistics. True. Jutu meongelia, writing down your resolutions and your goals. Koza nneza track, maybe nneza angale, every few months useme, e ni me shachi, bhi ni me accomplishi, and then una, una ti kuki, ni kama ni checklist. So you know that feeling of taking the checklist. Ya. Jutu me achive manzi. Ni very satisfied. I think personally pia, nime kwanangalia my resolutions, every quarter of the year, ama every month, nangalia nikole koki, ni ni me baki, koza we have like one month, when you say there are some things that you haven't accomplished, I think one month is, we have about three or four weeks left, and that's still time. You can still pursue some things, na iki kata una push forward in the end of 2024. In the end of the year. In the end of the last minute, you save a month, pia. Exactly. Jokun edzaku se machi, mo kaisaisha. It's never late. It's never late. It's never late. It's never late. Ya. So kwa personal life ya ko pia, because you've talked about your professional life. In your personal life, when you looked at yourself, January, say wukai na umsem when you learned that January first, versus right now, kuna growth, do you see any difference in who you are as a person? Ya, definitely there is. Nasa sa uneza sema, like what's something that unapenda about imuaka, like growth gani inye, umenotiz in yo personal life. Mama lesson gani inyo, melan imuaka wuko like, eh, let's run with this into the next year. So, imuaka nimelan, kut seja life, kut seja wadwe ni na payenda, e alafu wopia ko kukontrol like ko kuki paste of mind na witu zene sezi, kontrol zene na eza. So, Napenda weni wuna drop gems. I like the way you have wisdom because honestly wuna jasengine watu na Afrika out about things that are out of our control. True. To seme weni lasti wuna sema you had 54 countries wali kwa with listeners and whatnot. Suki anza kupa ni kukue like, kini kama ni Afrika peke. So, what about Asia, Europe, wana doa? Yo niki towezi kontrol. So, what you can control is improving yourself and improving your craft so that you put yourself out there. So, that's a very good lesson. And I hope wuki onyumbani yo ni lessonenye umechu kwa takama si personal kuako. I hope we may absorb from this conversation. So, yeah, yeah. So, ko, kulek go of witu zene wizi kontrol actually na contribute a lot to kukuana a sane mind somehow. E na pia wuna keep in check pia na watu eni wuna payanda. Which is important. Na weni ato me bring up your point. Let's talk about your friends like your close circle of friends because as an artist I expect you have fans and so many fans, people who think they know you but wana juwa you as the artist. They don't know you personally. So, within your friend groups and your circles, your close friends wuna feel ni kama kuna difference like as you circle grow na wemi shrink kuna difference between weni waka Elianza versus now? Personally, I think in a circle wemi shrink but in the outreach in a grow bigger like as I said wemi wemi work on my networking skills communication now ato so I think it makes me a better person. Ya So that's it. That's really good and do you think kuna benefit wana jo ato na se manga your networks are the people you know and your friends? Ya ya kuna benefits first of all, senge kuwa paif siga jo kuwa nga na watu abilo atatu wizuri. That's true. So you ni poa I like weni wuna sema wuna jo atu wengipia we fixate on growing our friendships and having so many friends ndiw seme mi na julikana ni ko popular but then we have to differentiate between acquaintances colleagues fans and true friends who will be there for you na wana kujua personally na yoni one thing something else piya ni mela ni moa ka like ko nido ku kusot the type of people in my life na joa I can call you to talk about this wuni biz wuni beshte wuni family And I think you ni piya leso ni important ya kukari because as we get old as time in Asonga you can't call live run your friend True true kuna mtu weni wneza pigeo kwa in trouble na hatapul abmi beata atashikasimu but kuna umse weni la beata kwa melala amechoka but a pickup na semena kuja am here for you so na I like that lesson that you've also learnt the importance of kukategorize watu na ume sema piya you taking time you putting in time and getting to know people and investing in your relationships ya ya you ina piya piya kwa like romance so many friendship tu alafu I think romance suju start about romance side of touch but one thing na joa watu ni omali like that's the biggest lesson neza sema ni melani moa ka mm I like that I really like that you might have all the money lakini if how relate vizuri na watu your things will be moving slow ya and that's important una joa wneza kwa billionaire batauna frienda tamoja so you don't have anyone to even share iso joy na pesa with labdoja kwa na otu ni nakuja for the party na for the money sometimes they need people to vent ya kus you know espetio li kama moname wneza wane wana me before the show there was our camera operator sound operator ali kwa na sema nilimuza kwa jana nambia na film gondja another guy is saying wne kama moname ufa ikusemi so ure itaji boys wneza wneza unginai uki wana Shida or something sindi o that's why you need to know your sako nani ni nani ya alafu piya not everyone na comment kwa kwa jani liking your jani true na panda na kama kwa identify your people ndi wna fasa sa uju e the difference between acquaintance na close friends sindi o alafu te stay suwan bob mali kwa tu piya nimi check ya about people na friendship so bob mali ali kwa na sema truly everyone will disappoint you ya but you have to find the ones who are what sindi suffering format ya it's like a cause you have to choose a cause that you're willing to die for so like cooking driver what to like cc people to change sana na nini but once wme make peace na umtu nini nia kwa aside uwa kwa aside outa kona get stress that u ju uwa li kucheza uwa yaku fanya uwa me fanya iwe uta juwa how to separate this people in your life I like that so right now we're just getting into the progress and the life ya Krugaku Gush Krugaku we're just getting into the conversation we want to understand imuaka how are your goals and your resolutions going on unafili kama kona growth or are you still at the same place that you were at last year so I want us to take a very very short break stay tuned to Y24 TV and meanwhile and across social media platforms at Y254 share a comment ya ko kama kona sualia kuuliza kama kona opinion uto ambi experience ya ko imuaka and the difference unafili between you in kama kona and you today on 7 December so stay tuned we're going on a short break but we'll be right back Y254 imagine
