So actually Afro beat with Kamal Ikanza at that lit It's so bad, but that actually one of my followers was like you shouldn't be using the word musungu That's a like he's Kenyan and he's like that's not a good word to be using like it has all these colonial implications I was like, you know what? You're right. We need to change this. Where is that guy? Give him a job, man Seriously, no, I know I know him very well because I'm like you made this what it is. All right So he's very all-in-one if he's watching No man said his name. Just wait All right, so what was the first social media platform that you ever joined? Facebook of course My space for you my he comes from a different one My space was there for you. Yeah. All right. What are some of the transitions you've seen over time in our personal journeys In your personal experience with social media from my space to Facebook What are some of the changes you've seen in some of the good implications? I Think so one how immediate everything is so for example like sasa and I was a kind of live You and your manza so live also just like the idea of a social media influencer That was not here like 10 years ago So it's a very new thing the fact that anybody can then start posting content I can I roll no Natalie Dean g like all these people and I can start getting a huge following and Then brands want to work with them So I think that's amazing because then you can just be a self-made person. All right. It's pretty dope. That's pretty dope, right? All right, when it comes to DJs, I see DJs hanging out together from a kind of DJ V DJ Khalifa did kind of DJ Tiesca. You see them Stunting you see them functioning over the weekends artists rappers hang out together So do we have like tick-tock a tick-tock a clicks hanging out together and just turning up sometime show it out in the clubs and what I Really wish I could But I think we need to start I think we need to we need to because the thing is people are two ideas for you guys All right, thanks for the idea All right, so this one I think this is the last before we get to tick-tock it Was your favorite social media mogul that social media mogul that you look at somebody who has made a brand for themselves and just Made some money for themselves on social media that person I'll say it and I'll say it before it's always Kate the actress Kate that Kate the actress Yes, Catherine come out Catherine come out. Yeah, like really funny. Yeah, she's funny. Like yes, it's very funny from funny to serious Yeah, she's like exactly like ace-up. She you know that she's here looking all gangsta and then the next minute She's looking all like a slay queen like she feeds everywhere. Yes, and I love a movie with the With that lady from tidy eye. What's any? So it's a very good This is no movie. It's linen. Yes, we are going to remember it Kate the actress We are going to remember it, but Kate the actress is that one present for you Some crooks the world maybe worldwide I love one tick-tock her name is She has a very funny name. I don't even know if it's a real name, but she's a tick-tock She's a tick-tock. Yes some parts up here. Who's that social media mogul that she looked up to so okay internationally There's a tick-tocker Okay, so before tick-tock there was an application called musically and musically became tick-tock Her name is baby Ariel baby. So she's an American and She just pioneered this whole thing of what is tick-tock. All right. She pioneered everything. So she's she's dope She's like the two pack of tick-tock. Yeah, she's crazy Another person social media in general I would say Somebody who I look up to so like for you on boy tokenian and Maxine Wambosha I think they're dope like and there's so many George Kimani actually the thing that they do They're like they're so consistent with their content like now and I can ask you when I post And not even not even just one platform. They're like on YouTube. They're on Instagram. They're on IG TV So I think that's inspiring like just so much commitment to content creation. All right, pretty dope It's about that time.
