In the context of covid-19, technology comes as a very influential tool for social communication and dissemination of information. Never before has the world experienced a demand for technology as in the 21st century.
In Mombasa's particularity, art and talent have in recent past been used as mainstream media for communication, entertainment and teaching of our Kenyan society. Since time immemorial, people have viewed Mombasa as a town with lazy youths who lack unity, this is albeit wrong. People also view coastarians as people who aren't hard-working, who have a penchant for flamboyance and strut.
With popular music groups as Double Trouble who won on 06/8/2021 their first on screen exposure on national television KBC (Pwani Fm) such aforementioned stereotypes have been ruthlessly demystified.
Actually, Mombasa boasts big artistes who only flew to Nairobi since it is the capital and because big media hubs including popular Citizen Tv, KTN home, Ntv, K24 Tv, KBC and other budding media stations like Switch Tv, Tawala Tv which most are synchronized at the heart of Nairobi.
Otile Brown, Arrow Boy, Masauti are some among the big names doing it bigger in Nairobi. They are homgrowns of Mombasa county who have stuck to the originality of Bongo flava, offering stiff competition to Tanzanian counterparts and fellow Kenyan colleagues.
