According to Refigah, “We are back. No more hiatus. Grandpa is back and this time round we will be giving opportunity to new artistes. For a long time the Kenyan industry has been recycling same old artistes. We intend to change that going forward. This is why today we introducing new acts (Thomas) Niweti who will be dropping his first single featuring Wyre today (Tuesday). We also have Mistony (Jane Ikasi) who I assure you will be taking the industry by storm.”

He further noted that he won’t be locking out any established artistes who would love to work with the ‘new’ Grandpa although he said priority will be accorded to upcoming artistes.

Refigah, who started out as a rapper before transforming himself into a producer, went on to reveal that this will be his last year in the music industry as he plans life outside music after a career of 18 years.

“Grandpa is not all about me and so this will be my last year in music and then I will retire to do other things like farming. I got a new team better than before which I’m grooming to take over once I’m gone. I believe one year is enough to put everything in place,” he added.

The producer, who has lately been seen in the company of several politicians, however denied reports that he would be joining politics once he quits music, ahead of the 2022 General Elections.
