Upcoming rapper Kyki dissed  P unit member Gabu recently on a live tv interview she besmirched his record label.

While speaking on Chipukeezy Show on Ebru TV slammed Gabu and other older artists on Chipukeezy Show  insisting that she can never be signed at Gabu’s record label Kompakt Recordz or by any other Kenyan artist for that matter. The rapper further declared that she had been signed to an international label called Blackmarket Records

In her interview she said, “I can’t be signed by Gabu.”

She further added saying, “He’s too local. So he can sign Fifi that’s OK. I will rather be signed by an international label than these local guys.”

Kyki went on to scorn Gabu and other top Kenyan artists such as King Kaka who have started labels, claiming they limit their artist’s success.

According to her, once you sign such a deal, your success has been automatically capped to a certain level.

“They can’t let you surpass their level of success,” she told Chipukeezy in the argument that was now heating up.

“Gabu, tell me? How many artists have you made so far more successful or as much successful as you? I don’t know even one. You see, Diamond Platnumz brought Harmonize in just two years. Rayvanny got a BET award even before Diamond. That’s the backing I’m talking about.”

While Gabu, Frasha and Chipukeezy were quick to label her a complainer, Kiky, however, might not be so far off from the truth.

Kenyan artists signed by fellow musicians rarely come close to matching their bosses’ success.

Younger kids are beginning to identify this pattern, and are therefore willing more than ever to stay away from such partnerships.

In the show, Gabu didn’t have a clear answer for Kiky, insisting that they didn’t attend the TV show to argue but rather find lasting solutions.

Frasha labelled her tantrums as a ‘form of bitterness’ that younger artists carry around in the music business of late.

“There so many artists like her nowadays. They all have this bitterness,” said Frasha.

“And they all want to be overnight stars” added Gabu.

“But what they don’t understand is that it takes time. Step by step and finally things will add up. They need to know that every opportunity and platform they get, counts.”

As the interview winded down, Frasha advised Kyki to respect local artists because they are the ones who will for sure help her.
