LUO FLOW RAP STILL LIVES ON AFTER WICKY MOSH & POXY PRESHA

Octopizzo ( Wuo Nyaboro)


Wicky Mosh and Poxy Presha have since left this world for another world although we must admit their mega tunes Atoti and Otonglo Time respectively  still remain vivid to our mental musical stores.Otherwise Luo Flow Rap alone  continues to dominate the streets above  51% even with the withdrawal of legendary duo Gidigidi and Majimaji from active music performance .

Maji and Gidi are still well known for the hit song Unbwogable which was at one point more popular
than our national anthem,oh I'm kidding ! .The two later quit music for radio ,lets just say they followed their dream and passion ,after all radio and music still go together.Glad they left a legacy  and people behind to continue flying the LFR flag higher.

BIG PIN

He is and will always remain King Of Luo Flow Rap among those still actively practicing the genre.His lyrical ability and rich talent wont just let him slip off the highly contested throne,Many say he might sooner or later be replaced by Vicmass Luodollar or Lang Katalang but lets see about that when the right time comes.It doesn't matter whether the last few years have been a challenge to the star,a former close friend  to the late E-Sir .His comeback with the song Nairobi Party is  just a tip of the iceberg  on what we should expect  from Bigpin in the near future .Rumor has it he has an international collaboration  in waiting  with a west African and Kenyan group of stars.

Timmy uses his love for srabing (shrubbing)  to keep his fans entertained.Ever since he set foot in the mainstream ,he has maintained the style to the extend it has become his signature.This in the essence is Luo Flow Rap because of the style and flow  depending on the topic of diskason oops sorry discussion.Timmy however never uses much of Luo language but has a way of making every word he says sound luo plus dropping a few luo phrases here and there.Timmy takes charge of the industry  taking up the character of a modest,and typical luo.His songs Haitosi,Tusakubali among others are a living examples.Professionals would call him the Luo Version of Mejja.The two share some common characteristics.Timmy just recently moved out of his former label Pacho Ent to Kaka Empire from where he is currently being  managed.
