Raghava KK: Five lives of an artist

Raghava KK is an artist who started by drawing cartoons in the classroom. Listening to him and see what he has done, you’ll agree with me, his pencils & paint brushes are mightier than the sword. One thing that really impressed me with Raghava is his creativity, and how his art evolves and transforms, while still maintaining its originality.

Secondly, how he collaborates with different type of artists to revolutionize his own is just so impressive. I hope young artists will learn not to limit themselves, kwani ubunifu kama huu ndio unao kosekana kwa wasanii wengi wa Bongo Hip Hop/ Bongo flava na hata aina nyingine za sanaa.

    Very touching stories... seems like the best way to communicate with your audience is to reflect on your life experiences and project them onto art.

    Mfano mzuri ni Man Dojo na Domo Kaya, somehow nyimbo zao zinaonekana zinawagusa watu wengi (kutokana na visa walivyovipata kwenye maisha yao). Ukianza kusahau hayo, unakuwa unashindwa hata kuwa na identity.

    Pia, kitu kingine ni kubadilika kadri muda unavyoenda...
