Nasty C fell in love with his Kenyan fans last year when he hit the Nairobi stage at the Jameson Connect concert. He was astounded by Kenyans reciting his lyrics word for word and he did promise a return.

The tour is meant to give his fans a better understanding of his latest Album Strings & Blings. Ahead of the anticipated concert, Nasty C said, “I can’t wait to return to Nairobi to meet up with my fans! I am excited about this concert as it will be my first major performance since dropping my album and I am glad that my Kenyan fans will be able to experience it live.’’
The Hype Group Limited and Mwanaume Ni Effort (MNE) have come together to bring this concert this month: The Kaya Fest. Top Kenyan acts including The Kansoul, Rosa, Barak Jacuzzi, and newcomers: Ethic Group of the hit song “Lamba Lolo” are also set to grace the Kaya Fest stage.
UK rapper Kojo Funds who was also set to headline the concert will not be performing. A statement from the organisers stated: “We regret to announce that Kojo Funds won’t be performing at Kaya Fest 2018 this weekend due to issues relating to immigration. We were unable to secure a work permit for him and his team in good time.
However, he will be performing in Nairobi in December 2018. To our super fans we sincerely apologize and to make it up, tickets to Kojo Funds’ performance in December will be at half price for everyone who had and will purchase tickets to Kaya Fest on ticketsasa.”
Nasty C is expected to jet in the country on Thursday 26th July 2018 and plans to embark on a brief media tour visiting top media houses in Kenya as well as interact one on one with his Nairobi fans.
