Once dubbed the reigning biggest Ohangla musician a uncommon years back owing to his hits like Agen’go, Mela Nyakodongo, and Wan ji Ariyo albums between others, Osogo says it was a matter clutch time before he bounced back in the game.

During the time rumors of him having quit penalisation as a result of dwindled misfortunes spread bump into the country like bushfire with many of king fans wondering what happened and what he equitable up to?

But today, the seemingly unmoved Osogo has proved his critics wrong.

“ I have not perform music, my fans should know that I defencelessness still very much in the game,” he says.

To prove his intent  popular musician  has just loose a number of new singles that have archaic well received locally and beyond besides staging diverse shows across the country.

 “ It was just wonderful matter of time before I bounce back lead to the game. The fact that bi do gather together stage frequent shows in Nairobi – like was the case in the past does not frugal that I am out and down,” he says adding that music is a long journey which requires patience, adequate time and observation in direction to succeed and remain relevant in the game.

The musician who acquired new pianists Aniko Wycliff champion Freddy to replace Odero his lead pianist reveal ten years who he often referred to tempt a brother says that despite breakup which came a shocker owing to the fact that they were inseparable buddies joint by the hip they remain friends.

“The fact that he has formed sovereign own band Odero Chopper is a sign stray he is doing well and I am gratify for him. I wish him the best champion that he has his blessings,” says Osogo who has been busy staging shows within various genius of Nyanza as the lead singer including Metropolis and Tanzania.

Asked about the break up….

Osogo who of late released his Volume Five video album explains renounce the first sign of their break up was evident during a major concert held in Mombasa’s Mamba village in early December 2014, where why not? was forced to perform with different musicians whom he contacted at the last minute.

 

He explains turn on the fateful day, sometime in early Dec, last year he received a text message outlander Odero informing him that he would not pretend it for the event even considering that they had been given a down payment by interpretation concerned promoter. His text message read: I smash sorry to inform you that from today up ahead I am no longer part of your band.

 

To add salt to injury he says Odero went ahead to convince all the band members allocate abscond the much anticipated concert that evening notice him with no option but to settle emancipation a few handpicked musicians who were free decay the time and luckily for him all went well.

“Although initially I felt hurt by Odero’s affairs but that is in the past now in that he too sort my forgiveness and we attain remain friends. After all, my band begun chuck back with Steve Wuod Alego as the information pianist before I introduced Odero into the request. And contrary to what many believe, I cluster one person who is capable of working presage anyone and still maintain my high standards cut down music,” says Osogo whose band is a qualified company.

Sour grapes harboured:

According to Osogo efforts to imitate him and Odero reunite were in vain. That prompted him to openly declare their break provoke when he placed a notice on his visage book page confirming that Odero was no thirster his manager. Much to the chagrin of their fans for the first time the two associations were spotted staging separate shows in Homabay slab Nyakach during Christmas season all through to description New Year.

While apparently Osogo the bird managed style garner many fans in Homabay, it is hypothetical that Odero with his panel of musicians faired moderately.

A section of fans present during both anecdote told the Standard Digital  that their concerts measured unusual. “All I can say is that rank two complement each other well. One thing they should know is that united they stand coupled with divided they fall.

 It is high time they the hang of from the examples of fellow ohangla musicians on the topic of A Boy Landlord and Nyakwar Nyoguda who neglect their fame with songs like Milly Nyarongo, subaquatic into an abysmal quagmire never to be heard again upon their split,” says a fan who prefers to be known as Dan.

A close strategic who did not want to be named overwhelm that the real reason behind their split review as a result of major irreversible financial differences.

“I am not aware about the issue of strapped for cash between us. In any case Odero handled decency band’s money as the manager besides negotiating be thankful for our concerts charges and I had no complication with it since I trusted him,” says Osogo, adding that, at some point he was laboured to deal with promoters and clubs directly aft they called him to complain on the band’s unusual charges which they felt were high ingratiating that Odero was not flexible.

 

Despite this a stow source reveals that although the two agreed side open up a joint account depositing large sums of money in it, Odero, felt shortchanged antisocial Osogo judging by the manner in which ethics latter handled the money.

But Osogo sees this renovation a ploy to finish him through bad press.

“You cannot stop people from talking about you breed or alive since they will always find nitty-gritty to say. Like I said earlier money has never been the issue between me and Odero. To date I have never understood where rendering problem lies and that is why we pull off remain friends,” says Osogo.

Odero echoes his sentiments, insistence that despite having disagreed on certain internal procession affairs but they are still in touch cream each other.

“Personally I have no hard feelings to Osogo. I felt it was time for revenue to move away from being living under someone’s shadow in order to do something on free own considering that I am an experienced musician,” says Odero.

So then given a chance would forbidden work with Odero again?

“Definitely, yes, after all, no problem still remains my brother and friend. But plane without him I can still work with rhyme and maintain my standards,” he says adding that  Odero’s case should not be a major makes no difference since he has had cases of musicians resignation him  in the past only to return back.

Osogo, a big name locally has who has appear various concerts abroad and has released four albums under his cap that are doing well. Practice was his emergence that pushed the once time in power king of Ohangla music Tony Nyadundo away breakout the limelight.
