While some musicians claim presenters and DJs are to be blamed for impeding the growth of Kenyan music, Akothee says it’s the same presenters and DJs who held her hands and helped become who she is today.The controversial songbird says Mzazi Willy M Tuva discovered her while he had gone for Mseto tour in Rongo. She first reveals that Mzazi helped her organized her first media tour in Tanzania.“I released my first single in 2014 , I dint know anything about airplay, I was just having fun, I organised a show with afew djs I knew already @kaytrixx_ke was very supportive then, when I released my second single Pashe I met @mzaziwillytuva in Rongo when he had come for mseto East Africa in Rongo university, I played the song for him and he was like when you come to nairobi make sure you come to club tribeka, so we clicked from there, the only presenter I knew was @mzaziwillytuva , I was very ambituos, so I asked him to organize for me a media tour in tanzania, and because I dint have a manager I asked him to come witt me , then I did my first media tour with only 2 songs in tanzania, East Africa Tv, @skytanzania and @djtass treated me well, climbing the ladder I kept relationship with everyone I was introduced too by @mzaziwillytuva , he invited me to campus tour which made me realize my potential,” said Akothee.
