Listening to "I Know Myself" album by US based Kenyan balladeer Josky Suda aka OchiChi.The.Artist rhymes out a musical masterclass that in no doubt rivals some of the best of legendary artists.

Throughout the album in a classical hip-hop charisma the artist in collaboration with a group of US based artists, addresses deep rooted issues cutting across his personal life and the general society.

OchiChi did not mince his words when Ommydalla.co.ke sought to understand what informed his assertive hardcore hiphop approach in the album.

He recalls that during his stay in Kenya he planned a string of collabos with some big artists who shortchanged him by hijacking the whole deal even though the track was originally his.

“The record blew up and I was left out of the plot. It was a heartbreaking situation but I picked myself up and decided to face the mic in studio and let out my frustrations. This is the raw truth and the A to Z of how this album was born,” the musician explains and further recalls how at one time found himself behind bars just because his family was opposed to his idea of pursuing music career.

“Actually I am more than determined to prove to the world that music is in my blood and is what I love. I want to eat, drink, dress and ride music,” he says.

He started music 15 years ago as a budding producer after being inspired by the grandpa who was a singer cum band musician.  

OchiChi who has released three albums namely- MBK, Black and Real and I know Myself, believes he has what it takes to spiral his brand to greater heights beyond grandpa levels.

 And as a sign of affirming his determination to glide up the industry ladder,  this week he unleashes new track “Whats The Deal.”

Ochichi.The.Artist has his own label “ChiengWay Music” where he has signed 6 other artists under him. He plans to release more music and to become a household name locally and internationally.
