Isaac Mbaji an electrical engineering student has decided to focus on his musical career despite the bashings which have risen from his haters and all the bumps he has already met on his way since he made the decision to focus on his talent.
The 21 years old trap hip-hop musician, also known as Black Snow has recorded several tracks and a video to be released this week. Aside from the confidence in his talent, passion has been the biggest motivation.
“Apart from being talented I’ve got true passion for music. I started doing music in lower primary school and I did different types of music; like I was part of a choir, I did traditional songs , all in bid to know better what music was really about. I have also studied music a bit so I understand the different music notations. I have had great support from my parents my siblings, relatives, I mean everyone back at home that motivates me to never give up.” Shares Black Snow.
Despite the fact that he is not half way there, the young artists idolizes Kenyan Hip Hop Greatest of all time, Khaligraph Jones and even set him as the ultimate goal.
“My role model in music is KHALIGRAPH JONES! The OG must be respected he is ma biggest role model I salute him having most of his tracks I get power to do it ma self. Of course given the chance I would like to do a collabo with the OG and Masauti Kenyan Boy,” he says.
When he started doing music he set his own goals that he needed to achieve. Most importantly doing good music and being where he will be accepted. And the trophy being owning his own label some day.
“Having my own label means I will no longer worry about recording or video shoots that are a bit challenging to me right now. This way I can go international and maybe someday replace the OG,” Shares the up and coming artist.
His biggest challenges though, have been the expenses for the video shoots, which have forced him to delay most of the projects. He has also tried reaching out to some radio presenters to at least get some airplays but his efforts have not yielded to much. But as he says he has never dreamt of giving up.
