New Age Folk Sensation Ayrosh, drops a new collaboration “Love. Respect. Repeat” featuring the sultry Ythera. A Waithaka Entertainment production, the song is a plea to lovers out there to speak the language of respect and to show sincere love to their partners.

Following the success of his other releases, ‘Shuga Mami and ‘Maheni’, Ayrosh is also gearing up for his soon to be released EP, a collaborative project with seasoned Kenyan producer Waithaka, who's currently based in USA.

To prove his point right, Otile has released a new song titled 'baby Love' which is a dedication to Vera Sidika who also doubles up as the model in the video.

In an earlier interview Otile revealed how he had recorded two songs dedicated to Vera but he had to delete one since Vera only liked one.

I did sing her a song expressing how I feel about her coz I love her. The song was called Vera and to tell the truth, sababu ambayo niliiondoa huo wimbo kwenye YouTube yangu ni kwa sababu yeye alitaka wimbo mwingine tofauti, alipenda wimbo mwingine tofauti kuliko huo ambao nilikuwa nimemuimbia coz niliimba nyimbo mbili na kwa kuwa mimi nilikuwa nimemdedicatia ule nikaona kwamba I pull it down alafu maybe when the time is right pengine huenda akatokea kwenye video kwenye hio ingine. Lakini sioni kama ni tatizo kumuimbia mpenzi wako about how you feel about her, so it’s not an issue,”  stated Otile
