Level 3 are those people who have kabambe phones and are more into school and home duties, these know nothing about entertainment in Mombasa but they know CHIKU,SUSUMILA, ESCO and most bongo artist.
Level 2 are most facebookers with average of 200 and 800 friend list profile. These guys know everything a level 3 knows about entertainment and they know there is a popular group called Camp Mulla but they dont know a single song from them. They can list you all know International artists but they dont know if JOE was in Kenya recently. I sometimes faall in this group when my galfriend goes bassack for 1 week or 2 weeks in most cases my phone has been apprehended or made accident with the wall. This is the group to target in showbiz and most of em r students.
Level 1: these guys know everything about entertainment in mombasa including wat goes on behind the scenes. Make no mistake this is a working class, and they mostly know wat to expect a show organised by this or that.
Cut story short: NZUMARI awards is a vocabulary in level 3, its something i know or have heard about in level 2 and level 1 its is something which some characters dont want it to happen, some people wishes it fails, sometimes i think the owner plans it in a way to answer critics but it is something i am sure is hated by 90% of the local coasterians artists. i dont know which side i am but the majority side here are haters, take for example these facebook updates from different huge figures of coast entertainment:
That is merely the updates my time could allow but almost evryone is complaining but i guess pretty much the organiser says it all by which he addresses, "HI HATERS"
Thats pretty much For Me Check SONKETTE's in mombasavibes report
"Things did not go well at this years Nzumari Awards held at Thalassa just like last year in Malindi where by artists were left stranded without bus fare and even slept on chairs and alerged that Tanzania & nairobji artistes were given better treatment than them.
Yesterdays, history repeated itself fellas.The Mc Jalang'o arrived at midnight,making the show hours late.One of the outrageous fans who showed up said;
"I was there bt hakukuwa na kitu ya maana,hata walituCon pesa zetu bure,No susumila,No sha bigy,No Lai,No esko,nothng was there,ni kuita majina tu na kupewa vidude.disgrace to the coastal muzik industry.sikufurahi ata."
Still at Nzumari, Bongo flavor artist Diamond was to perform,but he did not.This made fans even more angry and Demanding to know why they paid and Diamond did not perform as stated in the posters.It is said that he is to perform on 1st dec at seafront,so he could not do it twice.
Coast artists are once again angry about their treatement and recognition during the awards one person commented,

Coast artist Johnny skani has an issue with the organisers claiming they used his picture and name on the poster and was not paid and he wasnt aware about it,he updated his facebook status this morning saying,
"U put me on your event poster without me knowing.Just know that is a felony.......hey pliz pay me u used my name to pull yo crowd...."

The venue had like only 40 seats and the perfomance stage, oh my, it was just but a mere size of a 6 by 6 bed!(no pun intended)
The long list of perfomance that people were promised(DIAMOND, DNA, OCTOPIZO,SIZE 8,PREZZO, JOHNY SKANI, WILLY JAGUAR etc) wasnt there either. the few who performed includedDAZLAH who did one song, RAZ one song and finally OCTOPIZO.
Is this really A coast award ceremony? Why does it always leave people with bitter words to say?
We are yet to get the list of the Award winners and keep you updated.
