BACKSTAGE PASS: UNCONDITIONAL LOVE- DRIFT AWAY IN KELVIN K DEBUT SINGLE…






“I want to be part of the movement changing the music scene in Kenya!”

I met Kelvin Mwangi; better known as Kelvin K at Daystar Athi River campus. I overheard him tell a pal about his new single and I got interested. Moments later; we were at the school dining hall on a table; me on the other side; asking questions and Kelvin K answering them. Oh, wait a moment; we call that an exclusive interview!

His debut single is an exceptionally fresh love record; mellow and an enjoyable listen. Unconditional love is an afro- house tune with this catchy hook and tempo one can pick up to easily; and find yourself grooving too. Guys who have listened to the tune argue it has this Liquid-Deep touch to it.
Kelvin K reckons that he started his singing career while still in high school. “I was 15; then at Mt. Kenya Academy; where I learnt vocal and piano lessons. A year later; inspiration to write my own music took over!”

The tempo and catch hook to the tune does fuse a great song- writing skills. It is simply a simple love song; a simple love story going back to that “unconditional love!”
Kelvin feels this is his year and time to shine. And with the debut of his new single featuring H.M.Z (another artist to watch out for); he ultimately is working on releasing an album mix tape dubbed “Self Realization” which to him is significant in the sense that he has realized himself as a  versatile artist.
Listening to the single “Unconditional Love”; it sure is a potential of exposing both H.M.Z and Kelvin to the international music world.

The song is produced by Alex Red; another Hip Hop artist Kelvin asks me to watch out for. It was done is a simple room studio.
So how does he balance school work and music? He admits it is hard work but he has the whole week to think about books and the weekend to do his music.
His ongoing project-“The Self Realization”; will explore many genres beyond R & B and Afro-house; to bring out the versatility of kelvin K.

Any exclusives? “Yes; I am working on my next single titled- “Good morning” which will be out soon. And I am also planning to shoot the video to “unconditional love” in August.” He adds.
Kelvin K is definitely a force to be reckoned with in the future and he is one of those artists to include in your collection.
