NEW MUSIC: Muthoni the Drummer Queen - 'Welcome to the Disco'

The Drummer Queen has done it Again!

Her new jam is Welcome to the disco which is effectually a club banger- that's if you will agree with me. Its basically about a woman getting ready to go out, getting there and the fun of the disco. Hope the video does justice to the song.

It has that electronic-euro centric afro-fusion kinda feel thanx to Robert 'Wawesh' Kiboy who also does Sauti sol's Stuff.

What's your take on it? Holla and let us know.

SONY'S UPCOMING TABLETS

Sony's Upcoming Tablets have generally been getting quite some publicity, that is, for Products that aren't officially on the Market as Yet!

I think their strategy is to improve on the apps and specs before a roll-out in order to have a product close to market demands.

The two models S1 and S2; S2 probably seems better since the when folded can fit in the pocket.






Techland review of Sony's Tablets provides more info.

Tell us what you think, Is this just another Tablet fad soon to fade away?

Google+ already at 10 million users!

Google+ Is the social network abuzz around the globe. It's popularity has caught Google off a bit but they are working on changes as each moment passes.

It already has about 10 million users according to geek.com after only 2 weeks with numbers set to get to the 20 million mark at the close of this week.

Now, that's bound to make the hair on Mark Zuckerberg's neck stand if the progression continues.

The Google+ features seem to have capitalised on Facebook's weaknesses pronto plus creating apps which ease group chat and photo uploading.

Have a go at Google+ and tell us what you think!

NEW MUSIC

The Godfather of Genge a.k.a Nonini a.k.a Nonz has churned the video for the track 'I Got It' which feats Tobias. I know! The guy is a paul wall look-alike. It seems Nonz is not about to chillax even after a 2-month tour in the States, a month in Dubai and being the first African Artist with an Iphone - app.

Its a positive turn after all the bad press Nonini has been getting after a scuffle with a Pulse photographer. Word has it that leo he was to report back to LA police station after being booked there last week.

Back to the Video, it has good sights plus the cranck beat is on point. What do you think?

DATA-HUNGRY SMARTPHONE APPS

Hello World! This is for those of you who use Smartphones and are constantly complaining of quick uptake of data

I came across a great read with the same title, i.e data-hungry smartphone apps which is sort of a guide for navigating from those apps which 'eat' up all your data.

The general running theme for each popular app is to see how much you can get per app for 2GB of data per month.

SUBTLE TALES IN A TRAIN!

Reader discretion: This Tale may contain certain sheng' cliches, so kindly contact ur Eastlando buddy to translate. Not really!


'Imajin ati zion wanaongeza bei' somebody ranted from behind me as I squeezed my way through the narrow gates of the Nairobi Railway station to ride the 5.30pm Train towards 'D'

You all know by now that the train always has room for one more as is evident in this photo from the archive. So i got in and poxed myself kwa what used to be a toilee he he...
Enroute there, am greeted by the usual chorus 'karanga' 'njugu' 'karanga' and who am I (mimi nani) not to get myself 5 bob worth of njugu to make the ride worthwhile- at least for the teeth. Today the 'zion' has 'fewer' people meaning i have space to move about kiasi. 'Airtime nani' continues the song interjected by bars of  'Tropical tano'.

Back to the Intro: Imajin even fare for Train is going up! Your usual trip to Dandoo ama D which cost 25bob will now be 40bob come 11th July. Man! Stress. Ask the people who do Train rides and they will give you a litany of  what the extra 15bob can do- that's if they pay at all.

Once the Zion starts snaking away, the next cabin begins..........'Bwana asifiwe'   'Amen".... The Train service has began in earnest with the leader calling on the praise and worship team to take over......Back at our cabin, the students next to me review their day @ skul and how DH was glorious today. Apparently the fourth formers weren't around and the Third ones had a field day with the food.

'siku hizi rwabe ni ya Maziwa ma KaUnga tu' I'm interupted as i follow into another conversation. 'Hii forty bob nani atalipa sasa; afadhali ningoje mat na hiyo doo'. " Eeeh" I enthusiastically join in. "Ubaya ni Jam". 'Unajua Ze ze haina jam. ni teke teke.

'Ticket hapo' - the conductor has fikad our cabin and needs proof of payment, otherwise Money. Inflation is  competing with the sky and times are tough but herein are some measures you can take to cushion a bit.

We are already in Mtindwa hapo Umoja. And a few get off, a few board and off we snake deeper into Eastlando. The Conductor is of the Idea that maybe come Monday, 'Let's see' coz watu wa Kibera hawawezi lipa more than mbao so watatutetea sisi wengine. Ama Reli ingolewe...he he. surely, They will riot!

Am about to get off at K-South but not before I hear the preacher say: Haleluyah!! Pia wewe Mungu atakuonekania, Kesho unaweza wacha kutumia Train uwe na Prado. Now now, even you can say Amen to that!
