In 2006 the Tusker project fame show was based in Kenya, None the less it was unfortunate that endamol disqulaified Renee Olende for saying she voted for Nakayaa over Tina because she felt Nakayaa's performance was better. It was so strange how her eviction was not shared with the public who vote for her that week and lost money. Truth be told, the girl displayed some serious talent - if you looked past the personality that the show protrayed of her. Kenya missed out then, lets hope she will come back to the music arena blazing.

Like most rap artists around the globe, Teria Yarhere a.k.a Mtrill knew that he had the tendencies of putting words together to form rhymes before he ever knew he could rap. So when he embarked on a mission of writing lyrics for his elder brother, little did he know that he was laying a foundation for a career that will bring him this far. Born into the family of Mr and Mrs Yarhere on the 18th of May 1979,Mayjah thrill joined the hip hop movement when he was in Federal Government College Odogbolu. Although he knew how to rap, he was never on the fore front, instead he began exerting his energy into organizing hip hop shows.
