Was Waithaka Wa Jane And JB Maina Clout Chasing? Check Out Why.
If you are a fan of Kikuyu secular songs, especially Mugithi songs, you might have come across this famous young man called Waithaka Wa Jane who is a renowned Migithi artist and whose songs are not only listened to in Kenya but also in other countries.
On the other hand, JB Maina is a famous legendary artist who has been in the music industry for more than 40 decades, his songs are also nice and evergreen.
A few days ago, Waithaka and JB were in a war where JB Maina threatened to sue Waithaka for singing his songs live on stage and on the radio where he could later upload this song to his youtube channel. According to the law of music in Kenya, this is viewed as copyright.
Copyright mistakes seem just like other crimes.JB was demanding 40 million Kenyan shillings from Waithaka or 4 years of jail time for this crime. But later this issue was solved peacefully by these two artists and they agree.
This issue can be seen as clout chasing because when this motion was going on both Waithaka and JB rose to fame and later Waithaka released a brand new song that has fetched many views.
Also, both JB and Waithaka are about to release another new song which is a collaborative song. This is a trick that other artists use to gain many followers and also to fetch views on their YouTube channels.
