Mau Mau may be infamous for their fierceness and long dreadlocks, all part of the insurgency by Kenyan rebels against British colonial administration in the mid 1950’s. Their doggedness and tenacity ensured that the nation of Kenya would one day enjoy the freedom and sovereignty that it does today. Speaking of that tenacity and resolve, over half a century after that uprising, a group of Kenyan youth known as Ukoo Fulani Mau Mau brought an insurgency of their own – albeit a musical revolution. Tired with the lack of meaningful content, they come correct with their messages of religious, social and political injustices in today’s society. 

Yet in the midst of this radical hip-hop group, there stands a star, as bold and intrepid as the best of them, yet with a heart made tender by the sacrifice of Christ on the cross. Meet young gun Juliani. His ascent up the Gospel entertainment scene may have come rather quickly, but he’s been in the game for a minute, honing his mic skills and toning his spiritual muscle – all in readiness to serve Gospel fans a special lyrical feast. Juliani admits to being a ‘spiritual guy’ from his early years, having been raised in a strict Christian environment. Yet the message of Christ made no sense to him for many years, he was content to just drift through life, seeing where and how it would take him.
