Swat remains among the godfathers of Gengetone music. On a quest to revolutionize the gengetone music industry, he blesses us with new music. Matire is the title of the song and has been produced by Kavirus on the beat. The Ethics Entertainment collaborators though still together, have taken very different paths in the music industry. Swat Matire and his charming wits has stuck with gengetone music because he deeply relates and responds to its enigma. As others try to unfold their style, he instead concentrates on advancing it. As the only member of Ethics Entertainment group signed under Black Market Records, Swat uses this opportunity to create more solo projects. Having been gifted with the ability to tattoo, Swat uses this skill to make a living aside from making music. Although, music remains his priority.

By Trizah \”Hey fam, hope you are all good. I am alright and will be dropping my Ep along Rider official video this week. Proudly Black Market.\” Edu Maddox captioned this on his Instagram account to clap back on music critics who claimed that he was slacking. When a fan asked Nairobi Gossip if Maddox Mkuruweng was okay after finding him in a bar begging for alcohol, this is what he had to say. Maddox seems to be the other third of Boondocks gang that has been forgotten by the industry. It\’s challenging when a member from your team sets such a high standard that everyone expects you to conform. Maddox believes that God\’s timing is the best. The public might have misleading information about the musician because he is set to drop his Ep this coming Friday titled Black Canvas. On the same day, he intends to drop the official music video for Rider. Rider is an introductory song from the album. Maddox\’s sound is dance hall fused with gengetone music. This is probably the reason why fans seem to be misled about his specialization. I urge fans to come together and show love to his upcoming project. Below is the direct link to his YouTube channel.

Written By Trizah. Black Market Records launches NFTs for the Sipangwingwi Remix by Exray featuring the Deputy president William Ruto , Shamra Shamra by Mbuzi Gang and Mapenzi Raha by Exit Band. This makes them the first music company in the history of Kenya to present their music in form of NFTs. The CEO, Cedric Singleton while shading light on the importance of commercializing music in NFT form said that this is an alternative art form aside from digital art pieces that is going to revolutionize the music market. It is the best way to sell your music without having to experience piracy or copyright abuse that is highly experienced in the industry. Another advantage of NFTs is that once a buyer owns your music, they are free to also sell to their own people. https://opensea.io/BlackMarketRecords Non-fungible tokens. Doesn\’t ring a bell? This current platform of monetizing art has made it easier to sell anything created digitally. NFTs just \’magically\’ make you millions simply by selling music, drawings or any form of art. Non fungible means that whatever you present to your target market has to be unique and can\’t be replaced in any kind of way. A musician with a million streams on Spotify earns an estimated amount of 3000 dollars to 5000 dollars according to Business Insider. This only applies to the big artists, but for upcoming ones the royalties are hardly golden handcuffs. NFTs work for all artists as long as the quality of your music is impeccable. With that, congratulations to Black Market Records for taking the step to transform the music market sector by leading the way through encouraging other ways of selling music.
