Sleeper Cells

Podcasts

The BREADSTEPPAS is a Hip-Hop and Reggae group formed in 2015 in Tigoni, Kenya. Primarily they were represented as a reggae band composed of JJSNWPRD and Ra Ny’Kang.  In 2016 they joined forces with legendary producer Mumo the Sub-Saharan and began work composing music for a Bollywood movie produced in Kenya. This led to a myriad of collaborations with local musicians and rappers including Sharama; Kimya; King Cush; Alvarez Anwar; and Fox Elijah amongst others. This collaborative work formed the foundation of the collective association of artists now known as the Breadsteppas - and the philosophy of Breadstepping. Breadstepping is a quick manoeuvre to counteract the effects of hunger by taking half a loaf of bread and crushing it down into one sandwich.

         Bread = food (mkate)
A movement colliding poetry with music. 
                  Bread = $

Mudogo - vocals, beats
Ny’Kang - bass/vox
Alvarez - guitar
Mumo - arrangement/rap
JJSNWLPRD - beats/synth/vox

You Kiss Your Mother With That Mouth - Podcast Episode 2 - Jujitsu Pants vs. Dark King Chewer

In this episode we were graced by the presence of David Mburu a.k.a. King Cush a.k.a "Chizi" -  Lead singer of Last Year’s Tragedy, performing in the band 'A Truth Once Known' and as the recording artist King Cush. He sat down with us and discussed the upcoming album release from Last Year's Tragedy and his creative process with his other recording projects. 

The young mystic Kenyan poet you have never heard of is making waves in the global rock scene. The lead singer of Last Year's tragedy since 2005 David has made deep links across the global hardcore and metal scenes. He was recently was the driving force behind the Kenyan tour of several prominent international metal and hardcore bands in Kenya as part of the This is Africa Festival. 
What makes Daivd interesting is that he pursues a unique and distinct style and approach to each of his musical projects.  He achieves the perfect blend of emo-pop inflection and emotional intensity with his music. David’s lyrical content makes a progressive leap within the musical styles from which he inflects and is on another, “galactic,” level from his compatriots. King Cush does what only few artists can actually achieve and uses the music as a mechanism for self-discovery tending to deal with the topic of spiritual discovery. A deeper sense of self can be found by the shaking off of dogma and loss of faith, and finding truth in oneself and in the universe.
