Apparently, high flying afro-poetry band H_art The Band use music to avoid sleeping behind bars.
The ‘Uliza Kiatu’ hitmakers say they have had several encounters with police officers and that they have often offered to sing for them to cheer them up.
In an Instagram post yesterday, the band shared a clip of their band member Mordecai performing ‘Uliza Kiatu’ for a couple of officers at a police station.
They, however, did not reveal if they had been arrested or what they were up to at the police post.
They wrote:
