It is not the end of 2021 yet and the year is still springing up some surprises. One of these is the unveiling of Diana Marua as a rapper, let alone as a singer.
The wife of musician Bahati is now a rapper identified by the stage name, Diana B. To make matters worse, Diana Marua touted herself as the ‘Queen of African Rap’. What an insult to the legit African femcees taking music seriously!
After weeks of teasing a “big reveal”, Bahati unveiled his rapper wife on Sunday at the Trade Mark hotel.
Diana B even performed her debut single ‘Hatutaachana’ and she also mentioned that she is inspired by the likes of Nicki Minaj, Shenseea, and Cardi B. LOL!Kwani niko nchi ingine?!
“I’m doing good music, music for the soul, music for the food … I’m doing music for everybody, let us enjoy let us have fun, let us not categorise fun,” she said at Trade Mark on Sunday.
Then early Monday morning, Kenyans woke up to a music video from Diana B for ‘Hatutaachana’. In about six hours, the video had been viewed over 145,000 times.
The music video was the subject of public scrutiny for the better part of Monday, and most of the comments, especially from Kenyans on Twitter, were ruthless.
We have compiled some reactions below.

The public humiliation Diana Marua is going through right now is a clear testament of the fake friends people keep in Nairobi. Even her baby Bahati is a SCAM! You can’t let someone you love do that!!! pic.twitter.com/bR5RpbtgR2

Come to think of it, the more we bash Diana Marua the more views her song gets on YouTube that’s always the same case with Willy Paul. As much as we claim their muisc is trash we’re helping them indirectly. Sijui kama mnaniget?

In 30 yrs time we will be explaining to our grandchildren:
1. How ICC indictees became President and Deputy President
2 How Ferdinand Waititu and Mike Sonko became governors
3. How Pastor Ng’ang’a and Kanyari churches were full
4. How Diana Marua was even considered a rapperβ Victor Mochere (@VictorMochere) November 29, 2021
I would prefer listening to a posho mill rather than Diana Marua music.
