Brown Mauzo Dedicates New Album To Vera And Daughter Asia
Kenyan musician Brown Mauzo has released a new album and dedicated it to his wife Vera Sidika and their daughter Asia Brown.
Taking to social media, Mauzo said that the album titled ‘V’ is a special dedication to his young family and most especially Vera for being by his side since day one.
“Dear my wife @queenveebosset , this is an album that I recorded and dedicated it to you and our daughter @princess_asiabrown .
“You have been instrumental in my life since day one and I wanted to award you with something timeless…. These are my thoughts about our relationship. The album is titled “V” ( Vera ),” he wrote.
The album has 12 songs and features a number of artistes including Masauti, Mwasi, Ndovu Kuu, Baraka Da Prince and Kaa la Moto.
In the comments section, Vera gushed over the thoughtful gesture, declaring her love for the Natamani hitmaker.
“Awww this is one big surprise my love. Wow gosh…the way I’ve been so busy breastfeeding @princess_asiabrown…we love you,” wrote Vera.
The celebrity couple welcomed their bundle of joy, Asia Brown, on Mashujaa Day.
Vera revealed to her followers that their daughter was born at 10.21am and she could not hide her joy as she began her motherhood journey.
“20.10.2021 at 10:21am…A princess was born Asia Brown…You will always be the miracle that makes our life complete,” wrote Vera.
The businesswoman further said she chose to give birth on October 20, 2021, a public holiday, to allow her daughter celebrate her birthday with family.
“Since elective CS allows you to select a date within a particular timeframe, I personally chose the date 20th October 2021 so she can be celebrating her birthdays from home with family since it’s a public holiday, Mashujaa day and phewx! Curfew got lifted a few hours right after she was born. Such a blessing,” she said.
Just last month, Vera said she would deliver her baby in Kenya and not abroad as had been planned.
She disclosed that were it not for Coronavirus, she would have travelled to USA for the delivery since her visa is still active.
Barely two years after Tanasha Donna and Bey T stormed the internet to fight over a catchphrase, Tanasha has finally given details on her beef with the rapper for the first time.
According to the musician, the misunderstanding came after they both disagreed on an issue.
In an interview with KISS FM, the musician cum entrepreneur said Bey T was young and was misled by people into instigating petty quarrels.
“Honestly speaking I think it was just a misunderstanding, it started over a quote, the ‘Kenya to the world’ thing. And I like she was young at the time and like people tried instigating drama. You know how people can be… people can easily corrupt one’s mind, especially when there is nothing going on,” she said.
According to Tanasha, it is easy to have the feeling that people are out to kill your shine when starting, especially as a young girl in a competitive industry.
“Talking from experience as a young girl you can feel easily like people are out to get you or steal your shine…but I feel like she’s a great artist so she was trying to spit some bars which she is amazing at and I’ll give her credit for that,” she added.
The mother of one confirmed that they have a good relationship following their beef and now are both open to the idea of collaborating with Bey T even though the two have never met yet.
“Why not? I mean I like her music and she’s amazing. Plus, right now, we’re at a good place, we haven’t really met but we have people in common whom we work with,” she said.
Amid their banter, Bey T went ahead to drop a diss track called ‘Don to the Donna’ attacking Tanasha for allegedly sampling her music in 2019.
“Someone tell Tanasha to stop wave riding,” Bey T wrote on Instagram at the time.
According to the rapper, the phrase “Kenya to the World” originated from her, but Tanasha stole it.
Oscar award-winning actress Lupita Nyong’o made the educational dreams and ambitions of 40 students come alive by offering them $10,000 (GH₵ 75,546.42) in scholarships.
The Hollywood actress delivered a wonderful surprise at the 13th convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
Official details from NAACP indicate that the young students received the scholarships during the ACT-SO award ceremony in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
ACT-SO is a year-long program targeted at high school students to promote their growth in disciplines from visual arts, business, and performing and culinary arts.
NAACP partners with Lancôme to offer the Write Her Future Scholarship Fund, which focuses on empowering women through literacy, mentorship, and entrepreneurship.
Lupita, who is the Lancôme Ambassadress, indicated that she always had big dreams from childhood and education played a huge part in helping her realize them.
“I believe that learners change the world. I am so thrilled to join Lancôme, on behalf of their Write Her Future Scholarship Fund, to award this incredible group of women with these game-changing scholarships,” she said.
Popular Kenyan website, Tuko.co.ke, reported that two years ago, Lupita Nyong’o was nominated for four awards in the 51st edition of the NAACP Image Awards.
The actress, who did not manage to attend the award ceremony, emerged as a winner in two of the four categories she was nominated.
Lupita won the Best Actress award for her role in Jordan Peele’s movie and her second award was for Outstanding Literary Work Children for her book Sulwe.
