Dive into the Rhythmic Journey of Mr. Lenny on CTA - Cleaning The Airwaves! 🇰🇪
Uncover the musical tapestry woven by Kenyan Afro-Hip Hop artist Lenson Njuki Wang’ang’a, widely known as Mr. Lenny, since his debut in 2000. Introduced to the world of music by his friend and early collaborator Nelson kiama aka Dr. Paper, Mr. Lenny officially embarked on his musical odyssey under the Sratch Records label where they released their first single, "Daddy Has To Know". In the quest to share new and unconventional sounds, Lenny faced the challenge of finding studios willing to record his unique style. The turning point came at Entertainment with a Difference (EWD), owned by Jimmy, where he recorded the breakout single 'MCs.' Collaborations with Mr. Googz and Vinny Banton on the remix of 'Githurai' not only propelled Lenny's career but also reintroduced him to Ogopa DJ, connecting him with musicians across East Africa.
Building on this momentum, Lenny established a fruitful partnership with Kunguru, resulting in hits like 'African Woman' and 'Baby Don’t Go Away.' Collaborating with the late E-sir on 'Kamata,' Lenny also delved into independent projects, releasing the single 'Cash Money.' The Kenyan music scene witnessed Lenny's meteoric rise as he, along with fellow artists, toured East Africa and various European nations to showcase the richness of Kenyan music. After a hiatus in 2007 for business ventures, Lenny made a triumphant return in 2018 with 'Randa Randa' at Grandpa Records. Currently working with different producers on his second album, Mr. Lenny has rekindled his presence in the live music scene, gracing notable events like the GoDown Gig and PRC concerts.

My Big brother Lenny. Was with him yesterday. Great guy. Playing alongside him, Juacali, Avril, Jimwat, PiliPili, Mustafa, on the 2nd Dec. Shout-out to Lenny coz he's the one who plugged me on that gig
I love the way the interviewer takes time to know about the stories of the guests , for an introvert like me I love deep conversations and that's why im forever a fan of Cleaning the Airwaves
I like the way Astar says "for real!" 😂

Been waiting for Googz too. One of the raw talents from Kenya. Watched an interview yake on Mambo Mseto with Willy "mzazi" Tuva, talking about the turning point to salvation. It really changed my life.
From TikTok. Good job 👍
Ladies and gentlemen i believe this is history unfolding right here.. The making of Mr. Lenny
We were neighbors in Eastleigh ... Mr Lenny was one of the "good boys" in the neighborhood sisi tukiwa machizi kiasi 😅 ... I always admired their sibling relationship; they were close and loving as he says ... No surprises that he is a Gentleman to date.
Watched Lenny pale iko nini podcast and for those few hours you could tell they guy need to be in CTA. Hii ni 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sons get to understand their fathers once they get to 40

Wow! Only yesterday I was at a mental health event at Aga Khan and was in a conversation where we noted that unmanaged/undiagnosed mental health issues often lead to conflict. Great and honest intro from the guest.
Great seeing Mr Lenny over here. We were actually good friends as kids in the Mid-90's (in Langata).
Mr Lenny CTA is Here .Thanks Astar
