Matatu comes from 'Mapeni Matatu' means three pennies, which is what Kenyans used to pay as far back in the 70's

True

A matatu is the name that's given to all the public service vehicles i.e the buses,the 14seater vans,all...whether having art or not. The public service vehicles that have art,loud music in them are called Nganya. But all are still matatus

U talked about the "matrix " in one of your last videos in USA. In this video u c a "Matrix " matatu. Like the bible the say,"the power is in the tongue." Salute 💯

Wow, the matatus have evolved! I lived in Nairobi around 20 years ago and back then Matatus where all the size of a minibus like the one passing by in 06:38 . Kibaki the president back then, had made a new law, that all matatus had to have a yellow line in the middle and only 11 people (as far as I remeber it was 11 ...) were allowed to ride them. The loud music has always been a thing, also with the small ones back then. Before Kibaki, the matatus where in all sizes and the people allowed on where limitless, so it was also more dangerous, if the driver wanted to make more money, he would allow more people on then there were seats, and they would stand inside or hanging out the side door. - I hope you can understand my english.

If you look around you'll find matatus with local Artist names and images. Like the white matatu she was standing next to had a image of mzee ojwang a kenyan comedian who passed away. And there are many with images of other popular kenyans. You have a matatu written OG on the wind screen and has a khaligraph Jones image at the back. You have a red sauti soul matatu! But there are not many popular kenyans around. Unless you want to put politicians on your matatu as well! But there are many matatus. So do they get like 20 matatus with khaligraph images to prove they like locals as well? No they Can't . Remember the competition is about creativity and originality. So naming your matatu khaligraph while there are other matatus called khaligraph isnt a good look. So you get names from outside. From movies and shows. From cartoons. As long as it makes it easier for people to differentiate your mat from others. You get?? It's not about not loving your own!

@@user-mv9zi3qc6b There is a lot of inspiration to draw from but the mat industry is basically for the teenagers . Folks decorate the mats according to what the teenagers are into. And hip-hop is something that is dominating entertainment all over the world. Especially American hip hop and American movies. So that's where they get their inspiration from. But it does not mean they don't value their own culture or African art. In fact if you get in these mats the music you'll hear most often is Kenyan hip hop and Nigerian and south African music. Which shows how much they love African music as well as art. And no what you said didn't strike a nerve. I do not get affected by such comments. I find them interesting and educative. But honestly I don't see anything wrong with Kenyans getting inspiration from African Americans or other blacks from around the world and showing appreciation for their art and culture. Don't African Americans and blacks in the diaspora get inspiration from Africans as well? If it was white celebrities and European culture being celebrated on these mats then I'd have a problem. But not this!!
