It may not come as a surprise as most people had predicted that the KICC Reggae is love show would flop due to lack of marketing. The show featuring Jamaican artiste Kiprich of the Baby Mama Drama, Telephone Ting and Letter hits, Eric Smith and Sudanese/Kenyan based singer Dynamq was supposed to happen last Friday (7th May 2010) but sadly never happened as anticipated due to a poor turnout.

The organisers ,Worth link promoters, did not market the show exposing their naivety in the industry hence a whack show that attracted less than 10 reggae fans and a few reggae selectors. So bad was the turn out, that the guest artiste did not come to their venue but stayed indoors at their rented apartment in Ngong Road.

When it was evident that there were no more people coming in the bouncers got inpatient and asked for their pay which sadly the organizer could not afford but asked local artiste Jaguar to bail him out .Jaguar however did not accept the deal.

“Kiprich was not surprised by this outcome as he had accepted it ever since he landed and so did Eric Smith and I” said Dynamq. “This was all as a result of poor marketing from the organiser’s side but I hope the Meru show will be succesful”he added.
However Deejay Lastborn, who is the main DJ ,sounded less concern even about his pay. “I really don’t care, the organizer is mature enough to know what is right” he said. Sadly the organisers were too shy to comment on the issue.
