According to Roma, the musicians are fading out simply because they are still living in the old school era without considering the changing times and audience.

The rapper who currently resides in the United States said that the musicians are losing out on shows because of their poor delivery. He cited lack of rehearsals as the main issue.

He further noted that some musicians have refused to learn hence disrespecting fans.

“Muda wa rehearsals tunao lakini tunashindwa kutumia vizuri. Ina dossapoint….kuna shows ukizitazama zinadissapoint...tunsahau mashairi...unaanza tena kutoa hotuba..kelele za mikono juu zinakuwa mingi,” said Roma.

He noted that international stars like Snoop Dogg are still connecting with audiences despite their long dominance in the music industry. He advised old school musicians to go back to the basics, and deliver based on changing times.
