The much-hyped Ngoma Festival which had been touted as the ultimate face-off between artists from two of the oldest music stables in Kenya, Ogopa Deejays and Calif Records, turned out to be a flop of the year.

The attendance during the Saturday night event at Uhuru Gardens stood at roughly between 500-800 for an event whose build-up gave the impression of a monumental showdown that would have attracted a mammoth crowd.

Some of the big names who did battle on stage were Kenzo (Calif), Wyre, Big Pin (Ogopa), Sanaipei Tande (Calif), P Unit (Ogopa), Juacali (Calif) and Nonini (Calif) who were all backed up by Gravitti band.
