Vanessa Akinyi, a Kenyan comedian turned rapper known as Cartoon Comedian, has finally spoken out about what happened between her and fellow actors Steve Mogul and Diana Daisy.
Cartoon was candid in an interview with Mungai Eve, revealing that the split was amicable and that the two needed to grow their brands.
“Tukianza kushoot everyone was a comedian and had a life… kuwork na wao it was the best experience ever. They are nice people and have good hearts, but ikafika point, they needed to grow their brand.”
Though she was taken aback, she stated that supporting one another was the least they could do.
“They just wanted to grow their brands on their own, and the least we would have done is support each other.”
Cartoon confirmed that she was cheated on and that it was not a publicity stunt to promote her song.
“Niliumizwa, lakini ni sawa tu, uzuri najua kujilove.” “Saa hii niko single,” she added.
Nonetheless, Cartoon did not provide any details, stating that people should listen to the song to get the gist.
The comedian previously stated that her new song cost her Khs. 2.5 million, which she broke down, saying she wished she had made better financial decisions.
“Kubreak down itaniuma, juu zingine niliwaste. Nilikaa chini nikasema, Cartoon, hii location fee ungepata tu kababa fulani umdungie tu 3K,’ lakini nikasema apana, coz I wanna go hard on music, let me just use my money.”
The mbona unacheat artist revealed that the shoot location cost her Khs. 500,000.
“Location ilinicost half a million. I just used money, yenye ata zingine zikumbuki.”
In a nutshell, she explained what the goal of the song was,
“The song was more of advising ladies na madem wako uko nje wanatry kugrow, ni more of telling them vitu kama hizo zisiwaingie kwa roho, iyo kujilove iko na purpose.”
“Badala ya kufocus na kuachwa tumove on na kujilove, na have a life of your own ata before having a life with someone else,”
