Bahati, the renowned Kenyan music sensation, has long been a prominent figure in the Kenyan music industry. His early career was marked by gospel music, which resonated with a wide audience due to its uplifting and spiritually enriching themes.
However, in recent times, Bahati has made a significant transition from gospel to secular music, a decision that has ignited a passionate debate among Kenyans.
Bahati’s move into secular music has taken many of his long-time fans by surprise. For years, he had served as an inspirational figure through his gospel songs, touching the hearts of millions.
He expressed a desire to explore different musical genres and connect with a broader audience, citing alleged opposition he faced within gospel music circles as a driving force behind this decision.
A number of his fans argue that the quality of his content has significantly declined since his transition, and a recent video featuring Bahati and his wife, Diana Marua, has only added fuel to the controversy.
In a recent Instagram video, the couple portrayed a bedroom scene that has generated a considerable uproar among netizens. The video depicts Bahati engaging in suggestive behavior towards Diana while she pretends to be asleep. This scene has left many fans shocked, with some expressing sympathy for the videographer and others feeling deeply disappointed.
A significant portion of their fanbase has expressed their disappointment and concerns, contending that the couple’s recent content not only contradicts their faith but also sets a questionable example for younger audiences. There is a prevailing fear that this shift in content is just the beginning, and concerns linger about what may transpire in the future for the former aspiring Mathare MP and his wife.
