They moved on, people forget these guys were students when they started out. They took on MCRSK and won. Just for that, they are legends. There was no downfall, no drug use, no acrimonious break up or bankruptcy, they are just at a different season in their lives. If they want to come back great, if not issoke, they did their part for the Kenyan industry and we appreciate them.

[@TziheriAmboka]

Amazing comment ever

[@muthonisamuel5276]

I love this

[@jmoskat-ub5cf]

There was no downfall. Thank you . They deserve recognition for providing us with an era of great Kenyan music.

[@michaellusigi6956]

nah...they were just lazy...

[@nyanchwanis6155]

Thank You

[@planetebeautecali4485]

For me Camp Mulla was the most disappointing, their potential was International.

[@OngoriReports]

The Kenyan industry has no structure, it's trial and error

[@emilywawasi8317]

Have u done a case on them?​@@OngoriReports

[@Ondieki100]

I genuinely miss them, I don’t think they were trying to to replace Sauti sol I think they were just being themselves, I hope they manage to come back

[@safirinami]

I agree with you

[@jmoskat-ub5cf]

There was no downfall. They deserve recognition for providing us with an era of great Kenyan music.

[@OngoriReports]

Recognition without financial gains?

[@KennethWaithaka-pk5rm]

I've always enjoyed their music,and now 10 years down the line I still enjoy listening ❤

[@OngoriReports]

Great music

[@leonkimathi1985]

I really miss their music..2014 was a horrible year for me and i remember Elanis music is one of the things that got me through. Please come back together guys.

[@Joshuaratemo6178]

I guess its just life that happened, whether they make it back or not, (hope they do), they sure made a mark in the industry..

[@massculini]

In kenya without coporate endorsement deals and frequent tours the artist's career is over . Royalties cant even buy one a montly data bundles.

[@OngoriReports]

Yes, The Kenyan entertainment industry is broken

[@massculini]

@OngoriReports the industry is just good. The problem is that fans prioritize foreign music. In other words our music does not have market.

[@tonyspengler798]

Actually Brayo..the Male band member is my buddy.This 3 people are Advocates they have careers of their own..married too and have families.They might come back..but more of a HOBBY

17:38 Savara has a point. The best musicians with longevity either have nothing else to fall on or are industry plants.

[@triplebeans4159]

Or they just love making music.

[@Phillpns413]

Mazeeee in as much as napenda Savara na ni msanii mfitii sitting there and putting up such a talk yet these are his fellow musician and band gives a very different image of Savara M Kwangu ni kama ye anabambika sana hawakulive kuona greater heights of their music career. He is a sadist that's how best I can put it . Anasahau, they're living their lives atleast angewapea credit mazeee . Lakini kukaa apo kubonga vile anabonga, as an artist of his stature, is stooping low

[@alicembeke5358]

True, sad to celebrate others downfall...personally I don't find his music amusing, and all his parts are quite boring both in Sauti soul and his other collabos...that's my take🤗

Its not always about competition but embracing each other in the Industry. See Nigerians n their unity when it comes to music.If they moved on they moved! I loved them n proud of them. Wishing them the best in their new ventures.

Any group iko na madem naye ni ngumu kuenda mbali... Ilikuwa wafike place walifika... That's my opinion. They were Top Talents Though...

[@acholadaniel]

@@annewairimu1035 Sauti Sol wako Hiatus they are trying something different individually and they will be back.. I dont think Mr. Googz and Vinny Banton were group they were Artist working together most of the time. Internationally Boyz to Mens, Westlife, UB40 and so many male groups still works together and if they are not working together they are still doing music individually. Female artist wako slow na complicated and wanataka kuwa pushed sana. I am talking from a point of a Creative Producer and trust me when I tell you Women kwa creative space their seriousness iko low sana... Even in Elani Brian used to write all the songs... You can even see between Mungai Eve & Trevor who is more serious na job yake...

[@vumbisnap]

I think they thought the industry was functional and fair when in reality it's dysfunctional and unfair. When they got their royalties from mcsk it dawned on them that doing music in Kenya is a labour of love and not labour of finance. Also 2 women and 1 guy in a group never works out long term. Anyway wako sawa hakuna haja warudi kuteseka walitupea classic songs and that's enough... As messed up as it sounds.

The music industry in Kenya doesn't make financial sense... zero structures

They were really trying! About replacing Sauti Sol, I'm not sure, but sometimes, mkifika place fulani, it's not about replacing anyone; it's just about paving through and having a mark as you. I can't be under you when I have the potential. Anyway, often, huwa tricki kurevive a band. Angelia the likes of West Life, and you would come back to sing old songs.

[@UnschooledProffessor]

Few things, 1. Unlike Sauti Sol who built themselves, Elani depended on Dj Pinye to stardom. He was their manager and he played their songs on repeat pale the beat 2. Music is a career with peanuts. When it dawned that they cant make any meaningful money, they followed their classroom careers 3. Two womem and 1 gent was a flop. Women feminized the guy until he couldnt write any more music 4. Life happened. Both ladies got married and their focus moved from the gent and the group. If the group was to survive, only thing was to marry the guy or they all remain single

[@esperanzawanjiru2435]

hapo kwa marriage sana sana. no reunion will happen

[@rodgerluteshi]

Elani was a talented group but did not have a clear target audience. Instead, they went after Sauti Sol's audience & that's what made them flop

These are elitist, high minded artists and that just cant work especially in Africa...this is the thing that made these trio not resonate with Kenyans... Talent they have, art they have and charisma they have but they only appeal to like 1% of listeners... Most Kenyan fans relate to street level, rugs to riches, or still on the grind kind of artists these are some how a showcase of "look at me, am educated, smart, beautiful and my family's financially sound" that doesn't really work with most Kenyans... Do you remember Boniface Mwangi, he was actively part of the skank until he got cash from Jubilee and left the cheapies... Now no one can relate to his saleout rants... These three come from money that don't augur well with most Kenyan fans... Hawa ni wakuimbia wazungu huko Statehouse ama parties za kina Kenyatta in some hidden ranch...😂😂😂😂

Anything with women in it never has longetivity. Women always have short time lapses that expire quickly and their prime also expire quickly. For reference, check out Kalekye mumo, Caroline Mutoko, Avril etc. Then check veterans like Jeff Koinange, maina Kageni, Mejja, shaffie Weru etc. The greatest enemy of women is time.
