When Nigerian music legend Eedris Abdulkareem dropped “Tell Your Papa, Country Hard,” it was a thunderous call to action — a bold voice echoing the frustrations of everyday people drowning in poverty, corruption, and government silence. Though swiftly banned in Nigeria, the truth in the lyrics couldn't be buried. Now, that same fire has leapt across borders into Kenya — and it’s burning even brighter.
Kenya ni Home Songs has just released a powerful Kenyan version titled “Charlene, Tell Your Papa,” and it’s already shaking the political ground. A direct appeal to President William Ruto’s daughter, Charlene Ruto, the track challenges her to open her father’s ears to the cries of the people. From youth unemployment to skyrocketing food prices, from broken promises to political arrogance — Kenyans are done whispering. The song gives voice to a nation suffocating in silence and dares to ask: If the leaders won't listen, can their children hear us?
In this anthem of truth, resistance, and raw honesty, Kenyans are no longer begging — they’re demanding. “Charlene, tell your papa…” is not just a lyric — it’s a rallying cry. It's a reminder that the people still hold the mic, and their voices won’t be muted. Listen to the song. Share it. Chant it. Because it’s not just a track — it’s a movement. And the message is loud and clear: Kenya is tired. Kenya is rising. And Kenya is speaking — through music, through art, and through fearless truth. 🇰🇪🎤🔥
