Last week, a number Kenyan singers were shocked to find that the songs had been deleted from the popular video-streaming platform.
Self proclaimed African Popstar, Nadia Mukami suffered a similar fate after her top songs including Wangu, Radio Love, Kolo and Maombi were deleted From YouTube.
Kalale by Willis Raburu and Nairobi by Bensoul were also removed.
Although no explanation has been given for the removal, many Kenyan singers have suffered the same fate in the recent past due to other parties filing copyright claims over their music.
The practice has become commonplace, and is now deemed a means of clout chasing by unscrupulous dealers.
