Rapper King Kaka has hinted at turning the latest political controversy into music.
His move comes after a politician came under fire over branded underwear ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The ‘Wajinga Nyinyi’ hitmaker reacted after reports emerged that women in Kirinyaga had received underwear branded with the name of Senator Kamau Murang’o, sparking a heated conversation online over political campaign giveaways.
The unusual merchandise quickly became a talking point on social media, with Kenyans poking fun at the development while questioning the message behind such campaign branding.
King Kaka joined the conversation, saying he was heading to the studio to make a song.
“Politicians now branding panties za voters. Acha niingie studio,” the rapper wrote on his social media platforms.
His remarks have raised speculation that the bizarre political episode could soon be turned into a musical punchline.
King Kaka is known for using music to comment on politics and social issues.
His 2020 track ‘Wajinga Nyinyi’ attracted widespread attention for its criticism of political leadership and Kenya’s political culture.
With the 2027 elections still months away, the latest incident has added a humorous twist to the increasingly creative ways politicians are seeking to connect with voters.
And if King Kaka follows through on his studio plans, the controversial underwear could soon move from political merchandise to a memorable line in a Kenyan song.
