Rapper Bamboo was a trendsetter before he gave his life to the lord and went slow on his music career releases.
Bamboo was the act that had balls big enough to diss half of the kenyan big stars and creating a music genre off the diss.
His Kapuka This diss track stuck in the minds of people who started classifying a section of Kenya music as Kapuka.
Anyhow, Bamboo called out a number of African artistes claiming their music glorifies Illuminati.

In a recent social media post, Bamboo attempted to demystify himself.
He wrote, “Often times there’s this aura or false glamour that covers an artist or someone who’s been on tv. It causes people to look at ‘celebs’ with a certain ‘awe’ or it causes them to feel as if the ‘celeb’ is this ‘god’ while they themselves are just ordinary people.
As if this was not enough, social media becomes the platform where everybody places their best side and hides their bad side. They post their best pictures and hide their disfunction. They pose next to the big new car and “fake it till they make it”. They create this false picture of themselves that they want the world to see, and then advertise themselves as if they have it all together and are ‘happy.’
I’m done with this facade. I have come to hate this hollywood magic that people love so much. I’m saved. I have no business with magic. The truth is that I’m not a celeb. I mean what in the world is a celeb anyway? The only ‘celeb’ should be Jesus but that’s just my two cents.
Bamboo doesn’t have any money, Bamboo doesn’t even have a job. Who is this fake image that people see when they see Bamboo? Bamboo lives at home in his parents closet. No job, no money, no airplay, no nothing. This is the place of truth, where you get to know your friends and your enemies. Its the place called Calvary where Bamboo is hanging on a cross, wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked, covered in blood from the wounds of this world’s system and totally humiliated. Bamboo is hanging, dead, nailed to a cross. That is the true image of Bamboo aka Abraham Timsimon Kimani. No glitz, no glamour, just a dead man hanging from a tree. THAT IS THE TRUTH!”
He concluded, “If there is a rap-throne in Kenya, let someone else have it. Dead men seek no vengeance and dead men have no thrones. From now on, anything positive that happens to me, just know it came from God, because dead men can’t make anything happen.
To upcoming rappers and artists, Don’t ask me to empower you, dead-men have no connections. Anything you see on me, around me, in me or hear about me is just God and God only. That’s the truth about Bamboo”

He continued, “Haters kula huu. Alafu cheki wife, alafu cheki tukikiss.”
