Makadem

**Makadem** is a Kenyan Afro-fusion artist and cultural storyteller whose music vibrantly blends traditional Luo rhythms with contemporary grooves. Known for his mastery of the *nyatiti* (an eight-stringed Luo lyre) and charismatic stage presence, he crafts tracks that celebrate heritage while tackling social issues with sharp lyrical wit. His recent releases—like the danceable *"Igobi Keke"* remixes, the earthy *"Muhogo Wa Jang'ombe,"* and the politically charged *"Plandemic"*—showcase his knack for merging rootsy instrumentation with modern production. Whether delivering unplugged intimacy or fiery anthems, Makadem’s work feels like a spirited conversation between ancestral wisdom and Nairobi’s urban pulse.
