Kenyan youth are being taught bad manners by supporting artistes who release explicit songs, according to Pastor Man Kush.

He cited songs like 'Wamlambez' by Sailors and 'Lamba Lolo' as examples of music that is corrupting the minds of the youth.

Man Kush expressed his disappointment with the society for embracing and adopting explicit words and using them in their daily conversations.

He mentioned that a song could be banned in Tanzania but be played in Kenya, citing 'Nyegezi' by Diamond Platnumz as an example.

According to Pastor Kush, most of the songs done by the new crop of artistes can't be watched by parents with their children.

He called on parents to take caution of what children can watch and make use of PG settings, otherwise, we will be growing a very rotten society.

He also blamed the leadership for being corrupt, saying that young people are many and when they release a song, they get money and end up doing more dirty songs.

Man Kush ended the interview by saying that it is about time parents take control of what their children watch and listen to.

He also mentioned that there is no music in Kenya right now but pornography.

He ended the interview by saying that all media houses should also take part in banning that music from their airplay.

He also said that either the church is sleeping or the teachers who are supposed to teach morals are sleeping because one person cannot teach everyone in the country.
