On September 10, 2019, Xtian Dela sat down with MC K, a trailblazing gospel artist who has been unapologetically open about his homosexuality and cross-dressing.

MC K's decision to come out of the closet was a pivotal moment in his life, and he shared his story with Xtian Dela in a heartfelt conversation.

One of the most striking aspects of the interview was MC K's passion and conviction as he addressed the homophobia he has faced in the gospel industry. He also spoke about how his music has been blacklisted, and the impact it has had on his career.

When asked directly if he is gay, MC K refused to answer, choosing instead to focus on his music and message. The conversation was a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals in Kenya's conservative society.
