Dear Diary

‘’ No class today… Yay! Well, not for me at least. I’ll be spending the whole day in detention at the common room. Mr. ‘Korner’ is at it again, he gave me the ‘receipt’ coz I didn’t do my Math assignment…arrrgh! I don’t work with numbers that ain’t cheddar. Besides, my pops told me I’d be flying to the States soon so I really won’t need all that jive. Soooo glad I’m leaving this place. I’ve had enough of those ‘Saunya’ cats calling me at the gate. It’s had studying in ‘Ngwach’ with all the madness around the school. I think my grades

will def improve in the states...oh the possibilities! I’ll probably be the token black kid in an all white school. They’ll just love me! Now I can act like those kids in the movies without having to be criticized by anyone. I’m pretty good at it. Been polishing my American accent and it sounds good in the shower. No more Kawangware Hamptons for me (DKY they insist that this school is in Lavi.).

Alex.

RUSINGA SKOOL LINGUAMr. Korner - Mr. Connor - The strictest

T.A in school. He’s got the weirdest

shaped shoes.

Saunya - The Kawangware OBs who

pick on ‘unattended’ Rusinga kids at

the school gate

The Reciept - Detention note that looks

like a common supermarket receipt

Ngwach - Kawangware

Common Room - A study room that

doubles up as a detention hall.

From Saints with attitude, ill rap skills and street cred, Kevo Wang’ombe (304) aka Wes

Prodigy 17 years is well on his way to becoming high school’s next hit sensation. Sample videos from

Wes’ Child’s Play mixtape on You Tube.

Wes....I’ve got a different

state of mind from most dudes my age. I don’t

conform to what everyone else is

doing.”I’m from Westie, Wes is from the

word ‘West’. I cut out the letter ‘T’ to avoid being

labelled a Kanye wannabe. Prodigy is self-explanatory.

Music...I used to rap to other people’s songs until I

started writing my own stuff.

I’ve always loved music especially

conscious hip-hop You’ll definitely not find me listening to Soulja Boy. I even have a permanent Tat with my fave

lyrics on it.I get my inspiration

from everyday life. My galfriend,

family, pals, school life you name it.

My lyrics are deep ALA Lox, Tupac, Lost boyz…yeah.

New look, amazing sound and video, STL’s flow is cool on this one. She combines some hip hop elements

and the whole “jerk” culture to blend in what is a definite street banger. As always the gal gets a pass for

originality especially on the hook and the lyrics... But I’m a keeper I’m a real

heavy hitterAnd my clothes they glitter, I’m a trendsetter, follow me on Twitter...

Rating: 3 3/4

Joint: Love The Way You LieArtist (s): Eminem Feat. RihannaEm’s back and this joint is on fire! Not just because it’s Em’s twisted idea of a love song. “Wait, where you going? I’m leaving you,” Eminem raps on the opening verse, “No, you ain’t, come back...” Having Rihanna’s vocals on

this joint about an abusive relationship, super! Throughout the song, Eminem’s

voice builds and becomes flush with a mix of fondness and angered regret

from his failed relationship. Can’t wait to see the video on this one.

Rating: 4 1/2 stars

H IGH SCHOOL

MAF IAS

Undercova Dog

It’s shocking but it’s true, high school mafias are creeping up everywhere and right below

the noses of school administrations. Its so baaad that no one really gives an oink about after school activities as getting home from

school safe is a gamble in itself. We wrapped up some inside storoz from teeniez on what actually goes down and why the mafias are

teeniez worst enemy..

A hunk from Braeside and a victim of the mafias,

revealed to us that the mafias in his school

are like a family and basically their work is to

organize for fights to take place in a secluded

area within the school e.g. washrooms and even

get guys to record the fights on video which are

later sold or passed around for peeps to watch.

We learnt that guys would rather solve their

beefs personally at home than let the mafias

know since once the matter is brought to their

attention, they handle it their way. If at all they

learn of bad air around certain people and its

not been brought to their attention, the parties

involved get serious whoops and punches from

the mafias before being made to fight each

other. Snitches who report what goes down to

the admin are also not left unpunished, though

such cases are rare as no one really wants to be

in the mafias bad books!

Twist in the taleShockingly, we thought it was a dude’s only

affair. *Brenda 204, shared with us her ‘never

tell’ story. “Some dude was hitting on me but

I didn’t know that his ex was a senior in my

school. My head was hit on the wall in the

bathroom, I fell and blacked out immediately

only to wake up later to s stench all over my

body. They had emptied a sanitary bin on me!”

And you would think that’s all! The mafias

also deal in alcohol supply and sell in school,

stealing goodies or even demanding stuff from

peeps. Another shocking one we learnt of is the

‘act of slicing’. If one has hot dude or chic and

one of the mafias want this person, they simply

tell you to break up with the person, failure to

comply would lead to panel beating.

These are just some of the tales we could get as

teeniez were scared stiff to reveal their ordeals

and what they have witnessed in fear of being

tracked down by the dreaded mafias..

While it may seem bold, cool and powerful,

dangers and risks involved can be costly as one

can suffer fatal injuries from these fights! Be

warned!
