Tekno: Kenyan fans cry out after singer’s poor concert performance in Nairobi

Kenyans are crying out after paying for a Tekno concert and receiving “very little value for money.”
The concert which was titled The Wave with Tekno Miles, held on September 9, 2017, at the Ngong Racehorse, Waterfront in Nairobi.
According to fans who attended the show, the organisation of the concert was poor, and Tekno’s bad performance ruined the night, after fans had waited for many hours to watch him play.

One concert-goer who witnessed enough to write it down, said Tekno’s 28-minute performance was a “Joke”.
Writing on her website, Mwendengao.com, she says:
“After what seemed like forever, the man of the hour got on stage. It was 3am and my friends and I were finally ready to have a good time. He started off well with one of my favourite jams, ‘Be’ followed by another favourite, ‘Samantha’. I was impressed because he had a live band and I was finally enjoying myself thinking this would perhaps make up for the unpleasant happenings of the night. Suddenly, the band stopped playing and this happened a couple of times. He started using playback but this does not fix the situation as in the middle of ‘Pana’, the DJ (Crème) messed things up and Tekno stopped the song. The crowd started to boo because of all the interruptions.
“He performed ‘Duro’, ‘Diana’, ‘Wash’, ‘Yawa’, ‘Go’ and ‘Rara’ but it was all hurried. Tekno was visibly frustrated and it was sad to watch as his stage presence was great and so were his moves but it simply wasn’t enough to give a good show. I would have preferred he didn’t use the band if he hadn’t had enough rehearsal time with them. The sound was awful and there were times the band was louder than him. After a confused 28 minutes of a performance, he left the stage.
“I have never seen such a sad crowd at a concert before. Everyone looked like they’d just come from a funeral and the place immediately started to empty out. This is the most ridiculous thing though; Prezzo got on stage after Tekno. First, I did not know that guy still makes music. Second, these organizers have opened a new level in the worst concert ever universe.”
The DJ of the night, who Tekno blamed for getting things wrong has also spoken up. According to the disc jockey who is known as Creme De La Creme, Tekno failed to show up for rehearsals and that led to a failure.
Last Night was mad Liiit! On the flip side , Tekno wasn't in sync with his band, then dude blames me ..no hard feelings tho. Stay Humble 🙏
Dude tells me to dj for him 10 minutes before he gets on stage and still manages to go DIVA on me ..Sit Down.. Stay Humble 🙏
Dude didn't show up for rehearsals ..and comes to blame me ..Naaah Bro.. Stay Humble

Tekno is extremely unprofessional. The guy went out clubbing and slept the whole day on Friday as we waited for him at Big Square
Slay Queens aside, the most painful thing I saw at Big Square was this girl who had broken her leg, she came to see Tekno on crutches aki..
Tekno was supposed to show up at 1pm to 3pm. Big Square sent a car, the driver got there at 10am..waited till 9pm..Yes..9PM!!..Still asleep
People paid Ksh 5,000 VIP at B-Club just to see Tekno and the guy never showed...He bounced Jeff and Jalas on Hot 96 on Friday morning too
@cremedj Tekno shouldn't blame the Band and Creme for his pathetic performance, the guy clubbed and slept all throu… https://t.co/beh86jBjEK
Instead of performing tekno kept shouting I love you Nairobi. And that was when we decided to leave and watch him on Youtube.
Instead of wasting your money on Tekno Miles Concert You should have asked for NASA Paybill Number and do the necessary!
Maraga should nullify that #Tekno concert. Paying 4000 for a 5min performance, It wasn't a FREE & FAIR Concert. Turudi racecourse Oct 10
How those who didn't attend the #Tekno concert are waiting for those who attended for mockery....😂 https://t.co/S26UPknVE3
