There are a number of media tours also lined up to talk about the video and the poetry genre in general.
Oeba plans to continue recording his spoken word pieces. “Yes I have considered recording my spoken word pieces and I shall be doing in on the beat and a song. Its high time spoken word gets out there.”

Jonny Isaya is a musical pro. His level of art is such that he can create music from anything. A 4th year music student at Moi University Main campus, he is also a music teacher, great performer and saxophonist.
Oeba encourages other artists to believe in themselves and give their best to what they do. “Looking back at history the best I have ever done was believe in me,
believe in it self is a process, believe in your own self, in your own business,you deal with it.”
