DJ EDDY BECOMES THE FIRST REFUGEE YOUTH TO PRODUCE AND DIRECT A SONG
Eddy Charles better known as Dj Eddy is a refugee Music producer at a new established CBO known as Lafrikana .It should be remembered that Lafrikana is CBO that is really coming up so fast with support from the Mp of Dagoretti South and Xavier Project in one way or the other .
Dj Eddy has been the talk of the Lafrikana CBO as he has proven that being a refugee cannot hinder him from achieving his dreams .
His passion for music is undoubtedly on a whole new level , Personally I have visited him at the Lafrikana Studios and the effort he puts during the recordings is just amazing not forgetting the numerous time he educates artists that visit him on how to create a good song despite the many challenges of Life .
Dj Eddy becomes the first refugee youth to produce a song and direct its video and actually the first youth refugee producer to be featured by Youth Voices Of Nairobi .
Dj Eddy doubles production and directing as he understands that a good song corresponds a good video hence more often he feels a need to get involved in the two tasks .
You can check out some of the songs he has been able to produce in his youtube channel :DJ EDDY MAN i.e Amina by Folosa Bounty , Niinuwe by Benson ft Stanley , Instrumental by Stanley , Time ya praise Devil by Qutie Faith , Just jiamini by TMN , Dagoretti All Stars and many more .
From our YVN news desk we wish Dj Eddy all the best in his music production journey and appeal to anyone to support this great talent .
