Kenyan musician Willy Paul has claimed that he is the pillar holding the Kenyan music industry.

In a post on social media, Willy Paul claimed that since he hasn't released music in a while, the industry has been stagnant.

Willy Paul said that he intentionally stopped making music to prove to his fans and fellow musicians that his input plays a huge role in pushing the Kenyan music industry.

"I'm sorry fam, I know I’ve disappointed most of you by not releasing any new music. Anyway, I did all that on purpose. To show all of you how the industry is bullshit without my input. Some will differ with me but majority will take my side. Musicians have tried releasing content but waaaaapppi?"

The musician went on to assure his fans that he will no longer carry on with his ‘punishment’ to the music industry and will soon work on a song for his diehards. 

"Since I love my fans and my haters equally, I’ve decided to do away with the punishment. Giving you new music in a few days. I'm glad now everyone knows that without Pozze, the Kenyan industry is as good as dead! Lesson learnt! To all of you that kept sending me messages asking for new music, say no more."

Fans however have expressed that artists should just release good music without causing too much drama.
