But why do they do this one might ask? Well, to understand why Kenyan women love throwing panties at artistes, we must first understand why women love musicians. We must understand why even the artiste that looks like Mugabe will still get laid.
Since the creation of planet earth, men have been divided into two groups—the musicians who get all of the chics, and the rest of us. Let’s be real for a moment. It's no secret that musicians, even low rent ones who still "crash" in their parent's mansions and demand 'kuongezwa food' by their mamas, fair significantly better than the rest of us non-musical mortals in pulling chics. Of course a writer like me will get random women from time to time but the frequency can’t be compared to that of an artiste
So why do ladies give musical geniuses much more validation than all other forms of artistes such as painters, writers and photographers? Well, it’s simple. Musicians have a greater reach than the rest of us. You probably won’t find a woman that doesn’t like music but you’ll find of women who don’t like reading articles or marveling at paintings.
Women will chase the musician-type for all of her youthful years even though such a guy will never be her boyfriend. The smitten Muthonis and Ayangos swoon at concerts, throw panties and imagine themselves in bed with the hit makers. Oh dear.
Musicians also carry with them their bad-boy, flaky and unsettled aura that makes them more desirable.
So yes, women love musicians but the Kenyan female fans are on the obsession level. To the big question again. Why do they throw panties then? Here are logical reasons for that
They buy the panties at Gikomba
Yes, the panties are probably cheap I am pretty sure that a Nairobi chic wouldn’t throw an expensive panty at even Drake. The only reason she aims it towards the face of the artiste is because she bought it at Gikomba or Muthurwa for 50 bob. Note that she possibly bargained since the price might have originally been around 100 bob.
It’s their way of discarding old and worn out panties
Maybe they see the stage as the most convenient dustbin. Just throw it there and whoever is responsible for cleaning will pick it up later
Maybe it's the pombe
Blame it on those chics who get drunk after two shots. Or the chics who mix sheesha, Smirnoff Black Ice and weed at the same time. May all of you be forgiven.
They are emotional
Kenyan women are as emotional about music as they are about everything else. You have to have some sort of soul to write music, or at least to perform. It’s assumed by women that most men who play music are in-touch with not just their feelings, but their innermost desires and passions.
The idea that the man at the stage sat down to write soulful and profound lyrics is more than enough reason to get a woman to aim her panties at the performer without even thinking twice.
Musicians are Royalty
We don’t have kings and queens, we have musical gods. Respect and authority is placed on men who can sing ’chini kwa chini’ than men with good lineage. Musicians are worshipped because of the fame and money. So throwing panties is just a form of worship.
