The Finance Bill 2024, which includes measures perceived as burdensome by many, particularly the younger population, has been a focus of the recent protests.

Bien and Breeder, known for their socially conscious music, created 'Maandamano' to amplify the voices of the marginalised and to highlight issues affecting everyday Kenyans.

Breeder criticises deep-rooted corruption in the country, and the police for their actions during the protests where peaceful protesters were killed.
