THE SPACE REVEALED

Hi there!


Thought it would be a good idea to sort of demystify THE SPACE and elaborate the concept a little further as we continue to appreciate your undying support thus far.


  • Welcome to the space!


THE SPACE is a unique & dynamic show which embraces the artiste as both a social and cultural ambassador in today's society. THE SPACE also addresses key issues which face the average youth within the contemporary Kenyan setting.


Hosted by Kaz and Mwafreeka (seasoned artistes and cultural ambassadors in their own right) , this show promises to re-awaken our social conscious, to inspire and provoke us into a higher level of awareness pertaining to matters to do with leadership, youth empowerment , entertainment and much more.


Every week has a new theme in store, in which we engage our audience to contribute their views through interviews and continuous interactions on this blog and our social media profiles on Facebook - thespacetvkenya and Twitter - @thespacetv.


The topics range from governance, entrepreneurship, crime, to music & the movers and shakers in the entertainment industry.


  •  So why choose the artiste as a cultural representative of the youth?


Artistes, be it in the music , film or the performing arts arena are influential & their work often reflects what's happening on the ground. The message that they communicate in their art form is easily absorbed. The public respects and admires them, more so when they exude positive aspects in their character and brand. Their outreach is wide and has a powerful impact, thus artistes make the best cultural leaders so to speak, and can make a positive difference within their communities given the opportunity.


  • When will you feature my MP? I've got major beef with this idiot!!
Here at THE SPACE, we do not endorse politicians or political experts as the only source of leadership and guidance in Kenya. We recognize that the youth have the majority voting power and at best, are capable of making intelligent choices based on good leadership and democracy when the time comes to do so.


In the past, young people have been misused by dubious leaders to intimidate their communities in a bid to fulfill misguided political ambitions. The economic downturn, unemployment & bad leadership are some of the issues that have strongly contributed to this disturbing pattern. We hope that by bringing these concerns to the to the forefront, we can find lasting solutions and empower our audience , you, so that we can make educated choices in future.


  • The youth, leaders of 'tomorrow'.


News just in -tomorrow is here and now!
This is a platform that is specifically geared towards providing a voice for the youth and revealing mentors with whom the youth can identify with.


Recorded with a youthful studio audience of 70 drawn from various parts of the country; cultural ambassadors and young people freely share their views and experiences on diverse matters such as civic participation, identity and job opportunities.


We are the majority and it's time for the majority to rule!!
