MAYONDE QUITS SECULAR MUSIC

Kenyan singer Mayonde put up a social media post hinting that she has ditched the secular music industry. In the post, the singer shared photos from her vacation, giving thanks to God and said she is returning to the faith having seen a lot in the past year. “Lamu photo dump as I give thanks for the hand of God in my life.

A prodigal daughter returning to the faith, I’ve experienced more beauty, love and abundance in the past year than I have in a decade. Ooh, the glory! It’s all coming together as I let go of the striving and receive the kingdom. I have tasted and I have seen that the Lord is good,” she wrote. 

Mayonde was on vacation with her husband Mbithi Masya. In a past interview, the musician gushed over her husband, noting that she doesn’t regret marrying him, adding that their relationship changed for the better over time.

“The best thing about marrying my first love is growing with someone and seeing them grow into themselves. Understanding how money and intimacy grow together,” she said. “The relationship has changed but it has changed in the sense that we know each other better now. Knowing what pushes their buttons, knowing their mood.”
