Musicians from all over africa explain how the 19th affects the work. Now lets get the ball rolling in kenyas capital nairobi due to the pandemic the citys on their care few between 9 pm and 5 pm obviously this affects the cities and thai and mike life who want to go out like clubs are closed on working doing the night like taxi drivers food seles and sex workers are finding it difficult to make a living every one either come on he stepped out of nights to find out what they have to say on a typical saturday night in nairobi you might find yourself in traffic and thats probably from people who are trying to get to events or maybe to a club before happy hour ends and that industry the Service Industry has been deeply affected since a coffee was imposed here because of corbett 19 so what happens to all the servicemen and women who rely on the activities of the night to fend for their families well i want to find out which means be going club hopping today. Ok some of our 3 invites you into what we call a local joint the name suggests its a neighborhood pub but all these people we were seeing here must believe in less than an hour and i want to find out from the owners and the people who work here how that time crunch has affected their business. On a normal weekend outside of a few restrictions what would it look like the. Double the one that youre seeing. Right now with things. In flux right now as you speak. Ready to go home you still have staff who have families to be sustained so how are you working that out so weve come to an agreement that we must be able to make ends meet for. The business. So what were doing is that weve. Found some people who are also saving one to give us their opinion about the curfew and how its affected them and their party and coffee is affecting us very much as you. May believe. Because of time. Every single city across the world has that one place that has that one specialty that you just want to eat after being at the club and gain a ruby its no different but these men and women who prepared these dishes are now being forced out of work and i want to speak to one of them was just actually closing business how life has been since the curfew before before i would open from around 5. Out by our own 2 buckets of meat produce and now im buying about half a bottle. Its truly unbelievable to think that this is a space that was so vibrant about half an hour ago but this i suppose the fact of the curfew the time now is 2117 and im just going to walk you through some of the spaces weve been through so that you can see the difference this is the pool table where just a few minutes earlier there were people milling about having a good time thats the backyard garden where we were. And the noise that were hearing in the background of the few Staff Members who are left to lockdown and some of them actually have to sleep here because of the curfew for the neighbors its really good news because no noise from 9 pm but for the owners it must be really stressful because theyre literally having to shut down 8 hours before theyre normally used to this is usually the time when people in nairobi leave their homes to come into the pubs. This is a state of affairs right now were just about to complete our tour of the nightlife circuit and one thing crossed my mind as were driving through these streets i notice that theres a Significant Group of people missing commercial sex workers we might not like to talk about them or even admit it but they do depend on the nightlife and obviously now without any supply or any demand theres no need for supply but the question is what are they now doing where they are. And i tell you this night work is good so you can get lucky sometimes and make up to 2000 shillings when workers can get up to 1500 when its really bad you get 1001 on average is the biggest difference from give me an idea of what used to make then and what youre making now with this side hustle. A look right now im selling but he has and its not paying i can get 300 shillings and my kids upcountry i can only keep 50 shillings to buy some food and the rest im sending it to them i cant eat a lot. My house is actually about to be locked because all of them 18000. 00 in those and. So weve just been speaking to all these people who depend on the economy to basically have a livelihood and this story is a very heartbreaking but its got me thinking what would be the long impact if this cause he was to be extended well beyond strange and were now coming to what i call it. Where people. Can speak so were talking about a very dramatic. Expansion can. You look. For it all the government. Well i mean its always risky speaking to an economist isnt it because you never know if what theyre going to tell you is going to be good news or bad news but thats a serious dose of reality and i cant think of a better way to conclude the special on the night economy here in nairobi but as i mentioned in the interview it really could be any major city across africa and i hope that this information favorability thank you for watching. Thanks needed for that information now from kenya in the east lets now head to the gambia in the west on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean our very own resident is just produced a new song about the pandemic exclusively for us. A little. Longer for this so much panic indeed. Government taking last minute measures to keep a concept just couldnt cope with the insufficient meaning to doctors with no mass to wish for the schools have been closed so no class this year was such a slow so no give moms and pass to see if state of emergency is a catastrophe shut down nonessential business is now the cashier lets get in on the fact that they broadcast quite possibly. Be said to list every 15 investment asterisk its just we all. Want to hear from the president but he acted. 500. 00 Emergency Fund should be invested to begin dollars to help. And it seems like a big deal to me in the seat dimensions paramecium of course the poor feel that more cant lock down things we cant afford to stay at home 50 do they wont keep some up to speed as she cast power no water for a day trying to keep my hands clean i see them taking the fairness out on no one makes me we all hope in play we get for the facts seem. Strong cold. Feels this cold is now. Coming from. That. Cold front. A scaling it on the track always great to have you want to show lets get back on track when i dont like the guys. All around the continent continue to struggle from the facts of covert 19 so we asked ace and a few of the artists you may know how theyve been dealing with the Current Situation in. This crew now has really affected me as an activist because i have shoes i have tours in the u. S. I toss in europe. I have to go to london to be with my family for a while in order to and all those things getting come on because of the night and because of the law going out to be inside and and. Stay safe. Has really damaged a lot with you know music in the city specially when it comes to income as many artists out there with night want performances bookings travel you know to actually make money you know for themselves and you know take it up so. Right now is the time to plan for example like. Me being an artist well weve been able to move on like everything you know is mine everything digital i think we havent had a chance to really sit down and. Introspecting you know think all this differently get the idea its been a very interesting time for you know us to think to read what i mean looking within our borders in america and i think we need to slow down a little bit for us to be drained ourselves. Were not coping back of course i would never meant in certain departments that made it easy to create relief funds we were able to draw some money but that is not even enough but. We should not be complaining because everybody there are people who are in worse situations than we are as musicians and think a hole in the cover one thing that everybody in this country has been very difficult to be isolated from friends colleagues and musicians that we work with for such a long time but i do believe that the conflict 19 is a temporary inconvenience and the child pass. The corner virus is really terrible its a bad pandemic its affected our of life its affected our economy. The Music Industry is no different really and i think in my opinion the Music Industry is the most hit because at the moment we dont have International Travel and as a musician we know that we have to travel and so on and from rust as well look. The last gig that we had was sometime in. March and really thats really terrible for any musician if you are performing if you dont mean a lot of gigs thats really really bad full force of the moment. So the last president outside meant was stocks demon from rust its this guy hes the lead singer of the band doing it very rare is an hour of African Music metal stocks the one welcomes us in his hometown gaborone in botswana where hes part of a growing scene that is putting african metal family on the mom. Rust is one of what swan is best known heavy metal bands their hits 8 amole is an anthem make and social pressure to conform rust believes metal music encourages an independent attitude. That will give you the balls and the courage to just see it as it is this in exile is the major of its aggressive music and you just dont understand why somebody doesnt get it then after a while just realize you know what im just there in the gate im not going to do whatever society dictates and theyre going to conform to this rules im just going to be a felix machine and just go on and listen to no one seek my own path and thats it. When rust takes to the stage the crowds excitement is palpable. Although heavy metal has a relatively small following in botswana the country has a reputation for its passionate fans and a unique cowboy style like stocks the fans believe that powerful music and pawnshop for doc low that is often misunderstood as evil. People and we care more about that. What if we dont act and that. People believe. People sometimes people so thats where the uniqueness comes in because we turn out to be different from what from their view. The next morning front man stocks dress up for a very different role his corporate job while stocks would love. Although heavy metal has a relatively small following in botswana the country has a reputation for its passionate fans and their unique cowboy style like stocks the fans believe their powerful music and pawn shop for dr holding is often misunderstood as evil. People and we care more about that what. We term as and that. People believe. People sometimes people so thats where the uniqueness comes in because we turn out to be different from what from their views on. The next morning front man stock stress is up for a very different role his corporate job while stocks would love to pursue a career in music full time at the moment he needs to support his band financially in botswana heavy metal isnt a big moneymaker the genre gets almost no air time on radio or television and proceeds from live gigs barely cover the costs of organizing the show so to finances rock star lifestyle by night stocks works as a bank manager by day starts to amongst the goes crazy and you know i just unleash all sorts of energy that i feel at the time especially when the crowd is going wild i also go wild you know insanely. In the corporate world you conform to the rules of society. Stucks moss to flee navigates both worlds and enjoys the perks of each. With. The underground metal scene in botswana thrives on the passion and creativity of its members nobody is in it for financial gain everything is selfmade and funded from the outfits to the songs and the concept. That even though the bands like rust conch make a living from their music they are at least completely independent no one tells them how to play or what their songs should be about. If. Abuse of power has been happening in africa you know lead in powerful wrong in that nonsense i can talk about it if you want to talk about the 1st world countries or the western countries coming to africa to get older its all says fuck it im free to talk about it and i would do that. You. Know its a really good. Role pure and independent africa is sometimes described as heavy metals last frontier but in botswana heavy metal has gone back to its roots and its found a passionate home. Well now that is a lot of very rich because if you just saw was one of the last before the cuban 19 pandemic broke out and spread across africa now when you go to concerts like these you might meet somebody you like right you could get into meets and you may wonder. When is the best time to have sex with this new partner for the 1st time well rested in sex for it. Hello everybody and welcome to the thread a safe space where we get to discuss everything that and relationship today. Question is a bit of a heartfelt one coming all the way from ivory coast from a young lady by the name of mariam born to my pm her question reads hey cat so ive been dating this guy for about 3 weeks now i really like him we have almost everything in common we also have really strong sexual chemistry but im worried that if i sleep with him he will leave this is happened to me before so im trying to be more cautious going into relationships my question is when is the right time to have sex with a partner for the 1st time thanks for your question mary im the same with relationships that every encounter you have with each person you date will be different and theres no hard and fast rules when it comes to having sex with a partner for the 1st time and you shouldnt have to carry the burden of an old relationship into a new one if what youre looking for is longevity then give it some time see if he sticks around he sounds like a decent enough guy and as cliche as this sounds only time will tell there are a ton of things that you can do to ease a sexual tension so you dont feel like youre missing out on anything while youre still getting to know each other better send each other sexy Text Messages explore ways of being intimate that dont involve physical touch long sexy phone calls right before bedtime intimate dinners under the stars you may even decide to get physical without actually having intercourse the list is endless and this can go on until you feel comfortable enough to have sex with your partner keep in mind many of us struggle with the idea of possession were always trying to find ways to keep our partners the fact is you cant make somebody stay if they dont want to you can only be authentic with yourself and hope that in doing so you will attract like minded people at the end of the day and in the wise words of rumi what you seek seeking you when you feel ready to have sex with your partner for the 1st time go ahead and enjoy the pleasures just remember to be safe and go in with no expectations other than enjoying the experience from the cows til next time.
