Comedian 2Mbili spoke affectionately about his 2017 career-defining comedy tour in the United States, calling it a turning point. Even though 2Mbili was still relatively new to the comedy scene, she initially dismissed an unexpected request to perform in the USA as a possible fraud. He was shocked to learn that a woman who loved his work was instrumental in making the tour a reality. She not only made the trip easier for him, but also paid for it, providing invaluable support during the visa application process.
Upon reaching the USA, 2Mbili was warmly received and displayed his comedic prowess across multiple states. Notably, he secured a substantial performance fee of Ksh. 290,000 for just 30 minutes on stage. His three-month stay proved financially lucrative, enabling him to offer support to his family and extend assistance to up-and-coming comedians like Shiti in Kenya. Contemplating this transformative experience, 2Mbili conveyed deep gratitude for the opportunity that had profoundly changed his life.
Upon his comeback to Kenya, 2Mbili strategically shifted his focus to YouTube, giving his channel a new identity as 2Mbili TV. Initially centered on celebrity interviews, he later introduced the highly acclaimed show "Celeb Ride," a move that significantly boosted the popularity and financial success of his channel. Currently, YouTube is the primary source covering all his expenses, marking a remarkable transformation in his career trajectory.
