Reiterating her position, singer Millicent Jepkorir, widely recognized as Marakwet Daughter for her acclaimed 'Mali Safi Chito' hit, affirms that she remains unwilling to collaborate with fellow Kenyan musicians. In a recent interview with a local publication, Marakwet Daughter delved into her musical journey, revealing that she does not have a particular role model in the industry. The artist underscored her dependency on God as the cornerstone of her success.
The ‘Mali Safi Chito’ hitmaker further stated that she cannot do music collaborations because God has her back and He will not leave her ashamed.
Mtanisanehe waimbaji lakini mimi sina role model, lengo langu ni Mungu atambulike kunipitia kwa sababu kuna time nilimuomba asijiaibishe kunipitia. Niliambia Mungu ajulikane kunipitia. Hiyo mambo ya role model ni ngumu kwa sababu huwezi nipata nikifanya colabo na mwanamziki wa Kenya. Hiyo ni kitu roho yangu ilikataa. (Please forgive me musicians because I don’t have a role model. My aim is for God to manifest Himself through me. I prayed to God to make himself known through me and not shame Himself. Anything to do with role models is hard for me which is the reason why I can’t collaborate with Kenyan musicians. My heart of not okay with that),” she said.
