NONINI’S HANDLERS: HE IS NOT VIOLENT

After a section of the media published a story detailing an altercation between rapper Nonini and a photog, his handlers sent out a release denying anything like that happened.



It read:

“We are saddened by the recent articles published in one of the tabloids on 7th June 2011 in relation to the public character of the above artist ‘Nonini’.
It was portrayed that the artist is a violent person and that he was involved in a fight at the Rangers restaurant during an evening out. The artist named is not a violent person; neither did he get involved in a fight at the said restaurant. Witnesses at the venue can counter for every detail that happened that night.
We are thus saddened that an Editor of a renowned magazine plus their reporters can publish such lies and insults. Morever, this story led to reputation damages to Nonini and on his brand. Nonini is currently working on final touches for his movie Killer Moja which will be released hopefully on 2nd October, 2011. The above matter has in one way or another affected the execution of the above project.”

Anyhow, Hot Secrets talked to Pius Cheruiyot (a photographer for Pulse Magazine) who claims, “Nonini hit my camera and damaged it, then I was like ‘What is happening?’ He started pushing and shoving me till I fell and hurt my head and chest.” Pius adds that the right side of his lip was bruised and bloody.
“I have reported the matter at Langata Police Station and waiting for action, “ He continued: “What he did was not good and he should have asked me to delete the photos if he did not want me to take them.”

BLACKSTAR "DISAPPOINTED" AT NONINI'S NO SHOW

Apparently according to a release sent out by the Blackstar management, The Godfather a.k.a Nonini pulled a no show at a Kenya Night show.
The statement reads: "The management of Blackstar Entertainment, and Coco Base Club Thika would like to express our disappointment in Nonini for not performing at the Kenya Nyte event held at CocoBase Club in Thika, on Saturday 5th February 2011. The event, which is the brainchild of Nonini, had been organized in conjunction with Blackstar Entertainment, and was to be the first Kenya Nyte to be held in Thika, however, Nonini failed to hold up his end of the bargain by refusing to perform.
We don’t appreciate Nonini’s lack of professionalism by blaming Blackstar Entertainment for “Breach of Contract”.
Blackstar Entertainment would like to apologize to all the fans who came to show their support, both for Nonini and Blackstar Entertainment.
Blackstar Entertainment still is and remains your Multimedia Solutions Provider, delivering quality multimedia solutions to all our clients."
