We have never covered Daddy V on GetMziki, I believe the few instances we have mentioned his name here have had to do with his “apparent” conflict with DJ Pinye and other promoters. Unfortunately during this period of bad press (although to me there isn’t anything like bad press – I call it FREE publicity) we never really got to hear his side of the story (Nor Pinye’s for that matter). So to me this whole conflict was hear say. However one key fact remains constant – Daddy V is passionate about his music and has been doing this for a long time. I met him once in Dallas at a show we had together with Jua Cali. The promoters of the show had some slight difficulty with their equipment and set up – so the delivery was awefull. Daddy V was performing before Jua Cali and a local DJ was trying to rally up the crowd as the equipment was being fixed at the same time.
After the DJ set, Daddy V didnt hesitate, he jumped on stage grabbed the flawed mic and just started blazing – personally id never seen that before in my life. The last time I was at a concert with faulty equipment the artist left for his hotel, so to me this was crazy. V ripped it with his reggae sensationalized lyrics and tones leaving his fans in awe and screaming even if half the performance was already flawed. I stood next to JuaCali as he watched this and he too realized that he will have to give it his all regardless of the poor set up the promoters had set up for these artists. To date I think if V hadn’t gotten on that stage, probably JuaCali wouldnt have either… But thats not whats important here, whats important is that Daddy V has blessed us with some new material and we will release one at a time based on demand.
Here is his hit new single Julieta (Thanks to Kilimanjaro Records and Daddy V).
I’ll reserve my personal opinion about the track for now, I am yet to critic the track so ill wait for about 5 or more comments and then give my feedback.
listen to Julieta here:

haha without the backdrop.. of him putting on a show despite being let down by the promoters, i’d have shat all over this song. but i guess the man is trying to make an earnest living. much props to him. i hope he finds that beech juliet.
i love this one.i think daddy v is the best artist in USA right now.i have been to his shows in mn,san diego,and recently in new jersey.he has a lot of energy on stage.julieta julieta.heeeeeee.this as a club good song.i give it maybe 9 out of 10.
moto kama pasi….uuuuuiiiiiiii…..takes me back to old skool in a new way.loving this track like crazy.can we please see a video for the song?…we are waiting.
I think Daddy V is trying so hard to make it to his dream bt then it doesn’t have the flow tht we fans are craving for. His voice is not tht good also bt he always give it a try on his choruses. much luv to Daddy V tho u really suck
am not a big fan of Daddy V and i don’t think i’d ever support this man. matter fact, how would he fight with the legends of the industry. c’mon now daddy V go have a life
Daddy Vee, keep droppin the hits and lets keep reppin kenya to the fullest. nice track. Peace!!
@marto.no one has ever said what exactly happened between daddy v and pinye.all is hear say and free publicity for dady v who recently at the msani awards won the best artist in usa and voted by fans.we have to recognise and respect that this dude is a force tht cant be stoped.something about him and his music that people want to hear.focus on the music and not what people say.alot was sayed about michael jackson but his music conqured all the propaganda that was being voiced abt him.julieta, that is mos def a hit song daddy v we feel you bro.

Daddy V deserves credit for chasing his dream. Many people have dreams but never wake up to chase them. This man has given it all. Lets support him to be better coz amejitokeza na na marale amd lots of energy. Keep it up Daddy V…

fire… dis is guy is pretty good… if the controversy is put aside
marto u are those type of guyz who use to wait for some to happen so that when they woke up in the morning they gat hatre writin all over them.ama rapper too.but if it was someone talk shit about your music not even music your own lyfe, how will u feel bro.
daddy vee should know that when you go up the ladder of success you will have haters and those who love you.So be blind to the haters and the bad minded people and keep doing what you are doing star.Your music is speaking for itself.Nare and now julieta.I love this song julieta and leo is doing a good job by posting such good music @ getmziki.We are 100% behind daddy v because he is the pride of kenyans living in usa.V adressed an issue about some kenyan djs not playing music from artists in usa because the music is loved by many.I followed this very closely and no other artists made a about this but they are all affected with the issue.Same way poxi pressure fought for kenyan artists.This is what they are riping right now but does anyone remember him? no.I will aways respect this man for this and I will always support him to the top.daddy v uko juu tu sana.
I know good music when i hear it and i want to say to wanjala, Kristin, marto, and obambla you 4 are Fags and don’t know good music when it hits you in the face.. trust me id like to hit you in the face.. dont go spammin your BS here its not appreciated nor anywhere else because trust me no one is listining to you. self reflect you might miss something. Daddy V I love your music keep it up bro
