Jidenna is one of the most playful performers you'll ever get to watch. It's just too entertaining. From minute one to minute last.And he doesn't need any help doing so.
This event was a bit different from the one I spoke of previously (Omarion254) in that I did not use my speedlite much. Here's why.
The venue didn't have much of tent cover so no place/area above me for the speedlite's light to bounce off from. I panicked a bit, as I arrived at the grounds relatively early and that's the first thing I couldn't help but notice. Such events are an automatic for a speedlite but such scenarios demand another set of "expertise" as you have to use the big spotlight that always follows the artiste on stage, to get your shots right. I got the hang of it quickly (thank God) and the fear faded away as the show went on. I'd encourage anyone that shoots concerts to invest heavily in a camera whose ISO can go really high so that such issues don't particularly worry you. The VIP area had (obviously) several tents pitched, making portraiture easily achievable. I thank God it didn't rain. Coz that might have just been disastrous, to say the least. But don't get me wrong though, I don't hate rain, I just don't like the idea of rain on such occasions. The night was a good one. The experience an even better one, the shots, even sweeter. We thank FOMO Party Kenya and Privee for making it all a success - the after party was held at Privee and yes, Jidenna did show up...wearing white tho.
I'd also love to add that Jidenna wished Kenyans a peaceful elections somewhere in the middle of his performance. Courteous.

About The Author

User Image Kesh_Nthamba - Photographer - Senior

I am a Kenyan photographer residing in Nairobi, Kenya, specialising in landscape and travel photography. I aim to travel more in pursuit of expanses within and without the country, encouraging and inspiring people to explore for themselves and appreciate creation around them. I have also received local recognition via radio and newspaper, both physical and online. I was exposed to the great outdoors at the very tender age of 7, travelling and camping at different locales country-wide, and I trust this is where my drive for exploration came from. I have my mother to thank for this. With a thirst for adventure, passion for nature and a unique creative vision, I have a knack for pulling off crazy ideas. I recently swam in a naturally formed dam in Turkana together with the locals, rock-climbed in Hell's Gate for an aerial view of the park & spent five days hiking up the second highest summit in Africa, and one of the toughest summits globally, Mt. Kenya, twice. After summitting Mt. Kenya for the second time in September 2016, I realised I am greatly inspired by rock, mountains and snow - subjects I aim to pursue for life. I am currently on the verge of completing my undergraduate studies in preventive medicine; Public Health (Bsc. Environmental Health), at Kenyatta University. I engage in creating pictorial content for sustainable development and work that goes the mile in helping communities in society lead healthier lives through health education, health promotion and awareness creation. My work encapsulates the seasonal change that grips the Kenyan landscape throughout the year as I continuously and persistently strive to passionately story-tell through both my, domestic and international travels and photographs, with the aim of telling the world about Kenya, and Kenya about the world.
