Video By: Mbithi Masya

Dees debut solo single with its catchy chorus, awesome choreography and great videography focuses on the message of nont letting  this world put you down, but rather going  ahead and shining because you’re TOO GOOD to settle for anything less.

We’ve all been given the right to be called children of God; the Don himself is your dad and that’s HUGE! So whenever you feel like you don’t have what it takes, remember that you really don’t….only God does..

prestigious Highway secondary school, it is here that his love for music
deepened and he eventually took it up as one of this talents.

Although he started music while in high school, he had started writing
way back in primary school but never really thought of producing his
music. 2006 was the year that would see Dan-Gee produce his first single

he is studying Broadcast Journalism, other of his talents include poetry
and creative writing. Dan-gee has had the opportunity of ministering in
some of the high schools and churches in Kenya and for this he gives
all glory to the most high.

Dan-gee teamed up with another talented rapper James Nelian to record
two jams  ‘I Believe’ and ‘Jesus is the best’ at Full house music
studios. Critics have already approved the songs and they are set to
shake both the gospel and secular music industries.

is to know Christ more and make Him known to the world; he also
believes in the power of the youth and uses 1st Timothy 4:12 as his
backing point, He has one mission and that’s to get to heaven at the end
of the time and finding everyone there.

Dann Njoroge Mwangi (Number 8)  shares some of his spoken word pieces

*Fla(u)sh...*

He said he loved her smile and right then she flashed it
Bought her shot after shot after shot of pint then she flashed it
Began to lust at her bust-she busted him...but then she flashed it
She saved her number on his phone and then she flashed it
All was moving really fast like someone had flashed it
Because soon she became the port for his flash disk
All illusion like camera with no film and then he flashed it
Her memory took her mind back like it flashed it
Flashback of the sex, took the test then she flushed it
Said she couldn't keep no baby so she flashed it
Her spirit stood so pale like the sun had flushed it
All because on the first date the brother smashed it!

Now a cringe every time the sister sees the scissors
It's like ceasures seize her
Cost more than what she sees as Caesar's
Trying to A-xel but the C's just cease her
Drowning in inadequaSEAS that sleeze and tease her
So please, listen preachers and teachers,
Not even shallow priests can adequately reach or teach us
Coz deceit just lingers and leaves us
Vulnerable to the pressures of figures and figures
The fingers to triggers
Of our spiritual stick-ups for decamps
From the King's camp to his camp
Craving for when our every breath he cups like hiccups
I write "WE NEED TO PUT PRESSURE ON OUR KNEE-CUPS" IN CAPS
Coz we need to be still there like tree-stumps in His terms
But the beast wants the distance
Offering assistance to the least ones with the cisterns
The sisters- The system
This is them-desist them…
So the obsessions in the mere thrill and skill of the games we play-
let's trash them
Let's smash them, let's crush them
And yes, let's flush them…

In conclusion lemme say that I'm amazed at
A sight to behold and gaze at
So-called Great flirts
Seemingly Brave cats
Swimming in fake guts
burnt up like tray dust
The stray darts we throw break hearts and cause grave hurts
Yet we still seek applause 4our labor like its May 1st
So I choose to pray 1st and I possibly may fast
Coz the pain we've caused can't be hushed for life
So I tender my apology and flush my pride.
My prayer of God's tangible love is upon you
Ladies who may have fallen victim to the wrong dude
Holding onto what you thought was strong true and noble
Guyz quit livin a page at a time- life is not a novel
You need to think thru the repercussions of your actions
Coz there's more to "The game" than your ego's satisfaction!
So flash it!!!

*Vain plight...*

Lookin for God with all the wrong senses,
lookin for love in all the wrong places,
lookin for beauty in all the wrong faces,
lookin for growth in the wrong phases,
lookin for depth in all the wrong phrases,
lookin to worship with all the wrong praises,
lookin to justify on all the wrong basis,
lookin for foundations on all the wrong bases,
lookin to be efficient with all the wrong paces,
lookin to quench thirst from all the wrong cases,
lookin for victory in all the wrong races,
lookin to appeal with all the wrong dresses,
lookin to be relevant thru all the wrong crazes
lookin 4greatness on all the wrong stages
lookin to be taught from all the wrong pages
lookin for TRUTH void of God's basics
in search of the TRUTH is what this strain is
a meaningless whirl wind,more than jus a vain breeze
now pause &think..chill..get a brain freeze...
What's ur plight..where does ur confidence lie...what's ur proof??
Have u bowed to the fact that God's tha Truth...??
The pain you’re going thru, none of us can precisely feel it
There’s a wound that needs healing and none of us will heal it
The storm that you’re in, none of us can still it!
The void you’re trying to fill…not even a good relationship can fill it
Sex won’t fill it
Friends won’t fill it
Music, poetry or career won't fill it
Lifestyle, alchohol, philosophy, what not...they won't fill it
Whatever you're tryin to fill it with, you need to kill it
Coz the void you’re trying to fill…ONLY JESUS CAN FILL IT!!
It’s sad to think from where our spirits and minds are fed
So, allow me to ask: why you gon’ look for the living among the dead…?

“My name is Dann Mwangi Njoroge.

I’m 25 years old and currently working at Nation Media Group as a Management
Trainee and also in freelance TV production in: production,as a lyricist and
as a script-writer.
I’ studied Bachelor of Arts in Business Studies and Economics at Kenyatta
University. I began reciting poetry in high school (The Lenana School) in
form 1 and represented the school in the national music festivals from form
1 through form 4. I was best in Nairobi in form 3 (2001). Despite this, I
was not a fan of poetry; I actually thought it to be boring; I was rather
indifferent about it.

I began to write my own poetry in 2006. Actually, my first poem is dated
12th July 2006. I am not the “academic” or classical poet who is bound to
number of stanzas, lines per stanza, use of queen’s English or coastal
Swahili, etc. I write as I would speak on the street. My style is heavily
biased towards hiphop (I have actually been told that what I do is called
“hip-poetry”).

Simply put, God is my inspiration. All I do is founded on Him. My poetry is
based on what I see around me, what I know, what I think, feel, go through,
what other people go through, etc as it is, brought into the open through
words as inspired by God in His own time and way.

I go by the stage name Number8. This is because I appreciate the fact that
it is humanly impossible to be perfect, (perfection being symbolized by the
number 7), so I’m chasing after perfection like number 8. This is not to say
that I’m greater than God (Perfection), but rather implying that IF ever I
am to become perfect, I must decrease (John 3:30 “…I must decrease”).

I’m part of a ministry known as MISSION DRIVEN (
blog.missiondrivenministry.org). We are a Bible study based ministry who
spread the gospel through various avenues such as music (hiphop, worship,
jazz, neo-soul and some RnB-all live band), poetry, Bible study
facilitation, preaching, teaching, discipleship, etc. This is my mother
ministry meaning that Number8 is a presentation of Mission Driven. I rap
alongside phenomenal rappers, amazing singers and seasoned instrumentalists
who all inspire me and teach me a lot as we are one in faith plus most of
them have been in the music scene longer than I have. We are primarily based
in A.I.C Ngong Road.

I recite/perform my poetry/spoken word at  P.C.E.A St. Andrews’ Eve of
poetry,  WAPI, SLAM Africa (of which I’m one of the champions), Kwani? open
mic, weddings, corporate events and during our performances as Mission
Driven and any other opportunity I get, like I did a piece in the movie
BENTA in which I co-starred.

I am currently working on recording my poetry. Number8 was officially
launched on 08/08/08 in a gig dubbed “Mission Driven Presents: Number8″
which was a spoken word concert coupled with a pre-album concert showcasing
some of the songs in our (Mission Driven) sophomore album which is still in
the process of being recorded.

I spearheaded various poetry performances for Nation Media Group and a
Christmas poetry show which aired on NTV from 24th-27thy December.

My life, by God’s grace, aims at pointing people to Him. I am absolutely
nothing without Jesus.
*I am not the focus, I’m just a lens, you look through me and you see Him
better because I magnify Him.*

*Number 8; when I do what I do
I aim to do the best that I can do
Not so that I can become your next idol
That’s vain…I do it to promote faith in Him
As opposed to promoting 8th-ism…*

Peace…”
