Kenyan rap group Wakadinali has officially confirmed that their highly anticipated album, Victims of Madness 2 (VOM2), is complete and ready for release. Fans, who have been eagerly waiting for nearly five years, were met with the exciting news when the group posted, “Mko ready kweli?” on social media.
The announcement brings an end to years of speculation and anticipation. The original Victims of Madness album was a major milestone for Wakadinali, cementing their place in the Kenyan rap scene with their raw, unfiltered lyricism and street narratives. Since then, fans have persistently requested the sequel, leaving comments such as, “We have been ready for the album since 2020.” and “I am starting to think Victims of Madness 2 is just a myth.”
The trio Scar Mkadinali, Domani Munga, and Sewersydaa has been teasing the project for years through social media hints and interview mentions. Now, with the official confirmation of its completion, expectations are soaring. While the release date and tracklist remain undisclosed, the group’s signature hardcore sound and thought-provoking bars are anticipated to make a strong comeback.
Following the news, hip-hop enthusiasts have taken to online platforms to express their excitement, with some speculating about potential collaborations and the producers behind the album. Given Wakadinali’s reputation for delivering high-energy tracks with gritty storytelling, many expect VOM2 to live up to its predecessor’s impact.
Adding an interesting historical layer to Wakadinali’s journey, producer Aress recently shared how rapper Khaligraph Jones played a pivotal role in their early career. According to Aress, Khaligraph covered the cost of Wakadinali’s first studio session, which ultimately led to the creation of some of Kenya’s most iconic rap tracks. “Khaligraph came to me and told me that he had listened to those guys rap and really liked them, so he was going to pay for their studio time. I couldn’t believe it I was asking myself, who are these people that Khaligraph would pay for their studio session?” Aress revealed.
This revelation highlights the interconnected nature of Kenya’s hip-hop community, showing how established artists like Khaligraph have contributed to the growth of emerging talents. Now, with Victims of Madness 2 finally completed, Wakadinali is set to deliver yet another defining moment for Kenyan rap.
As fans await further details, one thing is certain Victims of Madness 2 is poised to be one of the biggest Kenyan rap releases of the year.
