What began as an anniversary gift for the Wajesus Family has evolved into the music group known as Dominion. During their 6th anniversary, Kabi wa Jesus penned a love song dedicated to Milly wa Jesus, titled 'Aki Love,' which drew mixed reactions from Kenyans. Despite initial feedback from Netizens, little did they realize that this marked just the beginning.
As Christmas approached, the couple, joined by other renowned couples namely, Wapendwa Muziki, Kaymo & Raych, The Wadosi Family, The Peekeys, and Purity & Dominic released another song, 'Hanini' (Slowly), humorously dramatizing the birth of Jesus and depicting an authentic Kenyan Christmas celebration. Although the song initially drew comparisons to Kabi wa Jesus's 'Aki Love,' it soon transformed into a cover of the popular Kikuyu song 'Hanini.'
Following this release, the group officially adopted the name Dominion and announced their latest hit. Infused with a Genge Tone, the song has garnered a positive reception from Netizens. Titled 'Dominate,' the song manifests the aspirations of individuals for the upcoming year. Some group members have been acknowledged for their vocal prowess for the first time.
Dominion, as a group, possesses various skills, ranging from audio production and vocal training to video production, directing, and influencing. They present themselves as a versatile package, showcasing a comprehensive array of talents contributing to their journey.
