Kenyan comedian Crazy Kennar, born Kennedy Odhiambo, once again demonstrated his knack for creating timely, relatable content with a viral skit centered on Rihanna and Asap Rocky’s third pregnancy announcement.
Skit Breakdown: ASAP Rocky as the Comedic Focus
At the heart of the skit is a parody of Asap Rocky, portrayed as hilariously eager to expand his family. Kennar cleverly plays on Asap’s stage name—“ASAP” (As Soon As Possible)—to suggest that the rapper is rushing into fatherhood with gusto.
Viewers found humour in lines like “ASAP to Rihanna: Panda kitanda,” a Swahili phrase meaning “get on the bed,” used here as a comedic innuendo for conception.
One viewer commented, “Nowonder he’s called ASAP,” while another joked, “ASAP Royco asione hii,” playfully mixing his name with Royco, a popular Kenyan spice brand—perhaps suggesting that the skit was just too hot to handle.
The speed of the skit’s production was itself a talking point among fans. One commenter joked, “Kennar, what time did you make this video, Met Gala imekuwa tu jana,” marveling at his rapid response.
A standout feature of the skit is Kennar’s ability to root international celebrity news in local Kenyan culture. He draws a humorous comparison between Asap Rocky and Akuku Danger, a well-known Kenyan polygamist famed for fathering over 100 children.
The line “Difference ya ASAP Rocky na Akuku Danger ni location,” cracked up many viewers, with some even quipping that Asap might secretly be “Mluhya,” referencing a Kenyan community stereotyped for having large families.
This fusion of global icons with local jokes and languages—including Sheng and Swahili—has made Kennar a favorite across diverse Kenyan audiences.
Comments like “Rihanna anashughulikiwa na Asap Rocky kweli kweli,” captured the comedic exaggeration.
Audience Reaction: Overwhelmingly Positive
The skit’s reception was overwhelmingly positive, with fans praising both its humor and lightning-fast turnaround. One fan wrote, “Accuracy 10/10,” while another gushed, “The only consistent comedian>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.”
A few detractors surfaced, with one remarking, “Content yako iko down siku hizi ngl,” but these comments were drowned out by the flood of laughter emojis and supportive feedback.
