Veteran rapper Colonel Mustafa has addressed whether his former Deux Vultures partner Nasty Thomas will join him on stage at his upcoming milestone celebration in Nairobi.
Colonel Mustafa is preparing to mark a major milestone in his music career with a special event scheduled for October 10, 2026, at Imperial Chambers Garden Hotel in Nairobi.
The event, listed as “Celebrating Milestone of Colonel Mustafa”, is scheduled to begin at 7pm, with tickets listed between KSh1,000 and KSh2,500. The event is also listed on Kenyan ticketing platforms, confirming the date and venue. 
But for fans who have followed Mustafa's career from the early 2000s, one question stands out: will Nasty Thomas be there?

Mustafa responds on Nasty Thomas

In an exclusive interview with Mpasho, Mustafa was asked whether his former music partner would make an appearance at the show.

The question is significant because Mustafa and Nasty Thomas were the members of Deux Vultures, the duo behind some of the era's memorable Kenyan hits.

The pair were associated with songs including Monalisa, Katika, Kinyaunyau and Adhiambo C. Their music helped establish them as one of the notable groups of Kenya's early 2000s music scene. 

Their history has also continued to attract interest from fans, particularly whenever the two are mentioned together.

"My brother wanted to come but the demands are too high and currently he is in Norway..I will book him a 5-star hotel but for the Grace Of God Nasty Thomas will show up," Mustafa commented.

A nostalgic reunion?

For many fans, Nasty Thomas appearing alongside Mustafa would carry more meaning than simply another guest performance.

It would bring together two artistes whose careers became closely linked through Deux Vultures.

A recent TV 47 report also revisited the duo's impact, asking when the two would perform together again. 

Mustafa's upcoming celebration therefore presents a natural opportunity for that nostalgia to return to the stage.

The rapper has had a turbulent journey since his early success. In 2023, he attracted public attention after a video showed him working at a construction site. He later spoke publicly about difficult years in his life and his return to music. 

His story has since included efforts to rebuild his career, business ventures and renewed music activity.

"We will be there with the likes of Nazizi, Kenrazy, Kenzo Matata, Kendi, Clemoh, Maria, DJ Extreme and Willy M Tuva,"  Mustafa added.

The show marks another chapter

The October celebration comes as Mustafa continues to reconnect with his musical past while pushing forward with his solo career.

For fans who remember Deux Vultures, however, the possibility of seeing Mustafa and Nasty Thomas together again remains one of the biggest talking points surrounding the show.

Whether that reunion happens on October 10 remains the question fans will be watching closely.
