At 26, emcee and voice-over artist Azeezah Hashim has already worked at two leading TV stations and a radio station. Despite initially being hesitant about her husky voice, Ms Hashim has become one of the youngest and most sought-after emcees today.
Her husky voice, blended with her natural charisma, engaging approach, and vibrant aura, has afforded her the opportunity to host some of the biggest events in Kenya and the region.
She now dreams of hosting the BET Awards. Initially, she dreamed of studying medicine or engineering or becoming a pilot. She had even enrolled in a university in Dubai, but her family faced financial difficulties.

When do you rest?
You still haven’t answered me, Ms Hashim…
These overflowing gigs seem to find you easily, don't they?
Hold on, are you saying that you've cut ties with Kaka Empire Management?
Was there…?
You were already doing okay, had enough gigs before you sought a management stable…
Does it mean your rate card has just gone up now?

How then did you split revenue?
Have you ever been shafted by a manager?
You got your dream car already, right?
Enough of that, are you still open to being a second wife?
Any suitors already? I would love to attend your wedding…
