J Blessing is a renowned Kenyan TV producer, Music Video Director, Cinematographer, and Founder of Link Video Global which has done over 1000 music videos.
However, just like most people who are balling right now, it was a case of from grass to grace. J Blessing did not grow up this fortunate. Sounds cliche right? Well it’s true.
Maybe he even had it worse, having become an orphan at a very tender age and living as a street urchin in a slum in Nairobi for a whole 9 years. Fortunately for him the Gods were smiling down on him and he was adopted by a well wisher and let’s just say that from then on, things weren’t the same again for him.
He started off as a dancer but after he was born again he decided to venture into the production industry. His ingenuity for production began at a tender age after developing interest in how videos are made.
J Blessing claims that he cannot accept less than Kes 200,000(about Ugx 6.5 million) for each video. “At the moment I cannot take home less than KSh200, 000 for doing a video. We have gone to school and studied too. I know most Kenyan directors went for their studies in South Africa, I went to the States. We are up to the task. We are mentoring people and we will extend this to the next generation.”
