Apart from producing notable musicians like Octo and others, the hood also boasts of producing Kenya's leading socialite Brigid Achieng. 

Achieng says that her life was not always easy from the beginning. 

In a video, the curvaceous socialite posted a poor house where she once resided while working as a househelp in Kibera. 

‘’My former house ..Before the fame and Everything..God indeed humbled me...i really I'm the woman after Gods heart..#fromgrasstograce  #anybodycanmakeit #myhousehelpdays #itcostedme1200ksh  #getinspired #stillchasing #nogivingup #humbledalways #anyonecanmakeit #dontloosehope," she said. 

She showed where she used to walk back home after a long day's work. 

"Hey guys let me show you something… This used to be my house like 6 years back. This used to be my crib. This is where I used to stay as a house girl. People think like, life was a bed of roses. This is where I used to stay back in the day. This house was costing me Ksh1200 back in the day. Don’t know how much it costs today yah and I’m proud of the homeowner I’ve become today," she adds.

Today, Achieng is a socialite who doubles also as a plus size model, entrepreneur and an actress.
