Mwai who is one of the most celebrated gospel musicians in the country is best known for his inspirational worship songs.

One of the things that make Mwai stand out from the crowd is his dedication to serve God without seeking any kind of fame. 

He is known to keep a low profile and avoids attracting unnecessary attention. 

His songs have remained popular as they are loved by both the young and old alike.

Mwai comes from a humble background and is the fourth born in a family of seven.

He married the love of his life Beth Maina on August 27, 2011, in a ceremony held at the Jockey club in Nairobi.

Mwai released his last album dubbed 'Only You Jesus’ in 2014. The songs in the album got popular within a short period attracting views and likes on YouTube.

The artist has gone silent since then, and it remains unclear whether he is still pursuing his professional music career or not.

However, Mwai who is a reverend at the Racing Up House Of Worship, still sings at different church functions, with the latest being in April where he was a guest artist at Kenya American Community Church (KACC).

Among his hit songs include: Racing up, Murangiri, Ndigatiga, Gicuri, Umatho, Holy one I love you, Lord, Touched to mention but a few.
