Kenya: Pine Creek Records Signs 13-Year-Old Amani Gracious to the Family

Pine Creek Records announced the official signing of Amani Gracious, the melodious 13-year-old from Githurai that took Kenya and the world by storm with her viral video of her cover of 'Girl on fire' by Alicia Keys, on Friday.

The young songstress will go by the stage name 'Amani G' and is set to shoot a video for her first single 'Sitasahau.' The 13-year-old songstress will benefit from the two-year-deal with a minimum pay of Ksh. 2.5 Million with no limit on the upside. With her being a minor she cannot sign a work contract and will therefore benefit from a trust that is set up by her mother, Christine Ambuso, and Peter Nduati. Pine Creek Records has also taken care of her general upkeep that includes school fees, healthcare, housing, food, clothing and security.
