Brian Muchina Malomba is a prominent Kenyan radio personality, voice-over artist, and digital content creator, best known for his work at Kiss 100 FM. He previously hosted a show, Maloko, with his co-host Cyd Wambui from 7 pm to 11 pm. Often referring to himself as a “village boy” to celebrate his humble roots, he has risen to become one of the most recognizable voices in Kenyan media.
Early Life and Education
He was born and raised in Bunga, Bungoma County. He is the firstborn in a family of two. He was born on June 15, 1994, making him 31 years old.
Malomba was very close to his mother, whom he described as his “queen” and “best friend.” She passed away on March 14, 2014, a loss he describes as his greatest fear coming true.
He grew up without his father. He has been candid about the trauma of this absence and has shared that he underwent therapy to process the childhood wounds associated with being raised in a single-parent household.
He was primarily raised by his maternal grandmother and the maternal side of his family in Bungoma. He credits his grandmother with making significant sacrifices to ensure he received an education.
He discovered his passion for media at a young age, often reading the news in front of his classmates. He later pursued professional training in radio production at the Kenya Institute of Mass Communication (KIMC), Nairobi.
Professional Career
Before finding success, Malomba spent six years “tarmacking” (job hunting) and even lived in Tanzania for six months while searching for opportunities.
He gained significant fame hosting the Maloko Show, a premium Kenyan music program, alongside co-host Cyd Wambui.
In mid-2025, following the exit of long-time hosts Kwambox and Kerry Martin, Malomba was tapped to take over the Kiss FM Breakfast Show. However, Malomba chose to leave his radio career to focus on travel content creation full-time. He expressed a desire to travel the world and document his experiences.
He described the move as a way to “give travel content creation a chance” and follow a passion that had grown alongside his radio career. In a heartfelt message, he stated that by leaving, he was letting go of a 20-year-old dream in radio that he had manifested since he was 11, to pursue a new path that feels more aligned with his current identity.
He had previously shared reflections on turning 30, noting that he wanted his 30s to be defined by fulfillment and living fearlessly, which influenced his decision to step away from his “dream job” at the peak of his radio career.
He is a seasoned English and Swahili voice artist with over eight years of experience, working with major brands such as Safaricom and Flutterwave.
Personal Life
Malomba is an avid traveler who has visited over six countries. He began traveling as a way to build his self-esteem after facing discouragement during his college years.
He maintains a strong presence on TikTok and Instagram, where he shares content about his life, travels, and radio career.
In February 2026, reports emerged indicating his exit from his long-term radio home at Radio Africa Group.
Girlfriend
He is currently single. While there has been frequent public speculation and “shipping” regarding a romantic relationship with his co-host Cyd Wambui, Malomba has consistently denied these claims, stating they are just colleagues and friends.
Net Worth
Muchina Malomba’s exact salary at Kiss 100 has not been publicly disclosed. He is known for being modest about his finances, even stating in 2024 that he had not yet acquired major assets like a house or car, choosing instead to focus on personal growth and his career.
