Kamau has served as a Senior Business Communication Specialist for a number of top communications companies in America. Kamau's music business beginnings grew from a family owned promotion company started in the early 90's called Unity International. Unity International had a primary focus of promoting Caribbean artist on concert circuits through out the mid western part of the United States. Award winning Reggae & Calypso stars such as Arrow, Yellow Man and Sparrow were apart of these extremely high energy shows! In 1998 U&I Entertainment Group was formed. Kamau, with help and advice from top music industry executives, and college friend/promoter/manager D.Chase, began to seek out independent artist that had a limited platform and needed exposer. The goal was to provide an avenue for artist that were unsigned to display their talent.

The business savyness that Kamau has gained from the communications industry has allowed for successful project management for young up and coming artist/producer Supa Cool. A few other projects that Kamau has been involved with are B.U.D.D. and female rapper Kilo. In dual efforts with D Chase, former manager of Grammy nominated artist Raheem DeVaughn, Kamau was one of the first to deliver DeVaughn's music to the streets of Central Florida.
