Mood is turning heads on the streets of Nairobi with its fierce art and can't-miss atmosphere.
The back of the matatu resembles a comic book cover more than a bus. It has bright purple paint, cartoon-style portraits, road sign parodies, and emoji patterns.

The artwork features two animated female faces. One has a lot of chaotic energy, sticks out her tongue, and has a nose ring in full view.
The other looks doubtful and is looking to the side, with modified traffic signals showing running figures, warning emojis, and graffiti flair on either side.
And, of course, the final touch: the license plate reads 'MOOD.'
