The music industry is one of the fast growing spaces where there is competition to remain relevant.
As the year comes to a close some people reflect on the songs that made headlines throughout the year and those that equally stand out.
In a recent release by Boomplay Kenya, they have listed Kenya’s top 10 most watched Music Videos. Have a look
- Iyena- Diamond Platinumz ft Rayvanny
A song by East Africa’s best Diamond Platnumz featuring WCB artist Rayvanny
Released 7 months ago and has over 12 Million Views on You Tube.
2.Short and Sweet-Sauti Sol
A song by Kenya’s legendary and overly talented; Sauti Sol. This song received all the praises from the lyrical aspect to the video and the major highlight was the featuring of one of Kenya’s finest dancers.
3. Malingo-Willy Paul
Kenyan Gospel artist Willy Paul has had many controversial cases but still on the top lists of artists who have made the headlines throughout the year.
His songs are on the charts for the reception by his fans.
Willy Paul appears on this list twice and even though some hate on his songs he still manages to thrive in the industry.
4.Baby Love- Otile Brown
Singer Otile Brown known for his unique music and this particular song was a major point of conversation having that his Ex Lover Vera Sidika Featured in it.
The two are said to have marketed this song by faking a break up and later releasing this lovey music video. Something that got tongues wagging
5. Njiwa-Willy Paul ft Nandy
Njiwa is a collabo by Willy Paul and Tanzanian beauty Nandy. This is one of Willy Paul’s song that stands to be my favourite.
Although a gospel artist, his non limited creativity and execution of this song deserve the honour.
Nandy on her side was absolutely glad to be part of this project.
6. Jibebe- Diamond Platnumz & Mbosso & Lavalava
Currently at 10million views on you tube; a song by the WCB king that is purely entertaining
7. Atarudi- Harmonize
A song by Harmonize liked for his natural and powerful voice and equally the talent and potential he has as an artist.
8.Ten Over Ten-Bahati
Gospel Artist Bahati dropped this song; dedicated to his wife Diana Marua
The major talking point was on the controversy of whether it is right for a gospel artist. Kenyans can be so judgmental and critics were blasted and told off for hypocritical commentary.
9.Love You Die- Patoranking ft Diamond
This was big for Diamond Platnumz since it was one of the major collabos with a popular international artist.
Released a year ago and has over 32 million views on You Tube
10. Rider- Khaligraph jones ft Petra
Much to say for the real OG but in simple words, hands down for the best hip hop artists who has kept his game real over time.
Respect the OG..
