Sauti Sol singer Bien-Aime Baraza has flown to London to record his debut album, a solo project coming after his 2021 EP 'Bald Men Love Better'.
Accompanied by his wife Chiki Kuruka, Bien has balanced studio time with exploring the European city, including attending a concert headlined by American RnB artist Chris Brown.
The concert was hosted at the iconic O2 Arena and was sold out.
"That was the best show I have watched in my life," the 'Inauma' singer posted after watching the American performer live.
