Kenyan singer Bien Baraza is seemingly destined for even greater feats after exiting Sauti Sol.

The celebrated music group, also made up of Savara Mudigi, Polycarp Otieno, and Willis Chimano, broke up, with each member pursuing solo careers. However, Bien’s solo career has been the most outstanding, releasing hit after hit.

His latest song, Katam, which features Diamond Platnumz, has garnered over 3.5 million views despite not having a video. Before that, he had hits like Lifestyle featuring Scar Makadinali and Safari alongside Suldaan Seeraar.

Amid his musical success, Bien has been spotted with Diamond and Nigerian music mogul Davido.

One video showed Bien sitting next to Diamond while showing him something on his phone. The Wasafi Media owner seemed amused as he laughed.

The video panned to show Davido sitting opposite them, expressing pride in being African.

"Everybody showed up for you, brother," a person behind the camera told Davido.

The Nigerian singer said he had also shown up for fellow artistes.

The group then posed for photos while calling for African unity.

Fans were excited by the photos, with numerous Kenyans expressing pride in Bien for representing the country.

“Bien is helping Diamond with the translation because of his limited English knowledge. Tanzanians, don’t stone me.”

In other news, Bien appeared on The Breakfast Club and opened up about love, music, and money.

He revealed that his wife, Chiki, became his manager two years ago after nearly a decade together.

Bien said the decision strengthened their bond, calling it one of the most fulfilling moves in his life.

However, the headline grabber came when Bien was asked whether he pays her.

Bien noted that there’s no division of wealth in their home as everything is for the family. He emphasised that both he and Chiki have full access to each other's money as they build a future together.

His views on joint finances elicited reactions online, with many applauding the trust in their relationship, while others questioned the practicality of such openness. Still, Bien stood by their approach, noting that what works for them may not work for others.
