They were also listed as Billboard Africa’s Most Promising Music Group, The Standard Newspaper’s 2016 Agenda Setters and DRUM Magazine East Africa’s 2015 Movers and Shakers.
Now, the multiple award-winning group, Sauti Sol, has released a national song on good breakfast in partnership with Unilever Kenya. HIGHER-HAIYA! is a bonafide dance song with a powerful message to inspire all. The song performed by Sauti Sol was written by Sauti Sol and Tim Rimbui and recorded/produced by Tim “timwork” Rimbui of Ennovatormusic.
“The song is amazing and just another reminder that a good beginning is the first determinant of the end. It is important that a good breakfast is prepared for champions; after all we are what we eat for breakfast and a good day starts in the morning.” said Sauti Sol in a statement.
