What Better way to celebrate the summer holidays than with yours truly-Rema from Nigeria? The afrobeatse sensation was in Kenya recently to promote his latest music and perform at the muchanticipated MNE Fest held at the Carnivore grounds.
He performed all his hit songs like ‘Soundgasm’,’Woman’, ‘Calm Down’ amongst many others plus he had a huge surprise for his Kenyan superfans by bringing onstage none other than Patoranking (the dancehall afrobeats king).This was an epic reunion like no other as he belted out tunes like ‘Abule’, ‘So Different’ and a few more hit songs to the amazement of his diehard superfans, it was a sight to behold.
Other artists who performed onstage were Necessary Noize (first performance in so many years with latest music), Wakadinali, Ochungulo family, only Rosa and a huge surprise performance by Karun alongside Rema.
The Mcs for the night were Sheila Kwamboka of Vybez radio, Sean of NRG Radio, as the mammoth crowd of revelers danced all night to deejay mixes from Gmoney amongst other great deejays.
The setup was incredible with various vendors selling their merchandise, ambience was perfect, and everyone was in high spirits to come celebrate the night the ‘Rema way.’ It was definitely a night to remember, and Rema had a wonderful time seeing Kenya in its most natural and beautiful form.
