Kenyan singer Bien is set to headline a major concert at Nairobi’s Carnivore Grounds, in what promises to be one of the year’s most unforgettable live performances. The show marks Bien’s long-awaited return to the Kenyan stage after months of touring internationally with his critically acclaimed solo album Alusa Continua.
The Alusa Continua Journey
Released in 2023, Alusa Continua quickly won praise for its emotional honesty, genre-blending production, and unique fusion of afrobeats, amapiano, R&B, and Kenyan-inspired rhythms. The 16-track project produced standout hits such as “Inauma”, “My Baby” featuring Ayra Starr, and “Dimension”, which continue to dominate airwaves across Africa and beyond.
The accompanying world tour has taken Bien to Europe, North America, Asia, and several African countries, cementing his reputation as a captivating live performer who can command both intimate venues and massive arenas.
A Special Nairobi Homecoming
The Nairobi show carries special significance. It will be Bien’s first major solo concert in Kenya since Sauti Sol’s indefinite hiatus in 2023, which allowed him to fully pursue his individual career. For fans, the Carnivore concert is more than just another show—it’s a celebration of Bien’s global success and artistic evolution.
Organizers promise a full live band, cutting-edge stage production, and surprise guest appearances, making it a once-in-a-lifetime experience for fans.
Fans’ Excitement
Excitement has already spilled over onto social media, with fans eagerly counting down the days:
“We’ve waited too long for this. Bien’s live vocals are magical. This will be history in the making.”
“Alusa Continua healed souls when it dropped. Hearing it live will be therapy.”
“From Sauti Sol to solo greatness, Bien has never missed. Carnivore will be too small for this energy.”
Others joked about saving up to fully enjoy the concert, underscoring the emotional connection they feel with Bien’s music, which often touches on love, heartbreak, resilience, and personal growth.
A Milestone for Kenyan Music
Bien’s international recognition is not just a personal triumph—it’s a landmark moment for Kenyan music. His solo journey proves that authentic local sounds can thrive on the global stage. The Carnivore show also reflects a growing trend of African artists bringing their world tours back home, signaling both confidence in the regional market and the deep love of local fans.
As anticipation builds, Bien’s Carnivore concert is already being hailed as a career-defining moment and a historic event for Kenyan music lovers. For many, it’s more than a concert—it’s a homecoming celebration that will mark a new chapter in Bien’s remarkable journey.
