Kenyan music star Boutross Munene transformed a London street into a lively concert venue after delivering a high-energy performance alongside UK live stream sensation DJ AG. The impromptu collaboration quickly attracted a crowd and went viral online, sparking excitement among fans both in Kenya and abroad.
A Fusion of Nairobi and London Sounds
DJ AG, famous for his mobile DJ setup that turns public spaces into open-air music stages, created the perfect backdrop for Boutross to showcase his ‘Shrap’ sound—a distinct fusion of rap and trap with a Kenyan twist. Together, they blended Nairobi’s urban rhythms with London’s eclectic street energy, delivering a raw and authentic experience that resonated with the audience.
Boutross’s Dynamic Performance
Boutross, known for hits such as Angela and 6ixviewsii8k, brought charisma and style to the performance. He rocked two standout looks during the show: a bold red-and-black varsity jacket and a vibrant green racing jacket. His dynamic stage presence, paired with DJ AG’s smooth transitions, kept the crowd engaged and buzzing throughout.
Fans Celebrate Kenyan Music Going Global
The street performance quickly spread across social media platforms, with fans applauding Boutross for introducing Kenyan Shrap to global audiences in such an accessible and exciting way. Many described the event as a cultural bridge, connecting Nairobi’s music scene with international listeners.
“Kenya to the world! Boutross just turned London into Nairobi for a moment.”
“This is how culture travels—raw, real, and unfiltered.”
A Growing Movement of East African Artists
This isn’t DJ AG’s first collaboration with Kenyan talent. Earlier this year, Bien-Aimé Baraza of Sauti Sol performed his hit All My Enemies Are Suffering in London under the same format, further highlighting the global appeal of East African music.
By taking their performances directly to the streets, artists like Boutross and Bien are proving that Kenya’s sound is distinctive, dynamic, and universally engaging. Their innovative approach signals a growing movement of East African musicians connecting with fans worldwide through interactive and unforgettable live experiences.
