Nameless Sings Salari

There is an artiste whose constant presence on the Kenyan and African music scene is much appreciated. Music is not just for entertainment, and artistes are social commentators. Salari is a song that names the trials of the workers whose daily hustle is the struggle for a salary. It is by Kenyan ariste, Nameless, whose track Sinzia has captured the hearts of African music enthusiasts globally. The song awakens our social consciousness with a tune for those who keep the economy working, who search for the salary ‘salari’‘

How great is the song and the video. I especially love the ambience he creates in both this video and Sinzia, it feels like it was genuinely shot by and for Africa.
Plus the track keeps it real!
I gave it a listen, thought so too. Yeh!
