Nyashinski’s ‘Yariasu’ ushers in bold new era with SONY Music deal

The past few weeks have marked a new chapter in the career of Kenyan singer-songwriter rapper/producer, Nyashinski, with the release of his second solo album Yariasu, and a partnership deal with global music industry giant, SONY Music Africa.

“It is a relief obviously, when you finalise a project, any project, and put it out to the world,” Nyashinski (Nyamari Ongegu), told the BDLife in an exclusive interview a few days after an exclusive black-tie album listening party hosted with his brand partner Johnny Walker Black Label. “It is exciting when you release it (the album) for the world to hear it. It is exciting to present it and show what East Africa has to offer.”
