E-Sir and Nazizi.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane to a time when Kenyan Hip-hop was on another level. When you talk about Kenyan hip-hop, the first artists to come to mind are the likes of E-sir, Abbas, Necessary Noize, Jua Cali, and Ukoo Flani. Additionally, there are some new school artists who can’t go unrecognized, like Octopizzo, Muthoni Drummerqueen, Khaligraph Jones, Camp Mulla, and others. Their music has had such a massive impact that, no matter which era you came from, you’ll still like it. These are some of the legendary Kenyan hip-hop songs we’ll never forget.

1. Kenyan Girl, Kenyan Boy by Necessary Noize

This song had everyone jamming regardless of where you are. If you heard this song, you dropped everything you were doing and started dancing. For the dance style, that’s a story for another day. The legendary duo of Nazizi and Wyre gave us a magical era of Kenyan hip-hop, and for that, we owe them the top spot on this list.
