Packed with infectious beats and untamed energy, Musa Keys has shaken up the South African music industry with chart-topping tracks like ‘Vula Mlomo’ and ‘Samarian Boy.’

The 32-year old also shared his enthusiasm for the festival, stating, "I am honored to be performing at RAHA Fest 2024 in Nairobi. I've heard so much about the energy of Kenyan audiences, and I can't wait to experience Raha the Nairobi way. It's going to be an unforgettable show!"
