Kabeaushé 

KenyaFrance

“The album leans into Kabeaushé’s technicolour idiosyncrasies in a way that never feels forced – think early Outkast beats at their most surreal.”
Jake Crossland, Loud and Quiet, 2023

Effortlessly fusing psych-soul, gospel, trap, and freak funk, Kenyan artist Kabeaushé delivers a masterclass in how to be unmissable. Their music begins and ends with softness, but always leaves room for what’s rough around the edges. Emerging through Uganda’s Nyege Nyege Tapes, Kabeaushé’s debut album The Coming of Gaze (2023), channeled giddy pop rush, old-school party hip-hop, and pure joy. With HOLD ON TO DEER LIFE, THERE’S A BLACK BOY BEHIND YOU! (2024), released via Monkeytown Records, Kabeaushé leans into something rawer and more unpredictable. The album is rave-soaked, vibrant, and alive with ideas and risks.
