December 17, 2021 4

Spotify released the list of the most streamed songs on the app in 2021. Of the list is Afro-pop band Sauti Sol, Sol Generation’s Nviiri the Storyteller, Otile Brown, Nyashinski, Bensoul, and Nikita Kering’ with ‘Ex’.

That’s not all the Gengetone also took their share of the pie. After the genre popped up at the end of 2019 and 2020the genre was popular with the young audiences but didn’t find any favor with the older mature audience due to their raw way of putting things especially the raunchy themes in their songs. That didn’t deter them from getting some good numbers on the Spotify streaming app.

The best Gengetone song is ‘Shamra Shamra’ by Mbuzi Gang featuring Mejja, while coming in second place is ‘Cheza Kama Wewe’ by Trio Mio, Mejja, Exray, and Nelly The Goon.
