Kenya’s Afro-house artist Idd Aziz releases first solo single Fatuma

Kenyan Afro-house artist Idd Aziz has released his first solo single ‘Fatuma’.
After years of collaborating with leading Afro-house artists to produce hit songs like ‘Kamili’ with Francis Mercier and Nitefreak, ‘Lua’ (with Djamou Sangare), ‘Kibe’ (with AfroTura, Rancido, and Bun Xapa), and ‘Jogolo’ (with Wail Bouri), among others, this time Idd Aziz is ready to showcase his talent in the dance genre, presenting his unique voice and style.

‘Fatuma’ is a soul-stirring single honouring the resilience and unwavering spirit of our forefathers. This melody was their lifeline, a single shared bond to the loved ones as they were so cruelly and violently taken away from their lands and shipped off towards an uncertain future as slaves.

As the slaves sang this song on the boats, their voices carried both a burden of desolation and hopefulness that allowed them to remain strong in the light of unspeakable odds. When the slaves poured out their bleeding hearts, ‘Fatuma’ turned their pains and anguish into the cry of brokenness that transformed into a powerful call for unity.

Through whispers and echoes of ‘Fatuma’, they drew courage from our elders, knowing their memories were never far from their hearts. It was an anthem of their resilience, an assertion that despite the adversity faced, those bonds would endure.

And ‘Fatuma’ is more than a song, it shows the human will to overcome even in its darkest hour. Sit back and listen to Idd Aziz’s powerful delivery: feel the raw emotion of our predecessors – their courage, determination.
