Sauti Sol: 'Music is a language that speaks for itself'

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

Sauti Sol, the Kenyan band that made US President Barack Obama dance during his visit to Nairobi last year, is considered one of the continent’s top musical acts. When they visited our studios ahead of a concert in London, Focus on Africa’s Akwasi Sarpong started by asking them about their latest album, Live and Die in Afrika.
