2014 Is The Year Bahati Will Outshine Everyone

Last year, the year two thousand and thirteen anno domino, Willy Paul was the hottest act around town. Willy Paul transcended the barriers of gospel and was in fact, a cross-over artist whose appeal had even the staunchest atheists I know singing along to his songs. but this is no long the year 2013 (year of our Lord).

And this year, 2014 anno domino, the artist who seems to have taken the country by storm is Bahati. And I can honestly say I have no idea where this Bahati fever has come from but he has wowed everyone. Today, I was able to watch him perform to young children and indeed, they were feeling all his songs. They could sing along to every single song.

Over the weekend, I saw him perform in Machakos to a capacity crowd of more than 15,000 people and they sang to each track he performed and did so word for word. I went as far as to tell him that he is currently the hottest star in Kenya. And that is fact backed by empirical data!

Who else have you seen who has adults, teachers and children, teenagers and twenty *something* year olds?
