Elani Finally get That Breakout Single! Check Out Their Exciting New Music Video!

For a long time, elani has been a name only familiar with the artsy underground. And while most people will have you believe that they have no problem with being on the underground scene, that is never an end in itself. I have always asserted that people who want to make music for the sake of it should stick to singing in the shower.

And Elani are one such group. i have watched the 3 of them with such painful exasperation because they are truly talented yet they have persistently stuck to the underground. I was at a concert they held at Alliance Francaise a while back -I think 2 or 3 years back and I was dumbfounded.

Why would a group as talented as them want to remain in the underground? Is it lack of ambition or do they love being obscure?
But they have finally gotten to a level of magnitude as to warrant a Ghafla article and I had to be the one to do it.

The video is far from their first but it is the breakout single! This is the first video alot of people will sit up and take notice to. The video in question is called “Jana Usiku” and the video has so many cameos from Kenyan celebrities that you know my statement that they have been around for a while is fact.

the track is a feel good party song and the best part about it’s production and sound engineering is that it allows you to hear the vocal range each member boasts without drowning out the instrumentals. Good stuff!
