Legendary Kenyan dancehall sensation Redsan continues his impressive career run with his latest music release “Rio’’, off his fifth studio album ‘Baddest’ launched in Nairobi in September 2018. The Latino-fused jam is his first video release of 2019.

Speaking on the new release, he says, ‘’RIO embodies my quest to further connect audiences from across the world through timeless music that celebrates our beauty, style and most of all our distinct sounds now that the world is a global village and music is our universal language. Sesan did an incredible job capturing the vibes from the inner city’’
Redsan is among the pioneering Kenyan music acts whose music has dominated the industry for more than two decades commanding massive crowds and connecting with diverse audiences. The smash hit has further solidified Redsan as one of the most inconsequential dancehall and reggae/ragga artists of his generation with still so much to offer.
The 17-track Baddest album included collaborations with Jamaican acts Demarco and Naila (formerly of Brick & Lace), Kenyan songstress Yvonne Darcq, Tanzanian fast-rising artist Ervix and Ugandan heavyweight Jose Chameleone.
