From Trio Mio to Diana B: Musicians to watch in 2022

In 2021, we saw a number of new musicians come up and break through with some even dominating the trend list.

From Maandy to Krispar alias Ndovu Kuu. From Diana B to Trio Mío. From Nikita Kering to Iyanii. All these talents are on their way to mainstream success.

With a whole new year ahead of us, we look to the future that is packed with an array of stars in waiting.

Here, then, are musical artistes to watch in 2022 as sampled by K24 Digital;

Trio Mio

At this point, we can all agree that Trio Mio is one of the exceptionally talented youngins that generation Z has birthed.

With his debut song having hit over 10 million views, get ready to load up your playlists and experience more from the teenage sensation in 2022.

Ndovu Kuu

The producer-cum-singer Krispar alias Ndovu Kuu has been vibrant for the past year presenting a wide range of experiences to his fans.

Krispar’s quotable style both lyrically and melodically soon took hold, and in 2021, his debut song Ndovu ni Kuu became a hit record.

Backed by his own top tier production, expect more of Krispar showing off his poetic lyricism and soft vocals.

Nikita Kering

The talented beauty with an array of awards to her name had an amazing 2021 with her hit song ‘EX’ headlining in most of the past concerts.

Nikita has been making some of the most relatable and exciting art around, and with her unique and amazing voice, this 19-year-old talent is definitely going to be one to watch in 2022.

Maandy

The Gengetone singer is one of the most emerging talents to watch in 2022.

Maandy alias ‘Kabaya’ had a number of good songs in 2021 most of which were collabos that stretched music boundaries in different exciting directions.

Maandy is paving her own lane that is separate from the rest and this year we anticipate her solo projects to savour.

Diana B

The content creator-cum-rapper Diana B was the biggest surprise artiste in 2021.

With her highly hyped revealing, Bahati’s wife enjoyed a two-week-long of dominance on the trend list with her debut songs ‘One Day’ and ‘Hatutaachana‘ trending at #1 and #2 respectively.

We hope to experience more of this refreshing twist in 2022.

Iyanii

With his hit song being one of the greatest dance floor tracks to come out of 2021, Iyanii is one of Kenya’s most interesting musical talents.

The ‘Kila mtu ako na pombe’ hit singer sang exactly what Kenyans wanted to hear at 2:00 am when clubs eventually reopened.

Iyanii is right on track!
