Kenyan contestant stuns judges with an incredible H_art the Band  ‘Uliza Kiatu’ performance at the Voice of Germany 2020 competitions

It is undeniable that Kenya has some exceptional talents, if only they get the right platform to showcase what they got.

During the ongoing Voice of Germany Live auditions, a Kenyan living in the foreign land, Eugene Asira moved the crowd and judges after staging a groundbreaking performance of the hit song Uliza Kiatu.

The anthem was released by the popular group, H_art the Band back in September 2014 and to date, it remains a club banger.

Clearly proven by a dear Eugene during the ongoing blind auditions at the International competition in Germany that has since left him a music star.

The talented contestant awed the panel of judges who could not help but admit that he was good in the game, with a 4-chair turn that swept Eugene and his family that was on standby, off their feet.

A song sang by the 3 band members, with different vocal ranges but Eugene still aced the performance, taking up the parts of each artist to beautifully blend it into one.

From the pauses, to the umfs, to the emotions generated, to the ambiance in the packed theater, talk of the instruments, I mean, it is one of those places you wish you would be physically present, COVID-19 not withstanding.

Taking to the gram, the excited father of one, urged fans across the world to show their unflinching love and support as he takes over the stage.

Impressed at what he did during the blind auditions, H_art the band took to their timeline to congratulate the talent for making their brand global “????????????We are so Proud of you bro, wishing you all the best ????????????”.

A Kiswahili performance in the German motherland was sure the best it ever got. Literally, moving the panel of judges and the audience who probably could not understand what the words meant, but the emotions generated, the finesse from start to finish, I mean…

Have a listen and tell us what you think;

H_art The Band makes good music but no one cares

There very few people who make good music in Kenya and when I say good I mean the kind that you would be totally comfortable listening to or watching with your an elder person, say your parents.

H_art The Band, a group that is made up of Kenneth Muya, Wachira Gatama and Mordecai Kimeu, falls in this category. Their songs are not only enjoyable, they also reasonate with people across all ages – whether young or old.

However, for one reason or the other, I feel like they are really underrated and unappreciated. If you ask anyone which songs by H_art The Band they know, most people will just mention Uliza Kiatu which was released 5 years ago so.

The all-boy band has released so many songs after Uliza Kiatu – the song that thrust them into the limelight. Some of them are; Rosella, Love Phobic, Baby Love, Nikikutazama, Masheesha, Adabu, just to name a few.

Do you know any of the aforementioned songs? Well, you might also not know is that they recently released a new album dubbed Made In The Streets. Were you aware of this? I guess not.

I had a chance to listen to the 13-track album and I can tell you that it’s a masterpiece. I’m not even exaggerating. I will definitely review it one these fine days to get some of you to appreciate their craft.

In as much as the new-age artists, who sing about the most random things, have taken over, that does not mean we should forget about beautiful music from H_art The Band and the likes. Enough said!
