Just as Gengetone once swept the nation in 2018, a fresh sound emerges from the depths of innovation, ushering in a musical era dubbed 'Arbantone'. Arbantone, a novel sound on the Kenyan music scene, is an amalgamation of creative ingenuity, birthed from the minds of producers and Gen Z artistes seeking to redefine the boundaries of musical expression. Drawing inspiration from various genres, Arbantone remixes familiar beats and lyrics, breathing new life into previously released songs. What has left fans perplexed is the disconnect between the immense traction Arbantone artistes garner on social media platforms and their conspicuous absence from live performances and major events. Whatever the reason, the absence of these rising stars is being keenly felt.
