Zubi formed in Nairobi in 2017 as a four-piece band with Anatu on vocals, Munga on guitar, Rasta on bass, and Amos on drums. They worked in a crowded local scene, blending Afropop, R&B, and hip-hop into something that felt like their own.
Their 2020 single 'Sugar (feat. Anatu)' broke through regionally, with Anatu's vocals carrying a melody that stuck. They followed it with tracks like 'Wish You Could Miss Me (feat. Anatu)' and kept releasing singles and EPs that touched on love and social themes.
They've collaborated with artists like Sauti Sol and Khaligraph Jones, and their song 'Same Love' stirred conversation in Kenya. The band has kept working, planning a debut album and looking toward international collaborations.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
