Aslay
With a down-to-earth take on the eclectic Tanzanian Bongo Flava style, Aslay broke through as a 16-year-old with 2011's "Nakusemea," his solo debut. After a few years as a member of the boy band Yamoto Band, he went solo again, returning to the charts with 2017's "Nibebe." Though preferring to issue singles, he delivered the album Kipenda Roho in 2019.
Aslay Isihaka Nassoro, commonly known as Aslay, was a teen when he emerged in 2011 with his debut single, 'Nakusemea." It was a hit in his native Tanzania and throughout East Africa, and he toured accordingly while following up with songs including "Niwe Nawe" featuring Temba. In 2013, Aslay joined Beka Flavor, Enock Bella, and Mbosso in Yamoto Band (originally Mkubwa na Wanawe Outfit) as both singer and songwriter. During their relatively brief, very successful run, the EP Hits of Aslay appeared in 2015. The group disbanded in 2017 as members, including Aslay, opted for solo projects.
He soon had a hit with 2017's "Nibebe," and, preferring to perform only solo material at his concerts, made a push to release original songs at a fast clip. He eventually released the album Kipenda Roho in 2019.
