You’ll agree with me —Joefes is one of the few Gengetone artists who has never taken a backseat from the Kenyan or East African music scene. From his days as a founding member of the popular Mbuzi Gang to establishing himself as a formidable solo act, Joefes has consistently proven provocative energy in the music scene.
Known for his distinct voice, catchy punchlines, and infectious energy, Joefes continues to evolve with every project. In an industry where artists often fade as quickly as they rise, Joefes has mastered the art of reinvention. His latest release, Jana, featuring Exray and his longtime friend and fellow hitmaker Unspoken Salaton, is proof that he’s not slowing down any time soon.
Jana is more than just a feel-good track. It’s a carefree celebration of the party spirit, wrapped in rhythmic beats and clever wordplay. The message is simple yet powerful: there’s no shame in living in the moment. If you partied hard yesterday, do it again today and, don’t apologize for it. It’s a vibe for the bold, for the free-spirited, and for everyone who believes life is meant to be enjoyed to the fullest.
The chemistry between Joefes, Exray, and Unspoken Salaton is undeniable. Their verses flow effortlessly, creating a track that’s both nostalgic and hype. Just what Gengetone fans crave. And with a beat that commands movement, Jana is poised to become a staple in every party playlist across the region.
Joefes isn’t just riding the Gengetone wave, he’s steering it. With Jana, he reminds us that consistency, collaboration, and a deep connection to your audience are key to longevity. While others may come and go, Joefes is here to light up the scene — today, tomorrow, and the next day too.
