We are just drooling if not crazy in love with Bensoul AKA bensuuuda work of art. His music slowly draws you in and tells the tales of all the nostalgia we have been carry around.
Slowly he draws us in with the well arranged lyrics and fancy strings that perfectly fuse into the definitive benga vibe that sums up his style.
When you get a glimpse of Bensoul performing live you know at that instant you don't want him to stop and as we look forward to Sol Generation Sol fest set for the 12th of December 2021 we are anxious to watch Bensoul live in action once again.
His infusion of African music sets him apart from other artists. Our top five Bensoul’ s jams that really got to us would be;
