Kenyan artist Bensoul has unveiled his latest album 'Flight 420,' a 13-track collection that showcases his growth as an artist by blending reggae-inspired sounds with Afrosoul and Afropop influences. The album was released on October 27 following a listening party in Nairobi. Reflecting on his experiences, relationships, and emotions, Bensoul explores what it means to grow, find joy in the present, and pursue meaningful experiences.
He emphasizes that this album isn't about creating trending hits but rather capturing everyday feelings, knowing he's not alone in his journey. Reggae provides a central influence, but Bensoul's curiosity about music across genres and cultures drives his unique approach to blending styles. With themes of life, joy, and passion, the album delves into the complexities of human emotions, presenting growth as a non-linear process and finding happiness in the present moment.
