Kenyan reggae and dancehall collective The Remake Movement was scheduled to hold an album launch concert in Nairobi on Saturday, November 7, following the release of its debut project, ‘Tuff Lion’.
The eight-track album was released on October 2 and explores themes including resilience, spirituality, justice, freedom and self-awareness.
The group, founded in 2019 by Nubian Flame, Wangari Kare and Maestro Macky, blends reggae and dancehall with traditional African musical influences.
The collective has previously performed alongside established international reggae and dancehall musicians, including Jah9, Capleton, Freddie McGregor and Turbulence.
The Nairobi concert was planned as a celebration of the new project, following its release and promotional activities.
The album launch also reflects the continued efforts of Kenyan reggae musicians to build audiences and create space for locally produced reggae and dancehall music.
The group had not provided a confirmed post-event attendance figure in the information available at the time of writing.
