Written by on August 12, 2024

Award-winning Kenyan singer and performer, Chimano, is back with a brand new single “Do You Remember” – his much-anticipated debut release of 2024.

The feel-good Afropop song produced by DTX carries a powerful message – affirming listeners to trust their journey and not pay attention to the pressures of the world. 

Ahead of the release, Chimano shared, “Chimano as an individual is a new artist. Being part of Sauti Sol was the greatest privilege of my life, now I’m off on this amazing journey that I’m looking forward to,” confirming that “Do You Remember” is the first single and a lead up to a number of releases he plans to share with his fans this year. 

From experimental sounds to truthfulness in writing, Chimano’s new singles will showcase a fun yet intricate character on an incredible journey of self-discovery. 

Chimano adds, “I am starting a new journey and this song marks a transition from my previous music towards my new sound and expression. I also plan to release a complete body of work that fully expresses my love for the gift God has given me.”

Dabbling between dance and a sprinkle of Afrobeats “Do You Remember” is an addictive song that will light you up. Chimano says, “This song conveys a sense of feeling grounded, affirmations, and love for both the craft and the person.

It reflects what I’ve been feeling after a very successful career as I prepare for the amazing journey ahead.

I’m excited to enjoy this experience alongside my fanbase, the Chimandems. I want every Chimano fan to feel warmth, happiness, and goosebumps when listening to our music and to feel proud while also seeing themselves reflected in it.”

“Do You Remember” is a powerful return for Chimano. He expounds, “I felt it was necessary to take a break to help me focus, especially since there was a turning point in our lives following the Sauti Sol hiatus.

The music group was all I knew career-wise, and we were always on the go, accomplishing so much. Acknowledging this has always filled me with immense gratitude. Now, I want to prepare myself for my new chapter as a solo artist.”

The new single is not just a product of a period of self reflection; but of importance for Chimano to remind himself, fans (chimandems) and all listeners to hold their heads high and keep strong through all pursuits and pressure points.

It’s the beginning of a new chapter in Chimano’s career following the successful release of his debut solo EP ‘Heavy Is The Crown’ (2022).

Chimano sums up, “To all my fans, I love you, I hear you and I’m incredibly grateful for your support. Our journey is finally starting, and together, we’re going to create something amazing that we always knew we were capable of. Let’s go get it!”
