Bien-Aime (French for beloved) Baraza is a vocalist, songwriter and guitarist. His style of singing is soulful and his songwriting skills celebrated by many.
Since Sauti Sol’s inception in 2006, Bien-Aime has remained active in the group and part of the creation of Sauti Sol two albums: Mwanzo (2008) and Sol Filosofia (2011). Bien-Aime occasionally writes songs for other artists like Elani, Amos & Josh and Wendy Kimani.
He says of songs from Sauti Sol’s first two albums: Mwanzo and Sol Filosofia, “I love to write songs. And women inspire me. My thought process equates songs to women; to an extent I call our songs my women. Lazizi is the hot girl at the bar. Zosi is the good sweet girl who goes to church. Mama Papa and Soma Kijana are the voices of my mother.
“While on stage, these hit singles are among my trophies. Some women like Wera, Subira, Mapacha, Awinja and Asubuhi are wife material-girls who knew me in the hood before the lights, camera and action. They remind me of Sauti Sol days before success and the magical struggle that our music has been. They are show for sacrifice and represent the road we’ve treaded.”
Bien-Aime studied Journalism and Media Studies at the United States International University and graduated in 2011. - บันเทิง

It will come to you when it comes to you, but you need to be working when it comes. It shouldn't find you flat footed ~ Bien-Aime
Someone should do a collection of all the quotables from this CTA. It's been nourishing.
Gems 💯💯💯
CTA with Bien has been one of the best interviews I have heard in the Kenyan space. Bien keep going and inspire.
I got teary eyed when I heard Bien say 'It will come to you when it comes but it has to find you working' Thanks Bien. Thanks Richie❤❤
you speak about each song and in my mind am like I have to re-listen to this after this show. Each one of Sautisol songs is special and unique.
Truth! I have been singing Sauti sol for the past 4 days and listened to Mwanzo on my deezer 🤣🤣

This is what being a real artist means. Investing in your craft .
When you visualize, it comes to existence, I can imagine that feeling when you met India Arie.
When I saw pics of them in the studio with Andre Harris I knew sasa wamefika global status. Andre Harris and Vidal Davis (Dre & Vidal) have been collaborating since the late 90’s at A Touch Of Jazz Studios owned by DJ Jazzy Jeff. Their prod catalogue is amazing from MJ to Usher, Jill Scott to Floetry, Chris Brown to Glen Lewis and Kenny Lattimore to Sauti Sol now.
I wish you talked more on them working with Kaysha who prod “Love Again” ft C4Pedro and “Everything” ft India Arie. Those are probably their biggest Kizomba/Zouk 🎵tracks to date and Kaysha is such an easy guy ready to work.
Bro your ideology in the Business is so crazy....wonder why people ain't seeing your coment
My whole childhood i knew sunday afternoon ni za kuskiza rhumba na kusoma gazetti
Have never bought no music album, but after listening to this guy lazima ninunue all Sauti sol albums
Especially the vinyl records those are quality..
@@timothymitoz6793 where are they available?
Harness an essence of being pleasant to whoever you meet no matter how tough things are going for you.
Eeeh madam haukosi uku noma sana
I can't believe how invested I feel in this whole musical journey of theirs! It's wonderful that all of this is being documented, brings alot of perspective for those who watched the process from near and far, the critics, the fans and those who hope to follow in their footsteps. Loving it! 😊
you should watch their reality show on showmax, I couldnt think i could love this band more but i did
Aki mtu anaweza skiza Bien all day
The fact that he mentioned they performed at ESSENCE FESTIVAL...levels
One thing is for sure, Sauti Sol has invested big time in their craft both in time and money... They are a true gift to Kenya, Africa and the world.
Midnight Train is probably the best album to ever come out of Kenya. Every song is so well done and meaningful. Hakuna songs za kujaza album.
Cant believe this is the week Im discovering CTA - started at Njugush now watching Bien and then wengine. This is insane 🥳🥳🥳 love what you are doing Richard.
Nitajua Bien ni mluhya akikula huyo jogoo anawika at the beginning and at the end
I loved the rhumba sound in midnight train every bit of it. It felt so Kenyan and so memorable.. Those types of songs our dads would play in the car or on radio when we were kids.
My God, I never realized Sauti Sol was this BIG. Thank you Richie, these guys have made me understand the music business/ industry much better.
Hii sasa ndo interview noma sio kama ile ya,,,,,ahahaha sanitize kijana
If you'll thought polycarp is a joyrider in sauti sol you'll wrong
Ndani
True every Luhya dad had that one Rhumba song.My dad's was Nadina by Mbilia Bel
Sober is too dear to me man. I love the fact that they have matured to create music for a purpose - The essence of creation.
This series is insightful...the in-depth of conversation leaves one full.
This is really a good process to listen to.It also makes me appreciate this artist and the other members of Sauti sol. It’s a generous of him to have been this honest and forward.
'🎶My everything 🎶 is my favorite song in the album.
I am here during the premiere! Mama I have made it
Harness the essence of being pleasant. Definitely India Arie vibes.
Sober is my favorite song on midnight train too.

Bien Baraza gems: The real estate of a worker is building investments that will cushion you when you're 50-60s. That's your pension!
- Keep dreaming and wanting something! It will come to you when it comes to you BUt it shouldn't find you flat footed, you need to be working!!!

We oooonnnnn CTA 🔥🔥
Thank you for sharing this interview CTA. I'm going to listen to entire songs when you slot them in - like I'm in a live Genius "break down the lyric concert" . So good🔥🔥🔥
Bien is so Wise
Wisdom!!!!
Following the story
Sober is the best song on Midnight Train. Disagree with me and I'll punch you 😅😂
Can someone explain to me what value a record Label adds to a group like Sauti Sol who write and produce their own music ?
Mostly proper marketing/promotion cause of connections in the industry, distribution. They also expose artists to the other better/ best producers, and other big artists.They also give them an advance “Loan” that is to be recouped once an album starts generating revenue. A bad record deal might also mean they own your music😬
@@croogrbeats2982 Thanks for that
$10,000 🤯🙌🏽
It's Possible.
First things first:Am your biggest fan....I love your catalog of work gotta admit though that Midnight train will stay with me forever...it's deeeeeep!!!!!
Bien Aime am waiting for two albums now,am actually anxiously waiting- Your Album with Nyashisnki coz that will be a classic and the album with Khaligraph Jones coz of the realness in both of you.
May God bless y'all
Working with willy paul not here aki vile nimengoja
Richie btw you have not asked Bien about working with Wendy Kimani on Hayawi Hayawi bana🤔
Sautisol have over 100 songs to their name... there A LOT we didn't cover. #SongsKibao
@@cta101 I mean it was not a SautiSol collabo but only Bien and I would have loved a story about Wendy Kimani the Legend she is.
Mtu wa gown hajaamka😂😂😂
😂😂😂amefika
@@anthonywahome20 karibu mheshimiwa😂😂
@@Wangata 😂😂😂😂
@@JustMeDr Umeskia Marto kuchocha?😂😂😂
@@anthonywahome20 kabisa😂😂😂😂
Sober hits Me Harder😓😓..
Savaras part 😢😢
Then Chimanos Part😓.
I pray that Karma that Karma should be Easy on Me🙏🙏
Dude you sound like you write all Sautisol songs🤔🤔 so what do the other guys do?
Savara and Polycarp are producers, Chimano is the guy behind their fashion (concerts, music videos, appearances). It's a full team bana.
I think Bien mostly writes the hooks and the other guys just add their verses
He's a good writer & singer but can he play a guitar like Polycarp? Does he have bass ya Chimano alafu Savara has a unique voice and does production. Waeza ona like the other guys do nothing lakini they play a big role, kama kuna kitu I have learnt from this channel is that music is not just about the voice
@@sullin5947 they all have their input in the group, but true it seems like Bien (from this interview) does everything. Like “I” wrote this song, “I” this and that yet it’s a group. But maybe it’s because this is his CTA and not Sauti sol’s.
@@JustMeDr exactly he is using alot of "I" "I wrote that" I, I, I, I, too much.😂 And this can spark a little jealous on the group.
