- Parents are invincible in their children's eyes. When a child lives through his parents' fall from grace, it changes his life. It either builds or breaks his spirit. Bien-Aime's family experience moulded him into the man he is. It shaped his relationship with money, work, people and githeri. What drives you? #EngageSautisol #Sautisol #EngageKe
Engage provides a platform for ordinary and extraordinary people to Inform. Inspire. Influence.
We are what we are because of our experiences... Brighter days are yet to come.
Raw, powerful, and honest. One of the best Engage talks.
One thing I like about the guy, he appears mature - most Kenyan musicians never mature upstairs!

Hawa ni wale walikuwa wanapata 39/40 kwa composition.
He is smart . He started with a strong thesis statement and supported it all through .
Now the small, private wedding Bien and Chiki had earlier this year makes so much sense. It's a guiding principle of theirs to be smart about money. So powerful.
😍😍😍
Haiya!! They wedded already!
Very true...also if you watch their interview with Jalango, Bien was so much against Savara doing extravagant wedding.
It all makes sense now
@@veronychela slowly and slowly I am understanding how my fellow men think and view the world
❤️❤️❤️
This is so so so powerful. Brighter days Bien. Ndio mwanzo wa kufika kileleni!!
Githeri was just chilling innocently and then BOOM!!! the smear campaign. Its a beautiful story of conquering this journey called life.
Lol. Can you imagine
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂🤦🏿♂️
😅😅😅😅😅 You are hilarious!
Githeri never saw this coming,with the new age acceptance of healthy eating it actually placed itself in a respectable position on the scale then Bien happened,hate, shame and a reminder of darker days when it was associated with poverty. Githeri actually needs therapy as we speak...
No wonder this guy is a songwriter. He‘s a talented storyteller. He could as well have been another sort of literary artist, a novelist. Respect.
He has a degree in print journalism as well
True
The drive, the talent, the eloquence, the humour, the ability to inspire, I certainly don't regret naming my son Bien.
I was watching this while very sleepy when I heard him say Kamura Nkoroi & I was like Whaaaaaaat 😲😲😲😲😲. Then I heard his story & it's like a photocopy of my life but him being the one copying me....cause we actually moved into an unfinished house in Dec 1994 up up on Kamura Rd in Nkoroi & I also enrolled in Upper in Feb 1995 by then it was a day school, So I used to commute daily & I would meet girraffes along the way at 5.30am cause I had to walk 1.7km to the road from home to the bus stop, near Kunoni primary so that I could beat the deadly langata road jam. Later in 2003 Nkoroi became very unsafe with my dad being shot by thugs but surviving so my folks had to abandon the house until 2018. Anyways..... always been a big fan of Sauti sol cause of the upperhill allumini thingi........but now I am a die hard fan of Bien
this hit again
Watu tumeishi nkoroi na tumesoma kunoni mehn🥴

Did you say at least good mornin to those graceful animals Sounds like a scene in out of africa!
@@mwendapoleee 😆😆I always did haha ......but I think they never understood
My mum,a single parent gave up on everything after several businesses attempts failed. She died of depression,at that point everything we had been auctioned and I was left with nothing and no parent. But,I thank God I learnt lessons from my mom case.Thank you for this talk ,so real and inspiring.
Painful sorry dear one.
Are you from Nakuru?
Sorry to ask but when you say died of depression,you mean suicide or ?
So sorry honey 😢
so no one is going to talk about that classy shoe
And as always, there will be that one fool that misses the point every-time.
Wow! Enyewe we shouldn't be looking at someone's success forgetting how much they struggled to get there. You shall never lack Alusa. God is and will continue to keep you and your fam
I have never related to a story this much. An exact replica of what happened to my family. The experience changes you and scars you for life but you also get to have such greater experiences that mould you later in life. I built a healthy relationship with finance, people, work and its up to you whether you let the experience break you or make you! Good Job and Love you #SautiSol
Thank you for sharing your story with us Bien
@@loremipsum6484 Am doing great, But I Appreciate and receive the good tidings always!!!
I have listened to chimano,savara and bien ame, you are great men.They are among the few celebrities,whom l rarely see showing off cars etc.
Woow the suffer story is so simmilar to mine. Only that i haven't met my breakthrough but i believe i will. One special day i will hit the studio nd my vocals will shock nd entertain the world. My twin nd I started our youtube channel @SHERRY AND RENNY TWINS. sahi ni kuhustle but soon im'ma tell my story too,. Bien's story is an inspiration.
Your breakthrough is on the way😍 God gives us a story to share in our glory
AMEN.
I love you guys ....since you've manifested your breakthrough watch how God will work
Keep going. Brighter days are yet to come
@@elijahotieno8757 Ameeen. thankyou so much
In life things have to fall apart for the pieces to fall into place. Very well said. Bien you are good mentor indeed.
This was too short ... Bien is such a good orator I’d listen to him all day ... this was powerful
I hate Githeri.
What an intro 😅
😂😂😂😋😂😂ilove it
Right? 😂 But such a powerful speech after.
Now I see why I always have this perception that u the one who hold the band together they say our experiences sometimes force us to mature way past our age your maturity honestly is portrayed without it being said...and this story is so captivating may God bless you
His eloquence and ability to speak and verbalise his thoughts is genius level
No wonder he is one of if not the greatest song writers
Bien you are an amazing talent in the 254🇰🇪
This was so real and felt sad and questioned myself to some point
Appreciating your family is vital
Real friends are a positive energy to one's life
Real friendships should be symbiotic not parasitic
Saving culture is important
Brighter days are yet to come
Alusa you opened a bank of memories that shaped us into who we are today.If my fire was ever burning out you just sparked that fire back up.❤️
Guys my sister is on the comment's 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 love you Bijou
Bijoux...he forgot to mention how the batteries had to be put out in the sun for more life haha!!....how he really used to irritate us all while showering and singing on top of his voice! Those were the days!!
@@graceawinja4199 MUM ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ look at us now.
@@BienOfficial yes oooo SON....who'd have thought!
Bienaime Alusa Baraza I love you beyond words!😘
Your blessings are a result of your dad's kindness. We may not see the blessings of what we do in our time, but in the subsequent generations. In my view health, wellness, and peace from God are the greatest form of wealth.
God bless!
Yes, you don't always receive from those you give.....you actually rarely receive from those you give to. Always anyway
Absolutely True 👌
We fall. We fail. We break. We rise up. We heal. We keep on fighting through. So powerful oration full of reflections.
Bien..This is deep and real. I can relate. I am here also running away from such experiences. Brighter days are yet to come
This was real,raw and unfiltered. Its amazing to see this side of my favorite local boy band. Bien you're amazing, you're winning. And that is all that matters. ❤❤❤
I can totally relate with this story like you will never believe. I also watched my dad give up. Yours was githeri ours was ugali and skuma, to this day i am not a fan of ugali
You are going to be at that point where you need and no one is there to give because i also saw the same with my dad
"Where was God during that time you ask?" He was orchestrating the Upperhill meet up with Savara and Chimano to lead to Satisol. All things work together for good
Amen.
Pole Adhis.
Wah! What a story,so real and so raw.It is so true when you are in the darkest moments that's when you know your real friends.Thank God for the Sautisol brotherhood.Aluta continua.
Bien is a powerful orator. I was disappointed when it ended. I need more please.
Struggling financially while growing up is something I relate to very well.
Thanks for sharing
i knoooooow, i always love to hear him speak, he is such a good orator but so is Chimano
True too nice too short
Pole Ann. May you never lack
Aki, can so relate.
My father slipped away into depression drank himself into kidney damage and strokes and death.
Ahsante Bien💕
Who else liked before watching that is the love we have for bien and sauti sol😍
Oh! My! My life story, our neighbours laughed at us and my Dad’s friends pushed the bank to auction our home quicker. For me I must say I prayed and on a Monday my Dad got a friend to lend him money for the bank while on Wednesday was the auction day for our home. Although Dad lost other property through this friend lending him money, we had prayed for our home to be saved. Today every time I give I remember my parents giving. Bien take that experience as humble experience to know life on the other side.✌🏾
Wow 😯 everyone has a story. Thank you for sharing yours. Am inspired
12:28 ~ Our Mom always told us that time will come when all of us won't be able to dine on the same table. That time came and I always grab any opportunity to dine with my siblings.
Bien should have his you tube channel. Such a refined orator
Who doesn’t love Bien and Chiki❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️infinity
I've always wondered where he got his charisma and sense of humour... his relatability. His ability to speak to people's hope and dreams.
Now we know.

"Where are all the friends😥" But who is God, He raises us to heights we never imagined and grants us Grace that is sufficient for all seasons...
Brighter days, are yet to come.... life experiences mould us who we are.... quite inspiring .....JAH bless
When times are tough ,friends are few and that's when you your real friends
Hello 👋 namesake
Oh boy, this is so deep and it made me sad at a point
"You will never see Bien popping bottles in a club." "What if I give then end up like my dad who gave and never received" Thanks for this
I understand the need of delayed gratification❤.Wow that's wow❤
I truly relate brother.
Music is where we escape to
Be blessed Bien. Brighter days are coming through.ALO
I truly appreciate Biens story. He is quite the orator. I was waiting to hear more when all of a sudden it was over.
God bless your family, your hard work, your band members and those who blessed you. Life lessons that are priceless.
I listened this with tears since it is a script my family followed. Go broke and everyone leaves like they were never there.
Man, you are just real, I love the honesty. Respect
man.
About 8 years back I listened to sautisol and I swear there's no song I have not smiled to while listening to. Especially when the lead singer opened his mouth... Even before knowing he was the lead singer (that was about 3months back BTW ) I always knew and felt that there's something about his singing. It's not just singing.
These guys bring out tranquility in whatever kind of song they do
I'm just more inspired to listen to them the more.. Big love sautisol...! 💜💜
As Mama said "Brighter days are ahead" and may this be your portion in life. Thanks for keeping it real. You're an inspiration to many, that indeed our past doesn't dictate our future.
This is by far the best engage talk I have come across. You are an inspiration
We are so inspired by this Video!
Cheers to more amazing videos ....
Engage talk at the top
A lotus plant grows in a very muddy pond,,and come out so beautiful,,moral of the story IS problems are the muddy pond and you are lotus plant,,, look how beautiful SOUTI SOL HAS TURNED OUT.....blessings tupu,
I am now certain that brighter days do come! I like that your experience moulded you to be a better person....keep it up!
Well done Bien. Your story is inspiring and proud of you as an alumni of Upper Hill. Never giving up, eloquent and real. Wish you well as your star shines brighter and brighter until the perfect day
Who could have thought that Bien got such a past. But he never allowed it to define his future. A very inspiring story and motivating too. The Dope edition has been the best of Engage talk. Mob lovee💖💖💖💖💖
This is deep,I have learned humans will love you for your position and can't stand you as a person ,am learning to watch who I get to sit with on my table,strong Bien
The composure, eloquence and the flow of words on this talk has kept me pinned and wanting to hear what he has to say next.
Verily, verily the sun shines again to those that trust the Lord. I'm so inspired Bien 👊.
This is a real conversation!!
Such amazing insights. May God give you guys stronger backs to carry the industry. Meanwhile, check out my Nenda Lote Saxophone Cover.
Quick facts
For you to do a good music you have to be mentally upright and that is what sauti sol is made up of, brighter minds. My all time favourite band!
we are the sum total of our life experience...Thanks for sharing Bien! wow
I really enjoyed this serie but with Bien I can relate. My father was a successful barrister and when he faces problems and sickness her own brothers who live in the same neighborhood (in houses he participate to buy) did not came to see him once for 2 years. Years after, he rebuild it all and now they want to come back at home, they want us to be family. It is one the best lesson I received and I am so grateful I experienced that. For some people, you are important just because they can take advantage of you, your pocket and your generosity.
They were coming for help? So why should they come if they can't get thet help? Painfully, that is the situation.
Wow Bien. Good question on where were all the friends and relatives were when your dad was depressed :-(
Why did I just cry?
So raw, so real, so honest❤️❤️
This was amazing EngageTalk!!
Thank you Noel
I doubt this story though he is a cool guy
Noel
Very enlightening, it is very good to never forget where we came from and all the life lessons we have accumulated over the years. Every day we keep on working harder and smarter to change the situation we are in and upgrage to something better
This story of Bien is very similar to mine. except for me and my siblings our parents died and we got reminded at every turn how we are orphans, the disregard, rudeness and being overworked by relatives, especially even till at a point we lived for years in a children's home although our parents were serial givers and sharing with everyone. It changed my relationship with extended family, and my trust in people being there when I need them. But who is the God we serve he restored us from the dark places and now al 3 of us gírls are thriving people now starting to send Hi how are you doing etc because they probably wanna see what they can receive from us. Am not a bitter person but I needed that concern when we felt abandoned and we were in our early teens not now when am a grown 27year old woman. So sorry not sorry I will give anything I want to give to the 2 family members that tried and other people who am not related to before I even waste my time getting invested in the opportunistic people LOL. God is always in control
Très touchant.
Your life story is experienced by many children, families and households. The important lesson of it is that some of them had recovered from all difficulties they faced during their childhood period. They became the cornerstones of their communities as you are one of the current best kenyan singer. The life teachs. You were taught to present a better of you. Bravo.
Am a congolese medical doctor with a master degree in public health after carrying and selling breads brother. God is just wonderful.
The power of a journey 💪💪💪
How on earth did I miss this? Powerful, thought provoking
The ending had me shedding a tear😭. But what i love most is how raw he was with the lessons. I wont be in the club surrounded by fake friends.
The talk was deep but the humour😂😭😭😂😂. Im certain brighter days are yet to come.🤗.
Add storytelling to your bio 😊🧡
Tuma mpesa
You know! Quite the orator
Respect Bien, this is so real. Thank you for sharing your story ❤
Thank you Angela for watching.
“The brighter days are yet to come” captivating and eloquently presented... 😊
Alusa good story man there is this thing though that you may wanna think about deeply, Fate and Destiny things that men have no control over... I can confidently tell you that for you to have such a platform and inspire current and generations to come your family especially your old man had to loose a lot . Imagine if nothing had happened, probably you would never have met Savara and Chimano or even bought a guitar like I used to see you after high school. At times to get to our destinies we sacrifice a lot and experience very painful scenarios. Its always darkest before it dawns
Wow, i am beyond touched. This is by far my best Engage Talk experience. So many lessons to learn. I wish there was a part 2, i am sure he has redeemed his family.
Aptly put... Thank you for being vulnerable with us. Totally related!
Noma Sana, an inspiration man 👊🔥
So inspiring and such an eye opener🙏🏾.
Gosh this is such a powerful story, people come from so far.
Delayed gratification.. Very important lesson on adulting
One day I will be strong enough to tell my story.
This so inspirational and a good lesson to all. Things can change but make the best of your life. Vizuri sana,
Bien, you're not only a musician but a great story teller who chiseled words nicely and put them into powerful form. Please write self help book.
The depth and realness is just wow! The past doesn't have to define your future in a negative way and what better way than to express it in your music and way you live your life. This is definitely a favorite engage story.
This guy .......🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bien🙌🙌. For sure brighter days are yet to come.
Honestly...I cry as I watch the video 😪😪😪...guy so strong 😭 inspiring... disciplined..role model ..do much more Bien...i lov3 you😭😭💖💕, this video just means alots to me and many more am sure 😪😭😍✌️✌️💙💙
Wow...amazing, Brighter days are yet to come.
I am living this right now. I refuse to let this space define me and my future. Thank you for sharing Bien and for reminding me that there are brighter days ahead. I keep holding on.
I love his best. Story telling abilities....
Me too
A great orator!
A story of how your passion can set you free. Delayed gratification. Discernment in people and relationship management. Financial discipline.
This is one great piece of advice through reality.
But I hope Alusa doesn't get mean & self-centered. Hope he will realise that every good that the father did came back to them in due course and nothing was lost.
I hope he becomes an even better man than his father.
I think he means he learnt the essence of saving and having true friends
Your experience taught you how to pick a true friend for a wife. That jumping Chiki is not only gorgeous, but you obviously get along well. You're blessed.
Most relatable conversation
Wow so profound... Such a great lesson... God bless you!!!
What an inspiration, @Bien thanks for reminding me to check my cycles of friends
Thanks Bien .It’s like I was listening to my story only difference was, we did not own even a shack.The experience changes you for life .
Have just watched this twice. Great lessons to learn from His Mum, Dad, Friends, Relatives, Sauti group. Life is unpredictable but the best at the end is everything.
having good support structures i think always helps - through growing up for young kids or in taking risks like a business venture - in spirituality and family values. humility even in expenditure mostly comes from having lost the dignity someone once afforded. it's unfortunate that you have to get there sometimes to understand ground rules, and even that doesn't guarantee it won't happen again - and instead of living in fear of the potential, you have to be hopeful of the outcome, willing to take a chance on strangers and be bold & daring while keeping up your guard...
the stories of success & failure, thank you Bien-Aimè for sharing
So powerful 💯💯 The message is so relevant even in our current time💪🏽🙏🏽
The sound of his voice...omg..bi can't breath 😊😊😊😊😊
