Bueno

Bueno is the Nairobi-born drill phenom who's been taking Kenya's underground scene by storm. Born in 2003, Bueno cut his teeth in the rap game in his late teens, earning a quick cult following for his unapologetically raw lyrics and no-holds-barred energy. His debut single, “No Time,” dropped in December 2021 and hit like a Molotov, marking his arrival with authority.

In July 2022, Bueno set the drill world ablaze with his feature on the Underdogs Drill Cypher by Drill Digest, a freestyle so intense it went ballistic on social media, leaving everyone buzzing about this new kid with the fire verses. Since then, Bueno has been dropping ruthless freestyles and singles, marking a serious comeback after a hiatus to settle some management issues. His sound? A collision of Kenyan hip-hop’s grit with the jagged edge of drill—keeping it real while blending local flavor with that international drill grit.

Today, signed by PitchR Media (a Ziiki Media content partner managed by Faarah Nur) Bueno’s more than just a rising star; he’s a staple of Kenya’s drill and hip-hop landscape, a name that’s bound to stay on every rap fan’s radar for years.
