mau from nowhere blends hip-hop, R&B, and electronic textures into a soulful, genre-bending sound shaped between Nairobi, the UK, and the Netherlands. His music is both urgent and meditative — weaving melodic raps with reflective songwriting — drawing comparisons to Obongjayar, Noname, and Yinka Bernie, with influences spanning Outkast to Bloc Party.
His 2025 collaborative album PRESSURE with producer hihi, featuring COLORS-backed single “Let It Pass,” earned global attention from OkayAfrica, Music Crowns, and Wordplay Magazine. In 2024, his EP SOFT STEPS was praised by CLASH, Atwood, and 1883 for its fearless experimentation, following earlier projects including The Universe is Holding You.

Named Apple Music’s Up Next Artist (May 2023) and spotlighted on COLORS, he continues carving out a borderless sonic identity with global reach.
