Kabeaushé is an alter ego of 29‑year old artist and producer Kabochi Gitau. A formidable and wildly-dressed character, Kabeaushé produces an eccentric blend of pop, hip‑hop and electronica on his latest album The Coming Of Gaze. Although Kabochi is originally from Kenya, his career owes much to Nyege Nyege: a Kampala, Uganda‑based collective, festival, community studio and record label. Nyege Nyege founder Derek Debru has brought dozens of underground East African producers, artists and DJs to audiences across Africa, Europe and beyond, and it was he who invited Gitau to travel to Kampala for a residency at the studio.
