Atlanta, USA – October 3, 2025 – Kenyan hip hop icon Nonini marked his birthday with a groundbreaking musical gift: a brand-new track recorded alongside his teenage son.
The rapper, who turned a year older on Thursday, officially released “Jiamini”, the latest single off his fifth studio album KTRL. But unlike his previous releases, this one is deeply personal — it features his 13-year-old son Jay, performing under the stage name Good Vibes.
A First in Nonini’s 25-Year Career
In his two-and-a-half decades in the music industry, this is the first time Nonini has shared the spotlight with his son. The collaboration, shot in Atlanta, symbolizes both generational pride and a powerful moment of reflection.
“Rapping is my therapy,” Nonini said. “When I pour out the highs and lows of life, it heals me. And when fans connect with those stories, it becomes their therapy too.”
Jiamini: Music as Legacy
The track sees father and son rap side by side, weaving personal storytelling with artistic growth. Nonini described the project as a “360-degree full-circle moment”
Streaming and Fan Reactions
“Jiamini” is now streaming on all major platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Fans have already begun to celebrate the track as the start of a new chapter in Nonini’s legacy.
