Fall From Grace - Bien-Aimè Alusa (Sauti Sol)

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.

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.

[estherkinene]

Raw, powerful, and honest. One of the best Engage talks.

[raymondlangat.]

Githeri was just chilling innocently and then BOOM!!! the smear campaign. Its a beautiful story of conquering this journey called life.

[tessnjuguna]

We are what we are because of our experiences... Brighter days are yet to come.

[rahabnduru]

The drive, the talent, the eloquence, the humour, the ability to inspire, I certainly don't regret naming my son Bien.

[mirandaal]

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.

[Mbarie]

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

[lucilleachieng]

This was too short ... Bien is such a good orator I’d listen to him all day ... this was powerful

[SuperKui]

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!

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.

[kennedyosiyo]

We fall. We fail. We break. We rise up. We heal. We keep on fighting through. So powerful oration full of reflections.

I was watching this while very sleepy when I heard him say Kamura Nkoroi & I was like 😲😲😲😲😲. 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. always been a big fan of Sauti sol cause of the upperhill allumini now I am a die hard fan of Bien

[karanjajoshua]

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

[MuthoniDrummerQueen]

This is so so so powerful. Brighter days Bien. Ndio mwanzo wa kufika kileleni!!

[Rhenadhis]

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

[vintageniccur]

Who else liked before watching that is the love we have for bien and sauti sol😍

[chebby]

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.

[estherfanningbijoux]

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.❤️

[alexchege]

In life things have to fall apart for the pieces to fall into place. Very well said. Bien you are good mentor indeed.

[annwangari]

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
