Eritrean born, London raised artist Wauve is making waves by fearlessly presenting his vibrant heritage in his music, creating a unique sound that bridges the gap between East African rhythms, UK street sensibility, and smooth R&B.

Known for his distinctive blend of R&B infused Afrobeats, the first generation Eritrean immigrant (Robeal Yohannes) has cultivated a sound that is a heartfelt ode to his dual identity. His debut mixtape, Street Serenade, showcased his connection to the streets he grew up on, but his more recent work has deepened its embrace of his roots.

 
This journey is fully realized in his latest single, 'Misken', which translates to 'poor' or 'pity' in several East African languages, suggesting a track that carries emotional weight and narrative depth. Wauve successfully merges the genres he loves the Afrobeats that remind him of his heritage and the R&B he grew up with. 

 
This fusion creates a compelling, fresh vibe, rich with East African flair and the slick production of the London music scene. 'Misken' is more than just a song; it's a statement, a proud presentation of the 🇪🇷 Eritrean diaspora experience expressed through captivating global sounds.

 
Wauve is quickly proving to be an influential act at the forefront of London's musical melting pot, delivering authentic stories with dynamic musicianship. Keep an eye on this rising star as he continues to turn his personal journey into universal anthems.
