For the first time in the history of Rwandan music, projects produced by home-grown musicians are dominating the global charts, producing projects that sit right next to the likes of Asake, Wiz Khalifa and Gunna, among other mega stars on various streaming platforms.

Major record labels in and outside the country are showing interest in Rwandan musicians, but most of the youngsters remain independent without being signed to a record label or management line, which hinders their growth and music distribution.

Shemi's verse on 'Bluecheese' and his remix of Chris Brown and Wizkid's 'Call Me Everyday' alongside MaestroBommin have secured his place at the top of the game, making him one of the promising artists to watch in 2023.One of the best Afro-pop singers in Rwanda, Nillan shot to stardom after the release of his debut album 'City Boy', which was widely acclaimed and introduced the youngster to the Rwandan music industry.

There is no doubt that Nillan, who is also a producer and a graduate of the Nyundo School of Music, is one of the youngsters in Rwanda who can give millions to any record label that would sign him.Ish Kevin has been hailed as the architect of a new Rwandan cultural movement, a localised trap genre with global ambitions known as Trappish music.

Despite starting his own label, Ish Kevin is one of the promising young Rwandan artists who could sign a major deal with some of the world's biggest record labels.
