Kenyan music sensation Willy Paul has added “Winjo Maber” to his September 2026 releases, borrowing a familiar Dholuo term, and firmly keeping the single connected to his East African fanbase.
The song has a romantic feel, with Willy Paul talking about loyalty and the work that must be done to be true to one’s partner despite the outside pressure. It comes just after “Mwecheche,” and it’s a very busy time for the Saldido International founder.
The production is Afrosounds style, combining a solid rhythmic base with the melodic delivery of Willy Paul. This regulated tempo allows the vocal delivery to carry the message, and the repetitive phrase provides a convenient point of return for the arrangement.
The release has already enjoyed some valuable awareness through an early local response, with its official visualizer featuring among the trending music videos on YouTube in Kenya. Willy Paul’s proven fanbase across East Africa offers the album a larger space to move beyond its initial Kenyan audience.
