Rayvanny Biography
Rayvanny is a Bongo flava artiste from Tanzania and one of the most prominent in the genre thanks to the clout of the record label to which he is signed – WCB Wasafi.
The songster’s interest in music dates back to when he was little. Back in secondary school, he had joined a pop collective called Tip Top Collection and honed his skills as an artiste. That was in 2012.
Three years later, in 2015, he left the group and joined WCB, one of his best decisions, as the label has been instrumental in stamping his name in the consciousness of the music-loving public not only in Tanzania but across Africa.
Rayvanny’s first song under WCB Wasafi is titled “Kwetu,” an instant hit in Tanzania. He has gone on to release several other hits. In fact, at this point in his career, he might be counted among Tanzanian artistes able to drop hits back to back.
