The MusicBank imprint during Kenya’s Independence day, 12 Dec 2016 released a 12 track EP by RAJ that is titled B.A.E.(Beautiful And Exquisite). The EP Launch that was dubbed BAE Concert happened on 10th Dec at Uhuru Gardens (a historic memorial park) to celebrate the new EP.

The EP, Beautiful And Exquisite , was formed off the back of an extremely difficult time for RAJ, the loss of a close friend, and his on and of relationship with his then girlfriend. Emotionally drained and feeling somewhat lost, RAJ, dealt with his pain by channeling it into a sonically stripped down EP.

The Obe Baba hitmaker becomes the first Kenyan artist to complete an 18 week music series release dubbed BAE Tuesday , a weekly music giveaway that saw him release exclusive music every Tuesday since August till December, a node only identified with American Grammy Award winner, producer and artist Kanye West.
