In the Tanzanian music industry where Amapiano is forced down our throats and Nigeria's Afrobeats is compelled to the mainstream, Bosco Tones' Siri EP acts as a breath of fresh air meant to calm the bustling foreign sounds. Here is our full review of Bosco Tones Siri EP.
Bosco Tones has seen it all. His glamorous voice that decorated the soundtrack of La Familia, which is one of Tanzania's best TV series, has made his recently released EP titled "Siri" an addictive body of work that is meant to soothe your soul.
Speaking on why he decided to go solo in all 5 songs in the EP, Bosco Tones commended that, he did not feature any other artist in the project because the project itself is a secret (Siri is a Swahili for secret) and he felt that he needed to reveal all the secrets messages in the EP alone.
