Abiri Nitanu

+250 — or “Abiri Nitanu” in Kinyarwanda — is more than Rwanda’s country code. Since 2024, it’s become the name of a groundbreaking collective of 16 artists, rappers, producers, and singers redefining Rwanda’s sound.

Born in the highlands of Kigali, +250 represents a new generation turning pain into power — blending traditional instruments with trap, hip-hop, and soulful melodies. Featuring Bushali, Slum Drip, Sema Solé, Ish Kevin, Nikita Heaven, Dr. Nganji, ProZed, KushBeatz, and more, their debut album is a 100% DIY manifesto dropping in 2025.

Recorded between 2024–2025 in Kigali with Grammy-nominated producer Roark Bailey, +250 captures the voice of a nation rising — a soundtrack of resilience, identity, and creativity from the land of a thousand hills.
