Oristar: From East Africa to Australia — A Rising Afrobeat Voice With a Global Story


Born in Tanzania, raised in Kenya, and now based in Australia, Oristar is shaping a sound that carries the heartbeat of East Africa into the modern Afrobeat world. His music blends infectious African rhythms, lived experiences, and the vibrant energy of today’s Afropop landscape. More than an artist, he is a storyteller—one whose journey spans continents, cultures, and extraordinary resilience.


Early Beginnings: From Young Zezo to a Solo Vision


Oristar first stepped into music through the band Young Zezo, where he performed as both a vocalist and dancer. The group became his foundation, helping him learn performance craft, stage presence, and confidence. These early experiences paved the way for his transformation into a solo artist with a distinct musical identity.


Guided by influences such as Afrobeat, Afropop, Congo Fleva, Amapiano, and contemporary African music, Oristar began shaping a sound that honours his roots while embracing global trends.


Building a Global Identity


Becoming a solo artist came with challenges. As an independent musician, recording high-quality music was costly, promotion was difficult, and growing an audience required patience and consistency. But Oristar kept pushing, kept improving, and kept releasing.


With time, his following began to expand across TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Spotify—platforms where he now connects with listeners from East Africa to Australia and beyond. Along the way, he has collaborated with rising talents like General YoungKido, with more exciting partnerships on the horizon.


Through it all, he has remained grounded in his East African heritage, allowing his story and culture to guide every stage of his evolution.

Oristar’s latest single, “Kiki,” is a powerful Afrobeat anthem shaped by real-life experiences. The song focuses on hustle, humility, family responsibility, and staying grounded even as life changes.


Instead of glorifying luxury or status, “Kiki” highlights the quiet strength found in hard work, vulnerability, sacrifice, and growth. It reflects Oristar’s own journey—one built on resilience and the determination to rise from humble beginnings.


With this release, he hopes to inspire youth in Australia, East Africa, and around the world, reminding them that their stories, struggles, and journeys matter. As he puts it: Your story is your power. No matter where you start, you can rise.
