Solomon Islander, Lester Kisina aka “Bibao” has been amassing a huge following in recent months after topping the My Jams Music list with Waigho taking the Top streamed song on google last month.
After dropping his recent collab with PNG’s very own YXNG KXNG (Yung King) from Kabbage Gang Entertainment “Namba Wan” on the 23rd of last month under his label 677 Gang Music, the artist is looking to take it up a notch.
“I wanna take it to the next level but I wanna be different.”
At the moment the single is trending in the region, some of our local artist have also jumped on board to collab on a Tiktok challenge set by Kisina to do a remix.
Speaking from Honiara, Kisina told PNG Haus Bung that his inspiration for Namba Wan stems from his battles with his inner demons as he tries to navigate his way through life’s challenges.
He says the song was written purposefully for self-encouragement to those that are going through tough times and feel like they have their backs against the wall.
“I had been through some stuff where em I bin diskarajim mi along the way. So even though whatever you go through may take you down but you must remember that you are worth it, you Namba Wan.”
When asked how he found himself collaborating with PNG’s Premier Comic, Kisina said it was a funny story.
A shocker really, as it turns out Bibao is a huge fan turned mate of YXNG KXNG from Kabbage Gang.
“In one of my videos I saw the dude react to the video. I was like what??? He sees my content!! I posted another one and he reacted to it.”
It was through this that Kisina got to reach out and connect with the comic and the rest we can say is history.
Nau yet, Kisina says he is focusing on producing good music and working on content for his socials as he also does street interviews with school kids to which he awards them with prizes.
He says he’s hopeful about the future and has dreams of one day doing good enough internationally.
