Bien Declares Victory with “All My Enemies” – A Powerful Blend of Afro-Gospel and Triumphant Afropop
After two decades at the pinnacle of African music, including a GRAMMY win and countless accolades as co-founder and lead vocalist of Sauti Sol, Bien has consistently proven he’s an artist who dares to reinvent. Following the groundbreaking success of his 2023 solo debut, Alusa, Why Are You Topless?, and hot off the heels of his April single “Safari” featuring Suldaan Seeraar, Bien is back in 2025 with what might be his most spiritually charged release yet: “All My Enemies.” This new record is an electrifying fusion of Afro-Gospel and Triumphant Afropop, delivering a message that is as much a prayer as it is a prophecy.
From its very first beat, “All My Enemies” pulses with undeniable energy and conviction. A rich blend of percussive Afro-fusion drums, atmospheric synths, and gospel-tinged chants sets the stage for Bien’s bold declarations: “All my enemies are suffering… their plans have scattered.” These words, repeated like powerful mantras, build into a chorus that feels like a battle cry transformed into a melody of triumph.
The song draws deeply from scripture, with Bien referencing Psalm 23:5 in the line “Prepare a table for me right before my enemies.” It’s a profound nod to divine vindication, a celebration of blessings received even in the face of opposition.
As the track progresses, Bien shifts into a visionary mode, affirming his destiny with lines like “I see the stars align / When I see my enemies I shoot on sight…” These aren’t just lyrics; they’re affirmations of self-belief and an unshakeable conviction that no force can dim his light. Even when betrayal rears its head, cloaked in false friendship – “They Judas me / Trynna kiss me on my cheek” – Bien responds with poetic clarity and spiritual grit.
The outro transforms into a sonic exorcism, with “Suffering… scatter scatter…” echoing like a final decree over every obstacle standing between him and his purpose.
“All My Enemies” is available now on all streaming platforms, inviting listeners to join Bien in a declaration of victory and unwavering faith.
