A self-proclaimed social experiment, Kenyan producer, deejay and composer MR. LU has quickly turned into one of the Nu Nairobi scene’s go to producers, working with artists such as Taio and Karun, as well as putting out music as part of the XPRSO collective consisting of RVMP, Mars Maasai and Baby’s Breath.

After developing an early interest in music, MR. LU studied percussion and immersed himself in beat-making between semesters. Not one to lock himself into one genre, MR. LU synthesizes organic, jazzy and heavily percussive and electronic sounds, creating music that spans the sonic spectrum: from bouncy hip-hop, to wavy electronica, to woozy R&B and ambient trap. When he’s not making music, you’ll find LU shooting content, editing and designing. LU’s quirky personality, coupled with his versatility as a producer, live performer, and visual artist make him the consummate artist.
