Kenyan singer Bien-Aimé Baraza’s new single, I’ll Be Okay, deals with heartbreak, but part of the online conversation around its video has centred on someone else.

Viewers have been drawn to Aisha Saringe, the model who plays the female lead, and have commented on her screen presence and styling.

Bien released the song on 9 October 2026. It pairs soulful vocals with lyrics about the difficulty of moving on after a relationship ends. As the singer tries to convince himself that things will get better, the video’s female lead has given audiences something else to discuss.
