In February last year I did a V-pop round-up post featuring the Vietnamese posts previously shared on Star Sparkle, plus some new music. You can see that here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/02/v-pop-round-up.html So for 2024, so I thought I'd share some more Vietnamese music and dance that I've featured since then, as well as new videos. :) Music Music video for Ulala by Kim Kunni feat.

This week's video is Precious by Kenyan singer Xenia Manasseh . It's from her debut album LOVE / HATE Pt. 1 which came out last September and I think it's the 4th single to be released. The first single was Lowkey, which came out back in December 2020. The single prior to Precious was Anticipate featuring fellow Kenyan singer Karun , released in July 2023. Precious is an English language R'n'B song, which is about acknowledging your self-worth when it comes to relationships. It was released in December. I especially like the music. :) For more songs from the album, visit these links: Music video for Lowkey, the 1st single: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2021/03/weekly-music-video_17.html Anticipate feat.
