Kenny B (1961), stage name of Kenneth Bron, is a Surinamese-Dutch singer-songwriter. He was born in Paramaribo and worked for the army as peace negotiator.
In 1991 he moved to the Netherlands and started a career as a singer. However, he sang only in Surinamese and English and had dozens of hits in Suriname, like the number one hit 'You there'/'A sama de' (2008).
His music styles are reggae and dancehall (or raggamuffin). In 2015 Kenny B released his first single in Dutch, 'When you leave'/'Als je gaat'. In the same year followed his breakthrough in the Netherlands, with the hit 'Paris'/'Parijs'.

The above song 'Paris'/'Parijs' (2015) had a number one position in the National Hit Pararade Top 40 for 7 weeks. It was streamed about 30 million times on YouTube and about just as often on Spotify. In 2016 Kenny B won a 100%NL Award and an Edison Award for this song. The song is voted into the Top 2000 (traditionally broadcasted on the radio the last week of the year) since 2015.
The women's names in the song refer to well-known (and pretty) Dutch women. Doutzen Kroes is an international top model, Edsilia Rombley and Anouk Teeuwe are singers. The airport Schiphol is the biggest airport of the Netherlands, near Amsterdam.
This song is a bilingual song: Dutch is combined with French. The most famous example is the English-French 'Michelle' by The Beatles ('ma belle, these are words...', 1965). Other bilingual songs on this website include e.g. Dutch-English and Dutch-Surinamese.
