KiDi shares the inspiration behind his success

The award-winning singer explained why his songs consistently top charts and earn numerous nominations at various music award schemes.

The secular musician attributed his success to God and expressed deep gratitude to his management team for their hard work behind the scenes.

The father of one emphasised that his success has always been a collective effort, stating that collaboration has been central to both his strategy and impact. He also highlighted a trend that has defined the international success of African music over the past decade.

"It’s not by my power or talent that I’ve been able to churn out hits for nine years. We make our music, but at the end of the day, it’s just grace. Shout out to my team as well. I’m nothing without them.

"We’re from a country where there are not many of us,” he noted. “One of the strategies I feel will get us out there and get our names out there is through collaboration. There is so much power in collaboration—two powers coming together to form something amazing."

You can cast your mind to all the African songs in the last decade that have crossed over into the world. Most of the time, the ones with lasting impact have been collaborations. According to him, partnerships are not just creative choices but essential tools for success in the music industry.
