Kida Kudz (Nigeria)
Know Them Better Through: Nasty (2020)
As Tones and I said in her first EP, the kids are coming, and this 24-year-old is out to prove that. The Nigerian raised artist is known for winning the Peak Talent Show in 2010, but has since moved to the UK to study music. Kida Kudz is doing it all pushing his own Afroswank genre into the mainstream, catching the attention of mainstream hip hop artists, and collaborating with other genre artists to make hit tracks. It wouldn’t be much of a stretch to hear more of Kida Kudz with more mainstream artists in the future.
Kida Kudz releases his first mixtape of the decade with a great set with Flex X6 and Majestical taking the cake. It doesn’t even require that much explanation. A banger is a banger.
