Lil Kesh is officially one of the latest set of music stars in Nigeria’s music game. He’s been turning normal songs into hit tracks every other week, featuring in tons of music, and whether you love him or hate him, you probably have an opinion. Few dudes have come up to be this prominent, this quick.
If there’s one thing you could say about Keshy it’s the fact that he’s different from the other indigenous rappers who more often than not want to better Da Grin but the lil man instead tries to be witty while rapping with his local accent.
His effect gets stronger when you realize he is endorsed by several industry heavyweights including his boss Olamide.
Is he special? While we can’t answer that question, we can serve you up some of the reasons why Lil Kesh has gained so much popularity. Here are Lil Kesh’s 10 most essential cuts.
Lil Kesh – Shoki
Lil Kesh bursted into prominence by release a smashing hit single titled Shoki. The single went on to be a street favorite and was well received.
While several youngsters have released hit tracks at one point in their lives, Kesh went on to release several others.
Oga Nla – Olamide ft. Lil Kesh, Pasuma
Off Olamide’s 4th studio album is Oga Nla.
The cut features Fuji veteran Pasuma and Lil Kesh. While most budding artistes disappear in star-studded songs, Lil Kesh made his voice known rapping about how he used to hang on buses from Bariga to Ogbomoso.
Lil Kesh – Last Card
Lil Kesh – Shoki (Remix) ft. Olamide, Davido
Many artistes have failed to release a proper remix to a hit song but Kesh was able to pull it off.
The 21 year old artistes listed his boss Olamide and music star Davido for Shoki remix. The song was released alongside the video without any hype and has went on to see 3 million Youtube views in total.
Lil Kesh – Lyrically
Following the success of Shoki, Lil Kesh released Lyrically… A totally different song from Shoki.
The youngster bragged about the reason why he is sick and of the street.
Apparently, Kesh has something heavier coming through as he followed up Lyrically with monster remix, Shoki
Olamide & Phyno – Ladi ft. Lil Kesh
Probably the latest hit song in Nigeria right now. I underestimated the size of the song until i clubbed outside Lagos, the song came on and the scene went mental.
Words from the grapevine say even kids can familiarize with the verse of Lil Kesh on this song.
Ladi is a pretty average song until Lil Kesh’s verse came on, he killed everyone on this one **Emi Keshi, baba Shoki, ki n ma ladi…**
Lil Kesh – Gbese
Young John produced Gbese is the latest club banger released by the boy. The song didn’t as well as its predecessor, Shoki remix but it’s a song that should be on your playlist.
DJ Jimmy Jatt – Da Yan Mo ft. Lil Kesh, Olamide, Viktor
The reason DJ Jimmy Jatt hasn’t rolled out a video for Da Yan Mo is unknown the song is easily the most viral single off his second album The Industry.
Basking on the buzz of Shoki, Lil Kesh was enlisted by the veteran disc jockey. Kesh and his label mates Olamide and Viktor delivered on the record.
The song will give you a feel to life after Shoki..
Jahbless – 69 Missed Calls ft. Reminisce, Lil Kesh, CDQ, Chinko Ekun, Olamide
Lil Kesh didn’t get a place in Reminisce’s controversial single, “Local Rappers” but Jahbless found him worthy for 69 missed calls.
The video for the song has been shot and hopefully it will shoot the song up the charts but for now Lil Kesh’s track on the song is what we talking about.
Feeling it?
Samklef – Gbese ft. Lil Kesh
The most recent song on the list is Gbese by Samklef.
The fading producer now singer featured the young man on Gbese and he did what he had to do
