KANE KEID DROPS NEW SINGLE “TROUBLE AGAIN”
South African rapper and songwriter Kane Keid is gearing up for an exciting new chapter with the release of his latest single, “Trouble Again” featuring Usimamane, a deeply personal project that chronicles his evolution as an artist navigating fame, personal growth, and the pressures of success.
Hailing from Tembisa in the East Rand of Johannesburg, Kane Keid first began his musical journey in 2016, performing in front of school audiences and crafting rhymes inspired by his upbringing and the classic sounds of old-school Hip-Hop, Soul, and R&B. Over the years, he refined his skills, eventually making a name for himself in the South African Hip-Hop scene. His talent was recognized when he competed in the nationally acclaimed ‘Put Me On’ competition by Sportscene, where he secured a spot in the top 10.

Since then, Kane Keid has built an impressive résumé, collaborating with notable artists such as Priddy Ugly, Tyson Sybateli, and Touchline. He has also performed at major events like CottonFest, Sneaker Exchange, and the Back To The City Festival, where he shared a stage with international star Benny The Butcher. With over 300,000 Spotify streams and a growing fan base of over 128,000 Instagram followers, Kane Keid continues to cement his place in the industry.
“Trouble Again” is an introspective track that delves into the recurring struggles Kane faces while staying true to himself in an industry that often demands reinvention. The song blends raw emotion with a powerful narrative, showcasing his signature mix of vulnerability and resilience.
“My journey has been about self-discovery and ambition, and “Trouble Again” reflects the complexities of those experiences,” says Kane Keid. “It’s about confronting my battles, learning from them, and continuing to push forward despite the pressures.”
