KiDi is a Ghanaian singer, songwriter, and producer whose voice has become one of the defining sounds of African pop. He began gaining attention through his appearances at Moonlight Café; a live music show on Ghana's university campuses, before winning the 2015 MTN Hitmaker competition and signing with Lynx Entertainment, the beginning of a run that would make him one of the most-streamed Ghanaian artists in history.

His 2017 single "Odo," later remixed with Davido and Mayorkun, announced him as a force beyond Ghana's borders. What followed was relentless: a debut album, Sugar (2019), the Blue EP (2020), which featured fan favourites "Say Cheese" and "One Man"; and a second album, 'The Golden Boy' (2021). KiDi is the first Ghanaian artist to win Album of the Year for both of his studio albums. *The Golden Boy* produced the global phenomenon "Touch It," a song that broke the record for the most-streamed Ghanaian track on Spotify, went viral across TikTok, earned a remix with Tyga, and carried KiDi's name to charts across the UK, the US, and beyond.

With multiple Ghana Music Awards wins including Artiste of the Year (2022), a MOBO Award nomination, and performances at major stages from London's Indigo O2 to Afro Nation, KiDi has established himself as one of the most complete artists in West Africa — a rare combination of songwriter, producer, and electrifying live performer.
