Kiaani, a Ghanaian upcoming talent has made great contributions to the Afrobeat genre and the music industry in general.
The singer has been making waves and giving impressive notes all over the charts. He is being closely watched and recognized.
Since the release of his highly anticipated singles “Who´s the King?” and “Give me More”, Kiaani has established himself as one of Afrobeat’s top rising stars.
Kiaani might have come to limelight recently but the young artiste has become a celebrity. Driven by extraordinary energy and ambition not limited to music, he has been making his country’s latest and biggest hits from the new “Money” to the hugely successful “Ginger Me”.
Kiaani explains that the up-tempo sound with its crazy energy owes its origin to rave parties, vibes, energy, dance, are all central components to his music.
The melodious way Kiaani freestyles in his music reveal his passion for his craft.
Even before he became a music artiste, he was already known as a street artiste, who did music freestyle effortlessly. The secret behind this freestyle flows unusual as the conventional style as Kiaani doesn’t even have to follow the rules of music where one has to brainstorm and write down the lyrics.
When Kiaani was asked about the beginning of his love for music, he stated that he had always been a lover of music right from his early days when he used to be a radio keeper for his dad.
He said his parents kicked against the idea of him becoming a music artiste but then turned around to support him when they saw his passion and talent. He said that they are now among his ardent supporters.
The unique Afropop, Afrobeat, dancehall artiste sings in English, Twi and Ga, which are Ghanaian languages.
Although, the Ghanaian music industry has been seeing some vibrancy over the years, Kiaani does not see it as a success story yet. He believes the music industry can do better by having more music artistes being true to themselves. He argues that people don’t appreciate change most time and will rather pay attention to the big stars only.
He asserted that real talents are not being recognized while those without real talent are trending. He feels this is not fair, adding that this is one of the reasons why the country could not bag any nominations at the Grammys.
He said, “I know there are great musicians in Ghana; but my style is different, and I am sure I will be liked by Ghanaians.”
He says this is because he puts life into his music where his passion, melodies, lyrics and story lines are all contributing factors.
Kiaani says his dad; Nana Acheampong, Kofi Antwi, Samini and Bennie Man inspire him.
He has released songs like “Monalisa”, “No Size” and “Vanavakpo”.
He posits that his music carries a message and he wants to preach to others. He also wants to tell the stories of those who don’t have a voice. This is manifest in some of his songs like “For Better For Worse” where Kiaani advises married couples to work out their issues and not rush to divorce because he believes the vows they exchanged are powerful and should not be taken for granted.
Again, in his single track “Distance Love” directed by Slingshot and produced by Mr. Leham Mix, he portrays the love between two people, who are separated by distance. He also states there that the love isn’t only for couples but also between families and friends.
In one of his tracks, “Give Me More”, he talks about how you meet some people and you wish you had met them earlier or wish you would have more of them. He said this could be seen in how women win men’s attention when they are looking good and attractive. This track has its origin from the typical African woman, whilst also speaking about the strength and power she holds.
He is currently signed to the record label “Triff Music”.

itel, the technology empowerment brand for masses, officially unveiled its new product A300+, brand’s first interactive dual-screen smartphone in its price range. itel A300+ comes with a comprehensive set of features — a 7000mAh marathon battery, IP65 military-grade durability, and satellite communication capability, demonstrating that innovation and complete product strength can coexist at an accessible price point.
A First-of-Its-Kind Rear Screen Experience: Interactive Innovation for a New Generation
itel A300+ coming with an interactive rear display is a rare feature in this price category, designed to deliver a smart entertainment experience for young generations. Far from being a cosmetic gimmick, the rear screen provides practical functions built around real everyday scenarios. Users can frame selfies using the higher-quality rear camera with a live preview on the back screen, glance at incoming messages and alerts without waking the main display, and play, pause, or skip tracks directly from the rear screen. The rear display also supports customizable clocks, photos, and designs, giving users a personal window to express their individual style. Complementing the rear screen, the A300+ features a 6.78-inch immersive punch-hole main display, offering a cleaner, more expansive viewing experience for streaming, gaming, browsing, and social media.
Performance and Value in Balance: Delivering Fresh Technology Despite Industry Pressure
Even amid rising industry costs, itel has chosen to bring fresh technology to its products while continuously improving performance and keeping pricing accessible. The A300+ is powered by a 7000mAh marathon battery engineered for long-term reliability, supporting up to 1,200 charging cycles — far exceeding the industry standard, and designed to retain healthy capacity. AI Charging Protection intelligently manages charging patterns to reduce battery degradation, while Smart Power Management optimizes power consumption across apps and hardware to extend usage time between charges.
The device also features 300% ultra-volume DTS stereo speakers, delivering rich, room-filling sound for music, videos, FM radio, and everyday entertainment. Built to withstand daily life and beyond, the A300+ carries IP65 water and dust resistance certification and meets military-grade durability standards, resisting splashes, dust, and accidental drops. Notably, the A300+ includes satellite communication capability, ensuring users can still send basic messages via satellite when cellular networks are unavailable — a safety net in remote areas, during natural disasters, or in other critical situations, setting it apart in its price segment.
The A300+ is built on a clear product philosophy, rather than relying on a single headline feature, it combines its key strengths into one complete product story. The rear screen captures attention first, while battery life, durability, and practical usability make the overall value proposition convincing. With the A300+, itel once again demonstrates its commitment to using innovation to meet the needs and desire for novelty among young users in emerging markets.
The itel A300+ is available in two variants: the 64GB ROM and 128GB ROM and they are both available in all phone retail stores in Nigeria or via online store HERE
