Alternative Pop from kibbokid

Hailing from London, emerging artist kibbokid is a singer-songwriter and producer making his own unique style of alternative pop music. Exploring the sonic realms of cinematic and global music, filtered through a subtle rock lens, with his original material he covers themes of folk customs, politics and the human condition in modern day life.

Fresh onto the scene as kibbokid, he’s been working on an album project over the last six years. Now, ready to venture out as a solo artist he brings us the first taste of his solo artistic vision and unveils his sound with his debut single tiled “Follow the Leader”.

With his first effort, kibbokid offers a playful indie pop outing full of Afrobeat-inspired rhythms and a vibrant array of instrumentation. Capped by his infectiously catchy vocal leads carrying upbeat and uplifting lyricism, with “Follow the Leader”, kibbokid makes a compelling creative statement about what we can expect from him this year and beyond.

The perfect showcase of an artist producing a work entirely on their own, kibbokid’s debut single was created in isolation during the pandemic with all musical elements performed by the artist himself. Posing a light-hearted jab at the idea of following a leader, the song captures the notion that no one person can have all the answers to the increasingly complex mix of issues in the modern world.

Memorable, playful and entirely enjoyable, with his first outing as kibbokid, the artist delivers a worthy debut single that builds excitement for his next move.
