The renowned fast-rising Nigerian rapper and producer Kiienka released his highly-anticipated sophomore mix tape “Spaceman 2.0” on Friday, 8th May 2020.
Largely produced by Kiienka himself, Spaceman 2.0 has a hard-hitting blend of modern-day trap and R&B with amazing vocal melodies.
Just last month before releasing the EP, Kiienka returned with "In the Ends", the first taste of the new project.
Upon arrival, Spotify plugged the track on the No Wahala playlist while Apple Music touted it on New Music Daily, Mood, The New Africa, African Hip-hop, Hot Tracks, and Alte Cruise. The NATIVE also praised the single stating “it serves as a thrilling peek into what we should be expecting. where Veen lays down the song’s layered, psychedelic trap beat, accentuating Kiienka’s brag-filled raps about sipping Hennessy and independently making it to the top with no help.”
Kiienka along with his brother, VEEN, revolutionized the hip-hop scene in their home city of Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Spaceman 2.0. becomes a bold statement from the young star proving that he is certainly one of Africa’s major artists to watch in 2020.
