Kadeem Ramsay’s understated and chiling performance as Kit, Michael’s righthand man in Top Boy, was one of the show’s finest. He’s also celebrated for his standout role in 2019’s Blue Story, but lately, his focus has been on music.
Kadeem, whose rap name is KVDZ, debuted in 2022 with Smila on “Caution”, but now he’s back with his first solo track, “8th Floor”, and it looks as if he’s got some real momentum behind him.
Freddie Mines produces while KVDZ tells the story of some of the bleak things he saw growing up. Unvarnished and honest, there’s no glamourising; if anything, he couldn’t be more grateful to have put it all behind him.
No doubt there’s more to come from KVDZ in the near future. For now, though, press play on the “8th Floor” visuals above and be sure to add the song to your playlists.
