Biography

Born with an innate gift for music, Kino Osheanic of South Africa has embarked on a singular journey towards his zenith in the music industry. Casting our minds back to 2012, Kino emerged as a prodigious DJ under "DJ K1NO," swiftly gaining recognition as one of South Africa's most talented musical talents. His meteoric rise saw him garner sponsorship from esteemed entities such as radio powerhouse "94,7 Highveld Stereo" and the prestigious label "Soul Candi Records," where he later solidified his status as an artist. At the tender age of 12 (2012), Kino made history as the youngest signed artist under the esteemed banner of Soul Candi Records—a distinction that underscores his prodigious aptitude and unwavering dedication to his craft. In a collaborative effort with KashCPT and Junaid Baker, Kino delivers the soul-stirring track "Peace," (2020) enriching the musical landscape with his signature touch. However, it's his chart-topping single "Priorities" (2019) that truly marks a turning point in his career, showcasing his versatility and setting the stage for what's to come. Today, Kino stands at the forefront of the Amapiano movement, ready to unleash his debut album, "Be Another Lincoln, If Not Better" (2024) Featuring local talent, as well as international collaborations with icons like Alton Miller, the Godfather of house music (USA), and vocalist Kélanie (Brazil), this album isn't just a showcase of Kino's musical prowess—it's a testament to his global vision.
