Kwesta Blown Away By KidX’s Verse On Lunatik’s Track “Korner Ringa$” From The Album “Press Play”
Kwesta Blown Away By KidX’s Verse On Lunatik’s Track “Korner Ringa$” From The Album “Press Play.” Kwesta left fans buzzing after he shared Producer Lunatik’s new album art on his Instagram story this week while letting a standout moment from the record play over the clip.
The visual was simple, the audio choice deliberate: Kwesta cued KidX’s verse from the closing cut “Korner Ringa$” and added a one-line reaction, “My goodness!!!” The short but decisive endorsement, paired with the actual verse on replay, sent immediate ripples through the South African hip hop community.
“Make sure you check out that new @iamlunatik #PressPlay that just dropped! Pure fire. Honoured to be featured on the last record #KornerRingas (Cornering Us!) 😅” KidX wrote separately, tagging Lunatik and sharing his pride at appearing on the project. Those words, posted by the featured artist himself, help frame why Kwesta chose that very snippet to share with his followers.
Lunatik’s Press Play has drawn attention for its dense, sample-forward production and cinematic touches, and listeners say the album closes with a high note. “Korner Ringa$” sits as the record’s final offering, a track where guest artists are asked to bring both technical skill and personality.
In the clip Kwesta posted, KidX moves through a rapid flow change and clever punchlines that sit tightly on Lunatik’s beat, the verse swelling into an earworm that made Kwesta pause and react in real time. The combination of an iconic veteran’s approval and the audible performance on the story amplified the impact, because fans could hear exactly what had prompted the reaction.
As a respected MC who has navigated the industry for years, his public approval has a habit of elevating moments and spotlighting emerging talent. For KidX, the attention may translate into playlist placements, radio interest, and a wider listener base, especially if repeat listens keep climbing.
