Kane Keid & Xowié Set For Another Musical Link-Up After “Brown Sugar” Success
Kane Keid & Xowié Set For Another Musical Link-Up After “Brown Sugar” Success. Kane Keid is giving listeners another taste of his romantic side, and the response to his latest release appears to be making the moment even sweeter.
The Thembisa-born rapper and storyteller recently took to Instagram to acknowledge the support behind his new single, “Take Time,” expressing gratitude to everyone who has embraced the record. “Lil romance on your timeline. ‘Take Time’ out now! 💕 Thank you for showing it love,” he wrote alongside a reel shared on the platform.
Released on 9 October 2026, “Take Time” features Sino Msolo and Ficz and offers a melodic, laid-back moment in the ongoing rollout of Keid’s SON OF SOiL project. The single was accompanied by an official music video directed by Aimée Lokota, with Siyabonga Mgodlola handling cinematography. Together, they bring the song’s intimate atmosphere to life through visuals that complement its softer musical direction.
On the record, Kane Keid takes a more restrained approach, letting melody, emotion, and thoughtful songwriting take centre stage. Sino Msolo’s soulful vocals and Ficz’s melodic contributions blend naturally with Keid’s delivery, resulting in a smooth offering that captures the beauty of slowing down and making room for romance.
However, the appreciation post was not the only reason for excitement. Keid also used the opportunity to give listeners a glimpse of what’s coming next, revealing that another collaboration is on the way.
“Got something new dropping with @xowieofficial this week,” he added, teasing an upcoming release with R&B singer Xowié.
The announcement is particularly interesting given the musical history between the two artists. They previously joined forces on “Brown Sugar,” a neo-soul offering built around warm melodies, intimate songwriting and nostalgic 90s-inspired R&B textures. Their earlier collaboration showcased a natural musical connection, making the prospect of another release an exciting one for listeners who enjoyed their previous work.
With his debut album on the horizon, Kane Keid continues to explore different shades of his artistry while maintaining a clear connection to the romantic and melodic elements of his sound. As “Take Time” continues finding its audience, his upcoming reunion with Xowié could offer another memorable moment in his evolving musical journey.
“Take Time,” featuring Sino Msolo and Ficz, is available on major streaming platforms, while its official music video can be found on YouTube. The new collaboration with Xowié is expected to arrive later this week.
