Nigerian rapper and singer Lil Kesh is back on the sonic radar with a fresh single titled Anini (Thief), a track that dropped on February 27, 2026 and has already been buzzing across digital platforms.
Anini (Thief) cleverly invokes the name of a notorious 1980s Nigerian outlaw, but rather than glorifying real crime, the title serves as a metaphor, a lyrical way to describe a lover who has “stolen” his heart.
Musically, Anini (Thief) strikes with purposeful intensity right from the first beat. The production is polished and relentless, offering a frantic yet sophisticated backdrop for Lil Kesh’s charismatic delivery.
In Anini (Thief), Lil Kesh delivers not just a beat-driven anthem but a statement: he’s back, still sharp, and still capable of turning life’s metaphors into catchy, electric music that connects with his audience.
