AKA's new single and album to be released

The release of AKA’s new single Company and album Mass Country will go ahead as planned in honour of the slain star.

The single Company in which he collaborated with Nigerian superstar Kiddominant will be released on Friday. The single was recorded in Los Angeles last month. Mass Country is scheduled to hit digital streets on February 24 as per the rapper’s wish.

Born Kiernan Forbes, AKA was shot and killed last week in Durban. Before then he was counting down days to the release of the album. 

Nhlanhla Nivo Ndimande, manager and co-executive producer of Mass Country, shared: “The team was extremely blessed to work so closely on this project with Kiernan. We spent a lot of time mapping out this rollout and creating all the content we have under his direction. Kiernan worked tremendously hard on this project. He put his heart and soul into it, and we were blessed that Kiernan got the opportunity to map out this entire rollout and approve all the elements, so what will be coming out will be as per his direction and his vision. We thank the Forbes family for their faith in the entire team working on this project.”
