Rising Nigerian star Hazkiddo bares his soul in ‘Trying’, a heartfelt anthem that captures the pain, hope, and perseverance of a young artist navigating love and life’s unpredictable turns.
Born Hakeem Moses Lateef in Ogun State and raised in Lagos, Hazkiddo has steadily carved his name in Nigeria’s ever-evolving music scene.
His journey began in secondary school classrooms, where freestyle sessions turned into melodies, and melodies into dreams.
By 2020, those dreams took flight as he began recording professionally blending smooth vocals, rap verses, and relatable storytelling that reflect the pulse of his generation.
After his breakout single ‘Cast’, won over fans, Hazkiddo solidified his artistry with ‘Dr. Love’, a charming collaboration with Shoday that showcased his romantic charisma.
The song painted him as the ‘Love Docto’ fixing broken hearts with melody and emotion.
Soon after, his debut EP ‘Love & Life’ earned over 500,000 streams, marking a defining moment in his musical evolution.
Now, ‘Trying’ takes a more introspective turn.
It’s a confessional record where Hazkiddo lays bare his struggles, ambitions, and emotional battles a song for anyone fighting to stay afloat in a world that doesn’t always understand their journey.
Backed by lush Afrobeats rhythms and his signature melodic flow, ‘Trying’ is more than just a song; it’s a reminder that persistence, vulnerability, and hope can coexist beautifully.
With every release, Hazkiddo proves he’s not just another emerging artist he’s a voice of his generation, blending authenticity and rhythm into a sound that resonates far beyond Nigeria.
‘Trying’ is his latest masterpiece, a testament to growth, grit, and the power of never giving up.
