MBABANE - Eswatini’s newest Amapiano artist Key2Key is having a time of his life, as his first single ‘Sikhiya’ has received massive positive acclaim following its debut into the Eswatini Top 20 charts four weeks ago.

The song has been steadily rising on the charts, landing on number 12 in the past week. Born Meluleki Dlamini and raised in Ezulwini (Mlindazwe) Eswatini, Key2Key started the art of music production while at school at a tender age of 15.

Things turned serious about two years after completing school, whereby the art and craft of producing tunes on FL DAW turned to be more than passion. Teamed up with another capable artist by the name of B-List in 2020, whereby we identified the name Key2Key, based on how we could play around with the keys of a digital keyboard. They released the first project as a Duo with B-List in 2020 titled ‘2by2’ featuring Moyanic. which was quickly followed by another hot single which featured Shinely Greenz titled ‘Vuka’.

He eventually dropped a full 13-track album titled Malambane in April 2021. More singles followed the project whereby we dropped ‘Savana ne Hennessy’ and ‘Tjwala Bam’ which were good tunes too. He went on a seven-day tour in Durban dubbed ‘Fish For Fans Tour’ late in 2021 whereby a number of clubs and community Radio/TV Stations were visited for interviews and performances. The last track they worked on as a duo with B-List was ‘ilokishi’ which featured the song bird Nonzwakazi.

“I then started working as a solo artist late 2022, whereby I identified myself as a the main Key (Skhiya) in my production, which led to me dropping my first E.P  ‘Skhiya’, which features local artists such as Gusi, Dibo and Miles, who are on different tracks too,” said Key2Key in an interview. He has shared the stage with other international artists such as Boity, Uncle Waffles, QMark and Makhadzi, just to name a few.

He mentioned that he was willing to work with more artists locally and internationally, as they share the love and art of music production. His beat making genres ranges from Amapiano, Afro House, Trap and Hip Hop. He is signed and managed by Shicilela Studios since 2020 to current date and still hungry to do more in Music.
