France

Half Maori, half Parisian, and based in Sydney, rising rap star KAHUKX is expanding his global influence with his latest single, France. In this bilingual track, KAHUKX pays tribute to his European heritage while joining forces with fast-rising UK rapper LeoStayTrill. The collaboration, born from a spontaneous studio session during KAHUKX’s visit to London in July, quickly evolved into something special. The synergy between the two artists came naturally, and before long, they realized they had created something powerful.

Since his debut in 2022, KAHUKX has shattered international barriers. His first single, Alone With You, became a global hit, amassing over 100 million streams and earning him 2 platinum and 3 gold records—all by the age of 20. His rapid rise has made him Australia’s fastest-growing artist, cementing his place on the world stage.

LeoStayTrill has experienced a similar meteoric ascent in the UK, receiving co-signs from heavyweights like Santan Dave, Maya Jama, and JME. His global appeal and rapid success over the last year made this collaboration a perfect match.

With France, these two trailblazers from different corners of the world are closing off the year on a high, marking their territory on the global rap scene.
