Yes, you read that right—Forever marks Kitticai’s first-ever collaboration and studio recording! (Shocker?) But first, who is Kitticai? Kitticai, a versatile creative known for UX design and graphic art (pssst… he designed the artwork)), is now stepping boldly into music—a passion he’s held onto for years. While Forever Together is his first collab, it’s actually his second release; his debut single, Magyal dem, cleverly riffs on Nairobi’s Sheng culture and the challenge of keeping up with various pet names for women
Teaming up with the talented Maggie Kay, a vocalist with a sweet, angelic voice, the two crafted Forever. Maggie, known for her work on projects like Let It Flow with Kayrop Music, brings warmth and soulful energy to the track.
The inspiration for Forever sparked from a “random” exchange of WhatsApp voice notes while jamming to a YouTube beat—which, funny enough, became the official beat for the song. Together, Maggie Kay and Kitticai tell a story about the cautious thrill of falling for someone special after a journey from friendship to romance. The tone is a mix of bittersweet vulnerability and hope; Maggie Kay’s verse reflects a hesitant heart scarred by past “premium tears”—a phrase alluding to the emotional drama of Nairobi’s dating scene. Yet, the chorus, Forever, Whenever, Together,resonates with a sense of lasting commitment, echoing the universal hope of a love that stays strong against all odds.
Kitticai’s verse brings a lively, flirtatious mood, mixed with vulnerability as he and Maggie navigate their budding romance. His playful lines highlight the push-pull dynamic of their connection, especially with “Unanitext nakughost nani block.” The phrase “Story mingi achana nazo” reflects a desire to move past the drama of former relationships and focus on their current bond. Meanwhile, “Wakosanao ndo wapendanao” (Those who fight are those who love) captures the notion that conflicts can strengthen their relationship, making it both thrilling and authentic.
Overall, this song captures the excitement, hesitation, and complexity of young love, blending vulnerability with a hopeful, fun vibe. The urban sound, driven by Afrobeat rhythms from producer Till We Get There, features sweet chords and head-nodding drums. Combined with relatable lyrics, it resonates with anyone familiar with the Nairobi dating experience.
