Biography

SHiiKANE originally from Asaba, Delta State, Nigeria; born in London, UK. The band was formed in 2012 while the girls were still attending schools in London. The group name derives from an amalgamation of their first names Shay, Kay and Annamay. SHiiKANE teamed up with producer P2J in 2014 and released a track titled “SugaKANE” which was made “Song of the week” by Toolz of BeatFM 99.9 Lagos Nigeria. Their music is influenced by different musical genres including R&B, rock, hip hop, soul and gospel.
In 2017, SHiiKANE released the song “Oga Police” produced by Kizzbeatz. The song became a viral hit in East Africa. In 2018 The group toured Tanzania, visiting Classic FM Tanzania and met with Vanessa Mdee, Navy Kenzo and Ben Pol. SHiiKANE recorded a song titled ‘Hayaa’ with Tanzanian artist Chin Bees produced by Goncher.
In 2024, SHiiKANE released their debut album Sixty Diamond Seconds, a 16-track project blending Afrobeats, R&B, amapiano, and pop. The record showcased the sisters’ trademark harmonies across high-energy singles such as “4LYF” and "WEREY" along with reflective ensembles like “Toxic” and "Sokoto", and genre-bending tracks including “Casanova”. Critics described the album as a vibrant and emotional debut that established SHiiKANE as a distinctive voice within Afro-Indie music.
Building on that momentum, the group released EP Shards of Eden ''in May 2025''. Consisting of four songs re-imagined from their debut album, the EP was recorded in a stripped-back, one-take live format. Its raw delivery highlighted SHiiKANE’s vocal power and stage presence, drawing praise for its authenticity and indie execution. Together, the two projects mark a creative journey from polished studio experimentation to intimate, performance-driven artistry.

In 2018, SHiiKANE established the Anthonia’s Women and Children Foundation in honour of their late mother, Anthonia. The foundation focuses on community welfare and health initiatives, including tackling period poverty, providing support services for people living with sickle cell disorder, delivering food assistance to vulnerable households, widening young people’s access to IT education, facilitating access to affordable malaria diagnosis and treatment, and offering bursaries to help cover school fees for children from low-income families.
