Nikita Kering shares details about her relationship with rapper Lil Maina
Award-winning singer Nikita Kering and “Kishash” hitmaker Lil Maina continue to fuel dating rumors with their frequent public displays of affection (PDA).
The two have been enjoying each other’s company for the past two years and openly share their moments on social media. Their first notable PDA was during Omah Lay’s concert in 2021 when Nikita invited Lil Maina on stage during her performance. She repeated this gesture at last month’s Blankets & Wine event, further sparking speculations about their relationship.

However, in an interview with Nairobi News, Nikita firmly denied being in a relationship with Lil Maina, emphasizing that her current priority is her music career.
“Right now, I am single and focusing on my music. There are still things I want to achieve before considering dating,” she clarified.
In a previous interview, Lil Maina described his relationship with Nikita as purely platonic.
The duo is currently collaborating on a new track set to be released later this year. “We’ve been working on some music together, and I hope it will be one of the first tracks to drop from my EP. We’ve wanted to collaborate for a while, but the timing was never right. Now, we’ve found a song that suits us both. I’m not setting a release date yet, but it should be out soon,” Nikita added.
At 22, Nikita also reflected on the challenges of fame at a young age, warning that it’s easy to lose focus if not careful. “It’s crucial to remember why you started. It’s easy to get caught up in chasing money, attention, or clout, but you have to stay grounded. Not everyone wins at the same time, and that’s okay. If everyone won at the same time, winning wouldn’t feel as special. Keep honing your craft and improving every day,” she advised.

Regarding social media drama, Nikita said, “I just mind my own business. I’m here strictly for the music, not the drama, so I don’t even need to remind myself to avoid it. I’m simply not interested. My focus is on my music and art, and that’s what I care about sharing with the world.”
