Khaid is the stage name of Sulaimon Shekoni Solomon, a Nigerian musician.

He was born in Lagos State, Nigeria, in 2004 and is from the Western area of the country.

Khaid began filming and uploading freestyles on Instagram for the sheer joy of it, tagging celebs such as Don Jazzy, Davido, Wizkid, Burna Boy, Sydney Talker, and a slew of others.

When a buddy watched Khaid’s freestyle videos, Sydney Talker, a Nigerian comedian, became interested in him.
