Full Biography
Johnny Kaikllo is a bold, multi-talented creative force emerging from the rich soil of Sierra Leone, now rising to command global attention with his voice, vision, and unshakable purpose. A gifted artist, music producer, songwriter, performer, and creative entrepreneur, Johnny is the founder and lead talent behind Tears Muszk, the sonic arm of Tears Productions Company LLC.
From the streets of Freetown to the stages of the world, Johnny’s music captures the soul of a people, the pain of struggle, and the beauty of cultural identity. His songs are more than rhythms—they are documented experiences filled with truth, vulnerability, and raw emotion. Whether delivering an Afrobeat anthem, a soulful ballad, or a politically charged narrative, Johnny uses sound as a weapon of change.
A respected lyricist, Johnny’s pen bleeds with meaning. His ability to write, produce, arrange, and perform his own music marks him as one of the most complete African artists of his generation. His sound blends genres—Afrobeat, gospel soul, R&B, spoken word, street rhythm, and global pop—with a uniquely African core.
In 2025, Johnny officially launched his label in the United States, marking a major milestone in his career. His highly anticipated second studio album, “The Good Old Days,” is a five-track masterpiece featuring cultural storytelling at its finest:
- This Is Freetown
- Love Na Sorrow Na Pain
- Aa Faty
- Who Dea Go
- The Prostitute
These tracks serve not only as songs but as artistic archives—each a proof of Johnny’s musical brilliance and fearless message.
Beyond the music, Johnny Kaikllo is also a fashion-forward personality, cultural ambassador, and passionate advocate for peace, youth empowerment, and creative freedom. His performances often blend spoken word, fashion, music, and storytelling, creating an immersive experience that transcends borders.
Tears Muszk, under his direction, is a label built not just to produce music, but to develop artists, empower stories, and amplify African voices on the global stage.
