Renowned Ghanaian artist Kidi, best known for his hit track Cheat On You, has sparked conversation online with his recent remarks about women and their sexual pasts. During his guest appearance on the Gen Z-focused podcast, Rants, Bants And Confessions, the singer opened up about his dating preferences, specifically in relation to women with a high number of past sexual partners.
When the co-host asked whether a woman’s body count influences his interest in a relationship, Kidi gave a candid response.
“If it’s just about having fun, I honestly don’t mind. But when it comes to someone I’d consider for a long-term commitment or marriage, yes, it matters,” he said.
According to the Afrobeat sensation, a woman’s sexual history becomes important when emotions and serious intentions are involved. He admitted that he feels uncomfortable being with someone who has been intimate with many men, especially if several of them are part of his social circle.
“I don’t want to walk into a room and feel like every man there has a past with the woman I’m with,” he explained. “That affects how I perceive her and what we could potentially build together.”
He elaborated further, suggesting that emotional connections with numerous partners over time could lead to what he describes as emotional depletion.
“Each relationship takes something from you,” Kidi said. “If you’ve been through 50 relationships and they’ve all failed, that’s 50 emotional pieces lost. By the time I come in, I might be left with just fragments of who you were originally.”
These comments have drawn mixed reactions on social media, with some agreeing with his viewpoint while others criticize it as judgmental and outdated.
Reactions and Cultural Context
In many African societies, discussions about sexuality—especially when it pertains to women—are often deeply sensitive and tied to cultural expectations. Kidi’s statements, although personal, have reignited debates about gender norms, double standards, and the evolving dynamics of modern relationships.
