Rwandan rapper Ish Kevin is set to release his highly anticipated album, Trappish III: Win Some, Lose Some, on 18 September 2026.
The album offers an honest snapshot of Ish Kevin’s journey, exploring the wins, losses, pressure, ambition, relationships, lifestyle and lessons that come with pursuing a bigger life. At its heart, Win Some, Lose Some reflects the reality that success is never a straight path—you win, you lose, you learn and you keep moving.
Musically, the project moves across a wide range of sounds and experiences. The socially conscious “Abajeune” introduces the album’s message-driven side, while tracks such as “Aura,” “Loved & Hated” and “Chat Chat” explore confidence, growth, criticism and resilience.
High-energy records including “Question” bring a youthful, party-ready sound, while “Twaje” blends Rwandan traditional influences with broader East African sounds. Songs such as “Ndabaga,” “Body,” “Best Friend,” “Money” and “Back 2 Back” explore love, freedom, ambition, financial success and the realities of a fast-moving lifestyle.

With a diverse lineup of collaborators and sounds, Trappish III demonstrates that Trappish is more than one musical style—it is a culture and a space where different stories, emotions and experiences can exist together.
“This album represents every part of the journey—the wins, the losses and the lessons in between. Trappish is bigger than one sound. It is about continuing to move forward, no matter what the journey brings,” says Ish Kevin.
Trappish III: Win Some, Lose Some will be released on 18 September 2026.
