BloodKid Unpacks His Relationship with BQuan & Reveals Why Promoters Failed to Book Him | theZMBTalks

Zambian rapper BloodKid spoke with theZMBTalks in a candid interview about his music career, his working relationship with fellow rapper BQuan, and the challenges he has faced with event promoters, giving fans insight into the realities of the Zambian music industry.

BloodKid says his relationship with BQuAn is built on trust, respect, and collaboration. Despite some competitive energy, their bond remains supportive and helps both artists grow professionally.

“BQuAn and I, we’ve always respected each other. We vibe, we collaborate, and at the end of the day, it’s about pushing Zambian hip-hop forward together,” BloodKid explained.

The rapper acknowledged that fans often speculate about rivalries between artists, but clarified that their relationship is built on creativity, understanding, and shared goals. For BloodKid, transparency about relationships in the industry matters because it sets a tone for younger artists navigating similar spaces.

The Promoter Problem: Why Shows Don’t Always Happen

One of the most revealing parts of the interview centered around why promoters have repeatedly failed to book BloodKid for shows. According to the artist, this isn’t about his talent or popularity — it’s about industry mismanagement and communication breakdowns.

“It’s frustrating because you put in the work, you build your brand, but some promoters just don’t follow through. Sometimes it’s money issues, sometimes it’s poor planning, but the artist ends up taking the blame,” BloodKid said.
