Officially released on May 29, 2026, “Niwache” appears on The Lick Back – EP, a 5-track project listed by Apple Music as Nikita Kering’s latest release. The project marks her return with a sharper and more experimental sound after earlier projects such as The Other Side.
The title “Niwache” translates from Swahili as “Leave me alone,” setting the tone for a song about boundaries, self-worth, and reclaiming personal power. Unlike her more familiar soulful ballads, Nikita Kering uses this track to show a tougher side, blending R&B energy with flashes of dancehall, Gengetone, Swahili, English, and Patois influences.
The song fits the wider mood of The Lick Back, a project teased with darker, cinematic visuals and a revenge-driven attitude. Promotional posts around the EP highlighted its May 29 release date, while teasers for “Niwache” drew attention for their dramatic visual direction, including scenes of fire and confrontation.
Through “Niwache,” Nikita Kering delivers an anthem of independence and emotional control, confronting those who have taken her for granted while making it clear that her space, peace, and respect are no longer negotiable.
