Celebrity Traitors star King Kenny has released a new single that appears to reference his time on the BBC show, with lyrics about "murdering in plain sight". The 29-year-old content creator released "Don't Let Me Down" on Friday, October 23.
Song references Traitor role
During the rap, Kenny sings: "Through the night you had my back until the morning. Murdering plain sight it's me and you they're calling. I've been running around while I been scheming. So don't be leaving me for no-one else cause I can't do this by myself."
The lyrics come after Kenny was recruited by Maya Jama and James Acaster to be a Traitor on the BBC series. The trio were recently tasked with killing an unsuspecting Faithful in plain sight by "boring them to death" – they had to spray a deadly perfume into a room of their choice, get a Faithful to yawn in that room, and then ask them: "Am I boring you?"
Cliffhanger episode
The episode ended on a cliffhanger, with Faithfuls Ross Kemp and Jerry Hall in the firing line as Acaster and Jama began a yawning frenzy. On Thursday, October 22's episode, it was revealed that the EastEnders star fell victim to their trap.
On Thursday's episode, the Traitors were also tasked with sabotaging a challenge right under the Faithfuls' noses. Acaster declined to help his fellow Traitors complete their part of the mission, deeming it too risky and stating he was "too scared" of being exposed.
Upcoming reveal
The episode ended with another cliffhanger, after the trio debated who to kill between comedian Romesh Ranganathan, actor Bash Croft, and comedian Miranda Hart. Kenny signed away his first murder, which will be revealed to audiences during Friday night's episode.
Kenny, whose real name is Kenny Oghenovo Ojuederie, teased a clip on his Instagram story and said: "I've been grafting in the back." The single's cover art shows Kenny sitting in a grand dining room, and an accompanying music video is expected to be released on Friday.
Kenny, also known as KingKennyTv, is a member of the YouTube collective Beta Squad, alongside Chunkz (Amin Mohammed) and Niko Omilana, who featured on the first season of The Celebrity Traitors. He launched his boxing career in 2022 and creates a mix of content including travel, comedy, and group challenges.
