Keanu Askar | The Spotlight with Takee

Keanu joined Takee live and in the studio on SYN 90.7 FM to talk all about his music and creative journey so far. 

Keanu Askar is an emerging artist whose music blends vulnerability, melody, and modern production into a sound that feels both global and deeply personal. Drawing from hip-hop, rap, and contemporary pop influences, he creates songs that explore emotion with honesty and intent.
Influenced by artists like The Kid Laroi, Juice WRLD, and Iann Dior, Keanu’s work is rooted in storytelling — transforming real experiences into relatable, emotionally charged music. As a singer, songwriter, and producer, he brings authenticity and precision to every project.
A graduate of Full Sail University in Florida with a degree in Music Production, Keanu has refined his craft in sound design, recording, and audio engineering, developing a skill set that allows him to take complete creative control of his sound.
His latest single, “Aquafina,” channels the highs and lows of modern relationships — inspired by a series of difficult dating experiences reimagined as one story about an unattainable love. It captures the tension between desire and detachment, pairing heartfelt lyrics with sleek, contemporary production.
Keanu recently collaborated with Sydney artist Suhail on several songs for an upcoming EP, continuing to expand his sound and artistic direction.
Born to a Lebanese family and fluent in English, French, and some Arabic, Keanu’s multicultural background gives him a unique creative perspective and global sensibility. With each new release, he continues to evolve as an authentic voice in modern music — unfiltered, emotionally honest, and driven by connection.
