Titled CHOSEN, the album is scheduled for release on December 16 and will feature 11 tracks. Collaborations on the project include artists Sey_Blessed, Stunna, and Elena Manuele.

Kean has already dabbled in music production. In 2023, he dropped his debut single OUTFIT in collaboration with rap group 19F. Back in 2019, he appeared in a music video for Turin-based rapper Boro Boro.

The striker follows in the footsteps of other footballers who have pursued music careers. Dutch forward Memphis Depay has delighted fans with his rap tracks and music videos. Additionally, Serie A player Rafael Leão released his first studio album Beginning in 2021, followed by a second album, Way 45, in 2023.

While exploring music, Kean continues to impress on the pitch. The Fiorentina star has already netted 13 goals in 16 matches across all competitions this season, showcasing his dual talents both as a player and as an emerging rapper.
