One friend said: "He was the most humblest person anyone could meet. He was the sweetest person.
"He wouldn't hurt anybody. No matter who you were he would put you under his wing. He cared about everyone."
Other pals have shared photos of Keane, who they described as a "bubbly young boy" who was "doing well for himself".
The Metropolitan Police said there has been no arrests at this stage.
Witnesses who are yet to speak with police or anyone with information are asked to call the force on 101, ref 8532/05jul.
DCI Dan O'Sullivan said: "We’re in the very early stages of our work and pursuing a number of leads and enquiries following this sad and needless loss of another young life on the streets of London.
"My officers will do all they to find the person or persons responsible.
“A number of people has spoken to us already, but there are more who have yet to come forward. I’m appealing to those people directly to tell speak to us about what they know.
"There could be information, video or images captured that may well prove crucial in bringing the young victim’s family justice."
Keane's death comes amid another wave of violence of London.
The number of teenagers stabbed in the capital in 2021 now stands at 21.
