Storyteller

As a TEDx speaker, hip-hop, and spoken word artist, K (as he is affectionately known) believes in the power of storytelling and uses his voice to share the experiences of those around him. His 2021 album, +Vice(pronounced "add vice") covered topics such as grief, feminism, and mental well-being which resulted in K being included in The Calgary Herald's Top 20 Compelling Calgarians for 2022. The album was also nominated for Rap Recording of the year at the YYC Music Awards

Community Builder

As a mentor, K has also been involved in youth programs from Science Genius (a program that teaches middle school children about science through music) to Antyx Arts’ series of workshops for freestyling and artistic practice. This year, he is one of the mentors of the Woezo Africa Black Artist Development program.

Aspiring A&R

As a creative consultant, K has assisted several Calgary artists with social media campaigns and rollout strategies as well as general artistic development. He has also written for the YYC Records music review blog, contributed to the music annotation website, Genuis, and curated a playlist of local music for Village Ice Cream stores.  He has also hosted open mic events such as "Raw Voices” and The Ship and Anchor's "Ship-Hop” Showcase.
