Please introduce yourself real quick…
I'm an 18 year old rapper from Joliet Illinois. I love music. Music is something that I have enjoyed nearly my entire life and I have a passion for it. I keep my lyrics truthful. I usually rap about how I feel or what I'm going through. My goal is to provide enjoyable music and relatable content for everyone.
What do you do?
Right now I'm just a college student and currently majoring in music. I'm not sure on what I want for my career, but I'm definitely going to do something related to music if it isn't rap. I truly believe that I could make it far as a rapper. I have friends who want to become rappers and I enjoy helping them start. I also enjoy collaborating and meeting new people I can work with. Other than that, I write lyrics when I can and listen to music every day.
What´s new right now?
My most recent project that I released is 'Dreams & Nightmares'. The project consists of nine songs about the events that occurred in my life throughout the year of 2017, from worries to bad habits, past relationships, and what I was able to learn about myself and take something from it. I collaborated with producers such as Pittmane, The King, H12A, Taylor King, Dj Pain, Fabestar, and Jacob Lethal Beats and have features with GVLD and Aimée Britannia. I'm currently working on new music to start 2018 how I want to. I'm planning to come up with another project but I haven't decided on what I want the project to be called. You can find my music on SoundCloud just by searching 'King Art'.

Are you a superfan of anyone? How did you become a superfan? Do you remember how you become a fan and what turned you into super fan? Have you ever thought about why you´re such a fan?
The first rapper I ever listened to was 50 Cent. The way he became successful is really outstanding and I've always been a big fan of his.

What was the biggest mistake you made when you started making music and what would be the number one tip you could give to a newcomer musician?
My biggest mistake was using up all my time and effort to complete a mixtape and then releasing it without promotion and I barely had any listeners. It is something that I truly regret and it took me a while to move on from it. One tip I give to new musicians is that they should promote themselves as much as they can before releasing any music.
