Biography

KK is a multifaceted artist who emerged on the Brazilian music scene with a trajectory marked by versatility and the ability to move across different musical genres. Born in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, he began his musical career in his teens, initially as a drummer in various bands. His songwriting streak soon stood out, resulting in a body of work ranging from pop rock, influenced by the rich musical scene of Minas Gerais, to trap and bossa nova.

A milestone in his career was the release of the track "1NOJO" in 2017, which went viral and projected him nationally. However, the sudden success led him to a strategic pause to reconnect with his artistic essence and mature. This period of introspection resulted in the album "Nova Bossa", where KK explores themes such as mental health, self-knowledge, and overcoming challenges, fusing modern beats with influences from Brazilian music and bossa nova, proposing a new path for trap.

KK is also known for his album "A Gente Tenta Até Conseguir", which features a mix of pop rock and Brazilian music strands, with lyrics carrying positive and humorous messages. His work is inspired by great names of music from Minas Gerais, such as Milton Nascimento and Skank, and demonstrates a continuous desire to innovate and leave his mark on Brazil's music, following a legacy of artists who shaped the country's sound.
