KEST

Artist Information

Biography

I was adopted from greece when I was three because my mother tried to kill me by punch outs when my father left her for a russian prostitute. So the Greek police rescued me with a gyro and send me to America to open up a diner. And now I rap sometimes.

Instrumentation

KEST flute.

This anti-bling slinging mc pokes fun at the typical stereotypes of pop culture hip hop, while delivering a refreshing variety of song topics that deal with everything from copycats to our own inner angers. I am not a big fan of hip hop, but I am a big fan of KEST.” -Jimi Schultz.

KEST relays some deep scenarios, but raise the idea of the value of conscience & integrity. What really gives it a unique spin is that you illustrate how each character's actions contributed to tragic or horrific events that ultimately hit home & affected them personally. Great job with the flow on the verses; nice patterns , melodies & cadences in the delivery; at times KEST reminds me of Q-Tip. In the choruses you have an interesting vocal style. It's cool...Overall, KEST is certainly talentd. Keep going and best of luck to KEST"
