About Kev

Kev grew up surrounded by music, receiving an incredible musical education from his uncle, funk legend George Clinton, starting at just 13 years old. Being around that kind of creative energy every day sparked something deep, and it made him start writing. The realization of his dream to make music wouldn’t begin until 15 years later.In 2009, Kev began creating music as an outlet for frustration, anger and self expression, but what started as therapy quickly evolved into a lifelong craft. His music has since become an honest reflection of who he is, soulful, grounded, and full of heart. Every song carries a piece of his story, blending hip-hop, R&B, and real-life emotion into something that just feels human.Grammy-nominated musician and fellow Washington State artist Q Dot described Kev’s music best:“It’s definitely a different door to go into in the music space right now. He’s got the trap door, the conscious door, the quasi-R&B door and then there’s the Kev door. It’s got all those elements, man.”From his early beginnings learning from one of funk’s greatest minds to now producing, engineering, and performing his own work, Kev continues to build his own lane.That lane is one that’s real, raw, and full of heart.

Sixteen years in, and the music still feels brand new. Every song is a snapshot of growth, experience, and truth, the soundtrack to my story as it keeps unfolding.
