New Discoveries: King Kel

In this generation, there are tonnes of London based producers and sound engineers, and the numbers just seem to be increasing. However, as the numbers are growing so is the amount of amateurs and beginners trying to get their music out there. That's why it was so refreshing to stumble on King Kel's soundcloud and find a wide range of quality tracks.

King Kel's last release - The Prelude - was a really easy listen. I loved the second track "The Prophet". All in all, this record just shows such huge potential and in time this could become a big brand.

Often collaborating with Sykes Beats and Mr. Roneo; King Kel is also a part of the UK hip hop collective - UKMAMA with Herbivore the MediC and Benjamin Saint. The creators are busy putting out new mixtapes, EPs and tracks for download regularly and each at a "name your price" value. It's super refreshing just to see people doing it for the music and not simply for what they might gain. That's not to say that they're the only ones, but it's always good to see!

King Kel and Herbivore the MediC are currently working together under the name WZRDZ and have a new album coming out at the end of April. Have a listen to the first single from the record - "A King And His Horse" below...
