EBR Ep. #25 Knxwledge Write-Up
We are proud to present the tracklist to our 25th Early Bird Radio episode featuring New Jersey native & current Los Angeles based “producer-oso,” @knxwledge. ⠀
⠀
Since popping on the scene in the early 00’s with his instrumental project “Klouds,” Knxwledge has refused to let up. Releasing music at a rate only seen by artists such as Madlib, Dilla & Curren$y. Listen, just to give you an idea, I’m talking over 100 individual projects being available on @bandcamp. From 2010 until present day, Knxwledge has been on an ascent not often seen by a producer. A partnership with the infamous @stonesthrow in 2015 meant that he was able to fully come into his own as an artist. In this case, meaning he was given the flexibility to produce what he wants, when he wants with whomever he chooses. This has led to critically acclaimed beat tapes, critically acclaimed albums, the creation of the duo NxWorries with Anderson .Paak along with a Grammy for his contributions on Kendrick Lamar’s “To Pimp a Butterfly.”⠀
⠀
Knxweldge does a great job blending different genres in his music; jazz, R&B, hip-hop, soul, funk & much more provide the foundation of his sample pool & infinite music catalog. At the end of the day, there isn’t much that’s off limits to this guy & we hope you take the time to check his entire discophroy. Cheers to this inspiring artist!!⠀
