Artist Bio

05/21/2013

Kenneth Eaddy (born in Bridgeport, Connecticut), better known by his stage name K.I. is a rapper and rising star. He is best known for being the first artist signed to Music Unlimited Records and remixing every hot song on the radio and making it better than the original. K.I. has released three mixtapes, I Want In, Angels & Demons and Evolution.

The rap world is at a crossroads in the light of shrinking budgets and 360 deals. Music executives resting on their laurels find the next YouTube sensation with catchy hooks and dance moves to collect digital singles sales. While many artists have tried to break through in spite of an industry melt few have been met with the critical praise and acclaim of K.I. Looking to excel where his contemporaries have failed the Connecticut native gives promise of a new day in hip hop.

While being raised by his mother, K.I.'s hometown of Bridgeport gave a lot of sights and experiences that would shape his sound. K.I. fell into rapping at 17 years old after years of being exposed to rhyming while hanging out in the neighborhood watching rap battles. He was connected directly from there on. He dug deep into the music of hip hop artists such as Styles P, Jay Z and Nas taking away a love for telling stories with unbridled rigor seizing every opportunity put pen to paper. At age 19 K.I. found himself with composition notebooks full of rhymes, but no beats to record them over. A childhood friend, Joshua Miranda better known as DJ Invizible, was just starting to get into the producing game and after hearing K.I. rhyme over one of his beats a lifelong partnership was formed. K.I. spent all his free time writing songs that would lay the groundwork for what his style has evolved into today.

After gaining local notoriety and feeling the need to be heard K.I., along with DJ Invizible, formed Port Authority Records. Port Authority signed a deal with independent label Music Unlimited Records. After polishing his sound K.I. released his debut mixtape properly titled "I Want In" hosted by his business partner. With a concept shedding light on the falling music industry and its tired gimmicks the mixtape put everyone on notice that K.I. was coming to do things his own way.

With such a diverse display K.I. is ready to wake up a dormant industry and cement his name in this game, but more than that with his debut album "Writing Is My Therapy" currently in production, he hopes to change the current wave of rap music swinging it in a more meaningful, realistic and passionate direction.
