More about Lil KMT
Upbeat and unconditionally contagious, Lil KMT’s brand of Hip Hop radiates an abundance of positive energy that simply can’t be contained. The Lexington, South Carolina-based artist touches on themes surrounding his past and the boundaries he’s overcome so far, painting his own vivid life stories in high contrast.
Growing up in Lexington, South Carolina, what began as a calm experience quickly turned into one marked by turbulence as major city developments took place. While the city isn’t particularly known for putting out big name artists, there were a handful who went on to inspire him on his own musical journey.
By the age of 14, he was already deeply immersed in creating music, and used it as an outlet to vent. Throughout his school years, he became a victim of bullying, and it was only natural that music became a vessel for him to channel his frustrations. Despite all this, Lil KMT has kept his chin up, and chooses to create music that inspires, instead of brings others down. You’d be hard pressed to find Lil KMT not looking at the brighter side of life, cracking jokes and lifting spirits of those around him. At his very core lies an individual whose gravitas attracts good people, and good vibes.
