JK-47 – Mixtape Sessions – Studio 188

Studio 188, New World Artists and Arts Queensland presents…

If you’re a Hip Hop fan in Australia, you should by now know the name JK-47. Whether you know him as the Triple J Unearthed Artist of the Year, or from his jaw-dropping Like A Version where he put a fantastic twist on ‘Changes’ by 2Pac, you would already know that the talented Indigenous artist is a force to be reckoned with. It’s no surprise to see acts like Denzel Curry, Hilltop Hoods, Illy, Chillinit, Allday, Nerve and many more showing him love.

At the age of fourteen, JK-47 began writing rhymes and rapping. Over the years his name has become all too familiar, not just on home turf in the shire of Tweed, but also right across the Australian hip-hop landscape. His ability to put pen to pad and produce timeless lyrics, painting pictures with his music, is second to none.

With his sophomore album Revision For Regrowth out in the universe, the world has only just begun to see what JK-47 is capable of. The man is on a mission to touch the hearts & minds of those not just his home country, but all around the world. A mission he will achieve.

JK-47 will be supported by Denzel Kennedy!
