At first glance, 21 year old, Alec Koenen may look like a typical 6” 1’ guy from Minnesota. But spend 15 min with Alec and you’ll soon learn he’s stirred with an undying passion for hip hop and a student of the game. At 10 years old, young Alec spent his days reciting lyrics and beat boxing. He’s inspired by the the flow and delivery of artists like Nas, Big Daddy Kane, Ras Kass & groups like Little Brother and the Low Budget Crew. Alec prides himself in sticking to the true art it came from. His style is raw & rugged yet smooth & laid-back. He’s true to himself and aspires for his lyrics to move and reach others just as rappers before him have empowered him. 

Now Alec has teamed up with Confidence to unleash his first offering to the masses. "I Give It My Heart" takes listeners back to the Golden Age of Hip Hop while still relating to the music today with an updated sound.  Be on the look out for more music from Alec coming soon...

Alec Koenen & Confidence "I Give It My Heart" cuts by DJ Technic

Confidence enlists Born Unique & Jaysaun (Special Teamz) together to bring yet another certified banger to the masses.  He got the idea to get these two heavyweights on a track because of the raw and grittiness they deliver on the mic.  With cuts by his brother, DJ Technic, this joint is sure to deliver sounds that's definitely missing from today's scene.

After the wildly successful Neck Snapping Drums Vol. I, Confidence decided to step back into the lab and bless producers and beatmakers with a new set of sounds. The drum break edition includes 15 breaks, cut up and processed into individual kits of kicks, snare and hats. These aren't your standard breaks just recycled, they're all hand picked and tailored around specific beats created for that authentic feel. So, you're getting drums that were all used in Confidence's own productions. No need to do anything else except to create.

Mixed by the legendary Dj Grazzhoppa

The evolution of Confidence started 17 years ago when he was lucky enough to get his hands on the MPC 2000xl to start creating boom bap hip hop. “Produce What You Feel” embodies the progression and versatility of beats that will take you on a journey through different musical emotions and feelings. The track list plays like a timeline, so you’ll be able to listen to the progression of all the hours and years Confidence has put into mastering his craft. As Rashad once said, “It takes work and focus to get heard and noticed." 

Physical copies will be coming through Ill Adrenaline Records
