Biko Black was born in London and shortly after, he and his parents moved back to the 
country in Africa where they are from, Gabon. His family bought him a piano when he was 
five, and he was an enthusiastic participant at fire ceremonies (a significant component of 
Gabonese culture) where drums and other instruments were played. He became very 
passionate about music at an early age, but had to prioritize learning English when his family 
immigrated to the United States. 
By the time Biko Black turned 14, he had the basics of the language down and got back to the 
music. Still, he remained shy until he was in his 20s due to a language barrier. During that 
time, he found refuge in his tight-knit family and music from Tupac, Young Jeezy, Kendrick 
Lamar, and J Cole. While attending New Mexico Highlands University, Biko Black learned 
more about music by working at the college radio station, fell into music engineering, and was 
highlighted in the school newspaper. 
In his music, Biko Black tells stories about the struggles he’s encountered in the States and 
back in Africa. He’s naturally very observant, a good listener, and has two perspectives – as a 
foreigner, and now, as an America. In that, Biko Black has sage words regarding topics like 
governmental affairs and incarceration. His accent adds flavor to his flow, and he tells 
cohesive stories, rapping in both French and English on a single track.

I want to make a difference in the world. I want my music to influence those around me. I want to prove that music is more than sounds, its power. And with power, we can make change. We just have to have faith!

Musician, song writer, beat maker, rapper.
