SERIUOS REGGEA BUSINESS

PEACE PERFECT PEACE

Krystalkiller is a music artist from Gabon. Born in France, his family decided to get back to Gabon (his father's contry) 6 month later.

He first started writing since he got 13, connecting his mind with french and american hip-hop music. But, later he has been influenced by Gabonese artists like Lord Ekomy Ndong from Movaizaleine, Johnny B-Good from New Skool, what gave him since 2012 this gabonese oriented touch. Regard to the fact that he was living in the same neighborhood of this guys, and next to the most popular hip-hop studio at the time (Studio Kage) in Libreville, this love for hip-hop had been growing ,day after day. 
 Living there to his 20, when he flew back to France for stuying purpose . 

Surrounded by a better "professsionnal" environment in France, hanging with hip-hop guys, he decided to take this music side more seriously.
Music production is an other part of his skills, what made him produce tracks for big gabonese Hip-hop artists, before releasing his first proper songs in 2013.
 His hip-hop style is a mix of gabonese culture and modernity, also known for this typical gabonese accent in his music voice.
