If you want to get a sense of how deeply respected Kalan is among his peers, just look at the shortlist of his collaborators, a who’s who of modern West Coast hip-hop and R&B: Ohgeesy, Blxst, G Perico, Mozzy, Dom Kennedy, BlueBucks Clan, 1TakeJay, and Westside Boogie. As Pitchfork once said: “when you’re talking about L.A.’s new wave of shit-talking, designer- obsessed rappers, Kalan.FrFr should be included....”

On the Los Angeles asphalt, he’s a mythological figure who has somehow avoided corny myth-making. We can list his hits starting from when “Right Wit It” became a mandatory drop at every house party from San Diego to Seattle or mention the “Hot N’ Ready Freestyle,” where Kalan proved that he could spit as hard as any rapper in your Top 5. We can talk about his scene-stealing performance on Destiny Rogers’ “West Like,” where Kalan comes off like a young Roger Troutman. We can cite his melodic reveries on the Puma Mixtape. But when new album drops, the overarching vision will become crystal clear. The story of how he got here isn’t as important as where he’s going.

TK Kravitz, born Tevin Thompson, is a naturally confident networker and performer. His talent and drive collide to ensure he succeeds at what he sets his sights on, not stopping at anything short of Platinum albums, and a few Grammy Awards. To his credit, TK is a seasoned songwriter, having placements with Trey Songz, Meek Mill, Flo Rida, Kevin Gates, Juicy J and many more.

In early summer 2016, TK Kravitz started working on his self-titled debut solo EP, TK Kravitz. The 11-track EP featured the likes of some of the top artists currently in the industry, including Ty Dolla $ign, Dej Loaf, Rich The Kid, Zoey Dollaz and more. Production was handled by 808 Mafia, Go Grizzly, amongst others. With coverage on XXL Magazine, Hot New Hip Hop, The FADER, WorldStarHipHop, HipHopDX and more, TK took a different approach on this project than many of his counterparts in the same genre.

There’s an absence of melodies in today’s hipster driven Hip-Hop, TK Kravitz held true to his melodic roots. With more than two million streams of the EP in the first two weeks of the release, TK Kravitz is already proving to be a star in his own write. Garnering the attention of major labels, top producers, and even a top secret number one artist, the future is looking very bright for TK Kravitz.
