Yung Knowledge - Show Out

Now or Never

Yung Knowledge - Cold World

Charles Ford III - known professionally by his stage name Yung Knowledge - always knew he was meant to use his voice for a powerful cause.


That inherent desire to enlighten and motivate via words not only inspired his artist name, it kept him focused and strong throughout his own struggles.


The Atchison, Kansas native was raised by a single mother along with his older brother. He took to artistic expression early, forming a rap group with his brother called AWF - the AK Wild Family. 


Yung Knowledge lived up to his name from the start, soaking up musical knowledge and becoming a do-it-all artist capable of singing, rapping and much more. Even as his skills grew sharper, life’s struggles still remained. His brother was sent to prison, leaving him with a personal void and a torch to carry musically.


His strong spirit and gifts kept him afloat and he found his stride, releasing a series of solo projects called “Still Reppin 1-11” volumes 1, 2 and 3. As his profile rose, he quickly began performing shows alongside popular Strange Music artists Stevie Stone and JL. 


With a proven record backing him and a wealth of experience earned along the way, Yung Knowledge continued to expand his goals and became a motivational speaker and entrepreneur. 


More focused than ever and with plenty of new music on the way, Yung Knowledge is ready to spread his teachings.
