KAM-BU is carving trends and making statements.
KAM-BU’s latest release ‘Are You On?' (produced by none-other than critically acclaimed DJ, Leon Vynehall) is a powerful piece of music. With a crack-laced, intoxicating flow, we can’t get enough. The eerie, disorientating video matches the young rapper’s moody yet contagious sound.
Consciously exploring topics from mental health to wealth, KAM-BU manages to dash some cheeky wit and fun into everything he creates. His debut release‘Different’ featuring I AM NEXT family member Lord Apex left an unforgettable mark on the scene with a blend of inspirations from Jazz, Soul and Drill.
B-U or (B)e Yo(U) is a nod to the notion of self; having the confidence to do you as no one else can. A positive message to hold from a rapper on the rise.
With Boiler Room appearances & Tiffany Calver backing already under his belt, collaborations with Louis Culture, Lord Apex, Pullen and others, the future is bright for London’s budding MC.
A name you soon won’t be able to forget. You heard it here first!
