KEV TURNER HIP HOP!

Hip-hop is now the most powerful & well-known musical genre in the world. To some rappers it’s just a way to make money & become famous. To other rappers it’s a way of life. The best rappers in the world eat, sleep, and breathe hip-hop from an early age and they live and learn through the experiences of life and turn it into their own musical journey. This is the case when it comes to Kev Turner.

Kev Turner was born & raised in Philadelphia during the 80’s/90’s era. In a neighborhood where respect is earned and not given, Kev Turner figured he would use the art of hip hop to make him stand out from the rest. Kev Turner began rapping at the age of 10 and has been going non-stop ever since then. His music influences include everything from Jazz to Motown to 80’s classic rock to 90’s hardcore hip-hop.

Kev Turner was first heard on Chops presents "Virtuosity" album released in 2004 on Goodvibe Recordings. The album featured Raekwon, Kanye West, & Talib Kweli just to name a few. Kev Turner is also becoming a well know artist in places such as Germany, the UK, & Africa. His witty flow makes him stand out amongst other rappers & catches the ears of many listeners’ young and old.

In August of 2010 Kev Turner released his album "Soul City Music" produced by Detayl from Chicago. His 90’s boom bap style has the classic hip hop sound, but, yet & still, also has a kind of commercial appeal to it, which is a very odd yet acceptable and preferable combination amongst many hip hop enthusiasts. Kev Turner tweeted the album link to Statik Selektah on twitter and the rest is history. Statik Selektah immediately cosigned the album saying "I don’t usually listen to links that rappers send me on twitter, but I’m glad I listened to this one. Its good to finally hear some good hip hop."





Kev Turner is constantly working on music on a day-to-day basis. He does quite well for an artist that does everything by himself for the most part. Besides make the beats, and I think he’s getting good at that too! Kev Turner is a rare breed of emcee and I would advise everyone that loves good music to check him out. I promise it will be a pleasurable listening experience. Folllow him here
