Brum-Town’s very own rising prodigy Kavo joins forces with Grime veteran RA in chilling drill cut ‘AIRFORCE ONE’ – the first release in 2022 from the young star following his recently acclaimed “Next Up” feature for MIXTAPE MADNESS.
The young Rwandan-native pulls inspiration from the likes of Jay-Z and 2Pac as we hear complete resolute confidence seeping out of every bar on ‘AIRFORCE ONE’. His devilish delivery flows effortlessly across a simple instrumental – echoing flutes chant out while punchy percussive hits and bending 808’s create a bounce that’s undefeated. Kavo enlists a true Grime Original in RA (Real Artillery).
Hailing from the streets of Brixton, RA brings electric energy fuelled by the pain and glory of street life – his aggressive flows link perfectly with Kavo’s playful lyricism. Paired with a set of captivating visuals, we see Kavo and friends running around the city of Birmingham, illustrating the exciting lifestyle of youth in society.
Unapologetic about his work ethic and natural ability to grind for the bag, Kavo sits on over 2.5M Spotify streams with his first official release “Billy X Pain Freestyle” racking up over 339K streams and close to 1M YouTube views for the video. The young MC has clocked regular playtime on BBC Radio 1 by Tiffany Calver, also gaining major attention from legendary MC’s Skepta, D Double E and Digga D, to football superstars Raheem Sterling and Alexandre Lacazette.
Continuing his rise to stardom, the releases of “Fuck GCSEs X Truth Freestyle” and “Lean” – which collectively amassed 1M streams across Spotify and YouTube – bagged him an opening performance for D Double E’s headline tour at O2 Institute in Birmingham. With less than a year in the game, Kavo has achieved what many couldn’t in their whole career – establishing him as a serious talent who should not be slept on.
Entering 2022, Kavo is set on course for rap greatness. Love from his ever-growing fan base and constant support from the likes of GRM DAILY and MIXTAPE MADNESS will continue to fuel his hunger for creating music and allow his voice to speak for the youth of today. With ‘AIRFORCE ONE’ set to release on the 16th January, we hear the first of many tracks in 2022 from one of the most exciting talents in the game.
‘Airforce One’ is available now via all major platforms.
