With the combination of dope rhymes and catchy tunes, K.O. Kid (born Kobla Hargett) has quickly developed a strong following. In a short eighteen month span, K.O. built up a buzz by recording and releasing his debut mixtape, Dr.'s Orders. Flanked by childhood friend Ladro (Paul Barker) the two came out with a mixtape that centered around intelligent rhymes and a mixture of soulful, jazzy, and funky beats. K.O., born and raised in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, is a hip-hop artist who has always had a passion for music. He began to take his career seriously after he became a freestyling sensation at East Carolina University. Growing up listening his parents playing Gil Scott-Heron and Al Green records, K.O. developed a diverse musical background that has helped him further his hip-hop aspirations. K.O. coupled that deep routed background with some more modern influences, such as Jay-Z, Nas, J.Cole, Wiz Khalifa, Lupe Fiasco, etc., to create his own sound and unique style.
