Kyng Drama Perspective on Came From Nothing - Demo

I'm Kyng Drama a rap artist/songwriter/producer/engineer from the country side of North Carolina 

Well the title is really self explanatory I really come from nothing a small town out of  North Carolina called Clarkton located at the bottom of the map I basically took what was around me and put into music which isn't much considering it's an small area there's no media outlet scenery no real big chances or opportunities that's around to get exposure from anything major like sports programs, jobs, no local studios or anything for that matter other than you normal things that goes on in every hood just on a way smaller scale 

My earliest memories of me listening to and vibing with music dates back to the 90's I was a huge Tupac and Snoop Dogg fan growing up and lil Wayne to like almost anybody else around that time but I really tooken a liking into music around the Gucci Mane era that's kinda the vibes I was around and I related more to the trap style of music especially listening to those Zaytoven beats some of the best days of my life for real

Well I had so many different moments phases that sort of kept me wanting to do music more and more but I would definitely have to say after I performed for the first time (2014) in whiteville, NC and another performance I had in Charlotte, NC as well it was just like a whole nother feeling after that plus I always had people requesting music from me to so that was definitely extra motivation 

To someone who's never heard of me or my music I'll say you'll definitely hear the struggle in there fa show mixed with a little bit of low undertone raspy pain I make based on how I feel and/or situations I may be dealing with and wanna express those feelings and emotions on some fire beats with those dropping jumpy 808s I feel like I make music that really talks threw the bass of the song 

I definitely feel like this is gonna be something new introduced sub genre slum trap is what I'm working on it to become gotta stay tuned to understand what that even means

I want people to feel the slumminest in it, feel where I come from not only hear about it but actually feel what I'm feeling when I'm saying whatever I'm expressing to really know it's real life

Humble Ambitious and Motivated I feel like the game has lost those artist that are real ambitious about the craft and really mastering it and motivated to get to the next level or just motivated period and nobody's really humble it's like they all cocky divas now so I wanna bring the solidness back in the game

Yes sometimes I freestyle to myself to come up with new ideas, phrases, sayings, flows, etc. I feel like you gotta always keep yourself fresh to your craft playing with it and experimenting with it to, writing certain things down keeping your fans feed and eager to see what's next

Now as far as it changing it really hasn't it's just taking it and the business more seriously now then before other than that I try to remember to have fun with the art so it doesn't become dull or boring or it want seem like im forcing myself 

I wanna focus on the life struggles and the beauty within the hustle and the grind for real I planning on showing the world something so different with slum-trap it's gonna take them by storm with authenticity and real life events while at the same time motivating people to get up and get active in some way

It used to before I knew how to balance everything out but it can get lonely sometimes with people not understanding the behind the scenes or your vision I feel like the less you talked about it with people that don't understand it or just really don't have any knowledge about it the more you want be stressing other people opinions you just have to know what to talk about with who 

I do this really for the love of it first and foremost but I definitely go a bit harder with it for my late sister uncle and my first cousin that all passed away on me back to back due to natural causes and a tragic accident and 2 of my closest friends as well that I lost to gun violence between them 5 that's what really fuels me the most I lost my best friend Derek Brown in (2017) to gun violence the next year I lost my uncle Richard White (2018) due to an accident which resulted in him running off the road and drowning in a river my first cousin Kevin King (2018) due to cancer in his kidneys my other closest friend Ronnie Kelly (2020) to gun violence the whole house was killed accept for his mother and my sister the next year (2021) due to diabetes. After those losses along with a few more kinda put me in this mode of like I have to keep going, I have to keep grinding they were some of my biggest fans and supporters they wouldn't have wanted me to stop so I stay pressing the gas pedal  for them

The most significant lesson I've learned is you have to stay working and consistent with your drops and engaging with your fans to stay relevant and trust the process trust your vision bc only you can see it first so you have to stay with it no matter how hard it gets or how slow it gets or none of that trust the process and stay consistent
