Kembe X is as Chicago as it gets. The 21-year-old rap phenom once said, “all of my memories are at the crib in South Holland and my grandmother’s crib on the Westside.” This midwesterner has been called a rap prodigy, as his entrance into the game came at an early age of 17. Attention from major outlets including Scion A/V, of whom released his debut Kembe X EP, might be due to the fact that he isn’t doing the typical Chicago rap. His music strays away from the aggressive drill music that some of the others around him are creating. Kembe takes a smoother, melodic, and groove-oriented approach, and it certainly has done wonders for him. Still brewing buzz from his EP, Kembe X, along with frequent collaborator Alex Wiley, takes his talents to Miami for Rolling Loud Festival on Saturday February 28th.
