Hailing from Connecticut, Kenny Beats is here to put on for all the producers in the rap game. The 27-year-old started in hip-hop before transitioning to EDM as DJ Loudpvck. Now, he is reunited with his first true love.

Speaking on how he got his producer tag from Atlanta’s own KEY!, Kenny states,

“I told Key to give me a tag and he just roasted me. He didn’t want to do it. He went in the booth and started just saying all this funny stuff. ‘Twisted metal shit man! Fatmankey, Kenny Beats!’ I didn’t like any of it and the second to last thing he said was ‘WHOA KENNY!’ It’s weird ’cause the rest of him is him just roasting me, making fun of me and laughing, and then the ‘WHOA KENNY’ just sounds perfect! It’s like from God. It just sounded like that moment needed to happen.”

Watch below as he brings us back to studio sessions w/ ALLBLACK, Rico Nasty, Key!, Freddie Gibbs, 03 Greedo, Ski Mask The Slump God, NBA Youngboy, and the breakdown below.
