K.Koke ft. Wale
Roc For Life

Roc Nation/Sony RCA

WE SAY

The heat on London-based rapper K.Koke is reaching epic proportions in the UK and is now spreading Stateside, leading to a deal with Jay-Z’s label Roc Nation. The 27-year-old is the first British rapper to sign to the music mogul’s label. Roc For Life is the first track available from his debut album I Ain’t Perfect, which is due for release in January 2013. Featuring US rapper Wale, this is a great introduction to K.Koke. His autobiographical lyrics track his journey from the rough streets of NW London, where he was involved with drugs and acquitted of murder last year, to the dream he is following of becoming a global superstar. K.Koke looks the real deal and with anticipation building on a daily basis, views across his YouTube channel have reached 15 million and are growing daily. Video.
