While spending most of his life growing up by the shore of south New Jersey, hip-hop artist KiERAN was more interested in the gritty aesthetic of 1990’s east coast/G-funk era rap albums instead of spending time at the beaches in the summer (which makes sense considering his pale ginger complexion). A lot of KiERAN’s music is locked and loaded with skits, clever bars and witty entendres, while also attempting to toe the line of the contemporary hip-hop song.
