Hailing from Long Island but now a resident of the San Fernando Valley, rapper and producer KawaiiSteez champions self-belief, dream-chasing and a damn good song. With Alternative Hip Hop, Experimental Hip Hop, Abstract Hip Hop, and Escape Room as their canvas, KawaiiSteez’s tongue-in-cheek flow, intricate rhyme schemes, high-energy performance, and crystalline artistic vision may be reminiscent of artists like MF DOOM, JPEGMAFIA and Toro y Moi — But KawaiiSteez packs a sonic punch all their own. KawaiiSteez combines the traditional sound of New York Hip Hop and the experimental soundscape of Los Angeles, drawing from a wide array of genres that complement the leftist themes that find way into the music. Existing as a black individual in America is an experience the artist can’t help but bring forth to their discography, as they’ve been outcast and beared witness to inequities coast-to-coast. Above all else, KawaiiSteez’s passion for revolutionary and experimental sound shines through in every project they put out. KawaiiSteez doesn’t only work solo, their EPs “Party Select!” and “BackFlip!” include dynamic features from JuseMC, Matt Hatt, Frank Vapor, Knew Confusion, Mailbox Spiders, moisturizedkev, and Trent De La Cruz, all who match KawaiiSteez’s affinity for thought-provoking lyrics and infectious grooves. Stick around and gear up for a dynamic amalgamation of Funk, Vaporwave, Electronic, and Dance genres, interwoven with the timeless traditions of Hip Hop.
