News update

KVBeats Soundcloud 


What up y'all. I recently became a father to a beautiful little girl, which has taken up a lot of my beatmaking time. I have still managed to cook up a few new instrumentals you are welcome to check out.

Also, the work on my upcoming EP is almost done. It will contain songs feat. Torae, Little Vic, Pace Won, Chaundon and Negash Ali. You can check one of the songs on my Soundcloud page.

Werner von Wallenrod reviews the album

Werner von Wallenrod's Humble, Little Hip-Hop Blog: KVBlue: "...And I can start out with some welcome news: KV is a good producer. Because, it doesn't matter how good his line-up is if he can't hold up his end. He could have the greatest rappers in the world, but nobody's gonna spin the album a second time if they're stuck rhyming over some cheap, electronic bullshit. But, no. Fortunately, KV's pretty nice with his."

My vinyl LP just dropped!

Ain't a lot of things better than getting your own music pressed on a piece of (blue) wax!

Finally my album KVBeats "The Résumé" is out on vinyl (300 copies) as well as the digital formats (through Soulspazm Records on iTunes, Napster, Amazon, Emusic etc.) So far the record can be ordered in Germany, Japan and USA. For those living in/visiting Denmark, Norway or Sweden you are welcome to hit me on my email [konvee at gmail dot com] and order your copy today.

It's been 3 years of making beats, networking with rappers, mixing, arranging, mastering, politicking with labels and distributors etc. a long winding road to get to this point, but it feels priceless having my baby on vinyl after all this work!

Check the updates on www.twitter.com/kvbeats and let me know if you want to mention the album on your site/blog and I'll send you a download code.

We're shooting a video for the song "I'm Serious" next week in New York. Shout to my man D.V. Alias Khryst for coming through with that.

"Ambitions Of A Writer" Mp3


This is the one beat I've had most emcees want to rhyme over when playing it for people. Chaundon took it to the next level with the story of how he came into the rap game on some battling shit. We did 3 songs together, 2 of which will be featured on my album. "Ambitions Of A Writer" is the third album leak so far and is featured on the new cover CD of Germany's biggest selling hiphop magazine Juice.
