Kwaj

Son of Nigerian immigrants, Kwaj was born on the east coast and moved to Michigan where he was introduced to Hip-Hop at a young age. Rap battles on the bus and impromptu freestyles on college campuses set the foundation for Kwaj’s affinity to Golden Era elements of hip-hop culture. Mixing in his modern day influences Kwaj’s style can be described as a contemporary nostalgia, centered around meticulously crafted, introspective bars over jazzy, boom bap production.

His best work comes out when collaborating with fellow Foreknowledge member Hobbes Duende, and their song “Clouds in the Sky” has recently surpassed 800k streams. With a catalog featuring uplifting lyrics and authentic stories, Kwaj is an artist for fans who enjoy household names such as Kota The Friend, Joey Badass, Mick Jenkins, and Elzhi.
