ARTISTS TO WATCH: K Dot G

Halifax represents, thanks to 19-year-old K Dot G
I found this track thanks to a post at Nation of Hip-Hop, and couldn’t help but want to spread the word about K Dot G. The 19-year-old rapper from Halifax, Nova Scotia, definitely has a flow reminiscent of early 2Pac, and though the lyrics belie his age, the hook itself is easily enough to keep this song playing on repeat. “Alright” is a solid introduction to an up-and-comer who has a great deal of potential. I’ll be interested to see where K Dot G takes things now that his EP Blood, Sweat & Tears has gotten him noticed.

I don’t know why I seem to expect Canadian musicians (and Australians, for that matter!) to sound like where they come from… It must be all of these cockney singers right now with their exaggerated accents!
