Minneapolis has a new voice in hip-hop. Known for it's thriving "backpack hip-hop" scene, there is a void for an entertaining, fun having, east coast style emcee. With a cocky swagger, Kob admits he's "what would happen if Lloyd Banks and Fabolous were white". Always an entertainer, most of his songs are club songs, and other radio friendly joints. Recently, Kob signed on with local hip-hop legend Tommy Real (of Young & Da Restless), with his Real Explicit Music team. After hitting the mixtape circuit, Young Kob is hitting the scene this winter with his debut album "Formal Introduction", with guests appearences by D.C., Artofact, Tommy Real and Face Off. Also in the future, the remix to Houston rapper Lil' Rob's hit single "Summer Nights" will feature a 16 from Minneapolis' sexiest voice, to be heard later this fall.
