Young Kob
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.Band/artist history
Began emceeing at age 11 with the group Strangaz which later became J-Tee & Kobi. Went solo and honed his skill through the Minneapolis High School battle circuit. Signed on with Ill Concept Records in July 2003. Released "Kobi Mixtape Vol's 1 and 2" in 2003 and Early 2004. Met up with M Eazy and Marcus Ferguson and created landmark mixtape "Ethinomicks" in February 2005. Was picked up by Real Explicit Music in June of 2005.Have you performed in front of an audience?I play wherever there's an opportunity. It's the single greatest piece of any music, the thrill of performing live.

Hey whatsup, this is beacon from Rapskallion records, asking you to check my new track, “Days and Nights”. I’m not gonna waste your time BSing like so many other people are doing lately. Straight up, if you listen to my song “Days and Nights” and leave me a message on the message board letting me know that you actually listened to my song, (don’t just say “you gotta nice flow, check out my tracks” I’m not stupid enough to fall for that) I will listen to your whatever song you want me to and leave you a message with honest, real feedback. Song plays and actual feedback sounds like a pretty good exchange to me. So, if you’re interested, check out my site and listen to the song “Days and Nights” and if you leave me feedback letting me know you did, I will do the same for you. One Love, beacon.
