Nkosi Bourne

A conscious rapper with the melodic skills needed to reach a mainstream audience, Nkosi Bourne blends the sounds of classic hip-hop with his Afro-Caribbean heritage to create a powerful, emotional style. The Brooklyn-based rapper has been honing his craft in private for years, but now he is ready to emerge onto the scene and make his presence felt. Nkosi first started rapping after an injury confined him to bed for months. With no other way of expressing himself, he started writing rhymes to pass the time. When he was back on his feet again, he continued rapping, and with the encouragement of a few key family members, he began to take it seriously. Soon enough, he had a huge catalog of songs, chronicling everything from his difficult upbringing to the world's troubles.
