UK rap legends Krept & Konan have dropped their highly anticipated fourth studio album, "Young Kingz II", alongside a music video for their focus track "Kilimanjaro" featuring Nigerian star Oxlade. The album is a follow-up to their iconic 2013 mixtape "Young Kingz".
Recorded primarily in Jamaica to honor their heritage, "Young Kingz II" is a deeply introspective project that chronicles the highs and lows of Krept & Konan’s journey. With themes of PTSD, therapy, fatherhood, grief, loss, and systemic injustice, the album showcases their most personal work to date. It also highlights their commitment to staying true to their roots while embracing growth.
The album features an impressive lineup of collaborators, including Jamaican icons Popcaan and Sizzla, UK rap stars Chip, Potter Payper, Ghetts, Youngs Teflon, and actors Michael Ward and Damson Idris. It also honors Konan’s late father, reggae legend Delroy Wilson, with a poignant sample.
"Young Kingz II" blends Afrobeats, Dancehall, Grime, and Hip Hop, positioning Krept & Konan as trailblazers in UK rap. Following the success of their previous projects, including "Revenge Is Sweet" and "7 DAYS & 7 NIGHTS", this album solidifies their place as pioneers in the UK music scene.
With "Young Kingz II", Krept & Konan continue to set new benchmarks in British music, proving that their journey is far from over.
