Being offered today is some fresh live hip-hop talent from Tokyo that goes by the name of K.A.N.T.A. As a son of well-known producer/DJ K.U.D.O (Major Force/Mo’Wax), he was early exposed to a range of different sounds that encompass music by Todd Rungren, The Beatles, David Bowie as well as old school hip-hop, disco and soul music. K.A.N.T.A intends to fuse these different genres into his very art, labeling it “Classic Rock / Beatles infused high-end HipHop.” Above you can check out the official video to his new single “Love Child” featuring Leo Imai. If you like what you hear and see, then be on the lookout for his album, due out this September.
