KC

KC is part of the music/art collective SMIB WORLDWIDE, which he co-founded with Ray and GRGY. From the start, he has been part of the collective that grew into a creative platform. It all began with Bummy Boys 1, a record on which he worked closely with artists such as GRGY and Ray Fuego. On this record, he produced the music and contributed vocally. This grew into a true trilogy with Bummy Boys 3 released in 2019.

Within the label, he is still one of the main producers providing the sound SMIB is known for. These signature productions can be heard on various projects such as: Bakuhatsu, Smibtape, M53, ANTIFU, Van Kees Los, Project YG and ZWART. The latter, ZWART, is a project by Ray Fuego, of which KC produced the majority and was awarded ‘album of the year 2018’ by 3voor12.
