Its Monday again and now is our time to go over the “weekend weak ends”. Those MC’s who were strong and those others that are weak. This time we went to “Bmore” Maryland to check out this new artist known as K Little. Khalil is born and raised in Baltimore and has developed a style that is young and engaging artist with a vivacious personality that is attractive to many. K.little recently began his career in 2009 and his skills are quickly accelerating up to the current day level. The piece we saw him perform is an original piece titled, “mY hip hop generation”.

The piece is posted below and has a lot of good aspects. The first thing that is noticed is the artist’s energy. He is an emotional rapper who uses that to his full advantage. Engaging the minds of his audience and holding their attention is a natural skill for K.Little and is an important skill for all artists. The topics he speaks on are true from his life, thought provoking and somewhat eye opening. Previous pieces like, “Intro” and “2nd strike” go along with this artists style. This can be seen as a good and bad thing. His dedicated fans of the future will love that he is always doing his serious pieces. But, it will be hard for Little to branch out and reach a new audience if he wants to impact the world in the way we know he can.

K.Little also speaks well but it is seen in his swagger that he is still true to his origin. This kid will be able to connect to everyone.

However, like also issues of “weekend weak ends”, we gotta find the weak points and exploit them. After all, he isn’t famous for a reason.

NERVES OF STEAL! Is NOT what K.Little has. Off the stage he is a witty and funny guy who can flirt his way out of any situation. But in the light, his stage presence is not as secure. In the beginning of the performance it is almost as though we can hear him screaming,”WHERE DO I PUT MY HANDS!?”

Because this piece is serious, it is understood that he does not move around a lot. But to engage future listeners this artist will need to have a little more fun with his pieces.

The talent is there and the nerves will fade as he continues his career.

Thank you K.Little for adding another aspect to the game and proving that hip hop IS in fact still alive.
