Kalvin "theKD" Owens

As a kid who grew up on the soulful sounds of Luther Vandross and Marvin Gaye, theKD effortlessly delivers introspective lyrics atop melodic production. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Childish Gambino, Juice WRLD, and Denzel Curry, the Cleveland native uses clever rhyme schemes, and creative wordplay to bring melancholy subject matters to life. A true jack of all trades, theKD not only pens his lyrics, but also engineers all of his music. Armed with an aggressive flow with melodic undertones, it is no wonder he's known as the "Energetic Sadboy."
