King Kun, born Dejuan Davis, to a single mother “Laverne Davis”, grew up in one of Atlanta’s most notorious neighborhoods called The Bluff located in Vine City on Atlanta's West side. This neighborhood is known for it's drugs, prostitution, and crime. Growing up in that environment, you either end up dead, or in prison. KING decided to follow his passion.
Being born into a musical family naturally gave him his love for music, which he calls his love affair. Since the age of 12, he followed the footsteps of one musical Uncle who was an aspiring pianist, another who plays guitar, and a close family friend who plays the saxophone. When Kun bought his first drum machine, he began producing music for a group he formed called THE HAVEKNOTZ. King Kun and the HaveKnotz performed together in MC battles and showcases all around Atlanta.
Known as a triple threat in the industry King Kun is a producer, songwriter, and artist. He often compares himself to being a classical composer of hip-hop ; A unique person that makes unique music. Today King Kun is recognized as one of Atlanta’s hottest artists and super producers, and most importantly, a true lyricist. King Kun is going to be the name of the nation sooner than you think. He uses a famous quote by James Dean which inspires him every day. “Dream as if you’ll live forever, Live as if you’ll die today”. He lives by that quote to keep accomplishing his dream.
Everything King Kun has been through, he kept fighting, no matter what. He is who he is today because of his strong belief in GOD, and the passion for his love of music. The only thing King Kun has to say is
“Watch me keep climbing, and I’ll see you at the top..... Or from it!"
