"Success is Planned, Achievements are Worked for, Miracles are Made"
“Growing up I always had the notion that success was something people dreamt of but that nobody ever seemed to really achieve. It felt almost beyond the grasp of an ordinary human being; so much so that it seems ‘a miracle’ to have achieved anything in life. Especially when coming from an impoverished background...”
We present to you: 24-year old Deptford-bred rapper AKS.
One third of the Midas Touch collective alongside self-assured fellow rapper Phoenix and shrewd rapper/singer J. Tha eXodus, AKS is a young artist built on introspective reflections memorable lyrics with a earnest and commanding tone. A strong stage presence and a commanding voice with a diverse flow are the impressive tools with which AKS exhibits his talented skill for writing lyrics. He spits deeply and provocatively, catching your attention from his first utterance with sincere and impassioned delivery, attention-catching murmurs and earnest words.
AKS’ debut promo mixtape "A Miracle In The Making" was released spring 2009 forFREE DOWNLOAD and saw AKS injecting his distinctive charm into the likes of Lily Allen’s “The Fear,” Brit-soul star Tawiah’s “Every Step,” 88-Keys frisky Viagra anthem “Stay Up” and Glaswegian beat master Hudson Mohawke’s underground anthem-in-waiting, “Overnight.” A Miracle In The Making also features production work from UK talents Nutty P, Red Skull, Jesse P. and Chemo.
"A miracle in the making" was me dipping my toe in the water knowing full well that be it cold or lukewarm I was still gonna take a run up and dive in the pool.”
Commenting on the mixtape’s versatile selection of hip hop, soul, pop, grime and bass-heavy beats, AKS says, “In a way I feel as though I blindfolded myself, felt around the scene and my own catalogue a little and picked out a couple oddly shaped objects thinking I could build something useful out of 'em. And I have.”
“During the last couple of years I’ve learnt that success is planned, achievements are worked for and ‘Miracles’ are made. However big or small I become, I’m making my dream a reality in the hope that by seeing me do it other people will do the same for theirs.
Nothing More…Nothing Less!”
Definitely one to watch in 2010.
