Born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio, K@n5eR moved to North Carolina with his mother and little brother. Throughout his childhood, K@n5eR watched many of his close family members suffer and even die due to cancer.

The artist’s mother has managed to beat cancer and has been his greatest inspiration so far. Her confidence and courage in battling the disease is one of K@n5eR’s greatest strengths and continues to give him purpose to exploit his talent.
Since childhood, K@n5eR has always been passionate about music, but his dreams of becoming a rapper, felt an immense setback. While living in North Carolina, K@n5eR made some bad decisions and ended up imprisoned. His ambitions came to a sudden halt, but nothing could deter K@n5eR from his passion. In the prison, K@n5eR listened to different rappers and read about their stories. He started by following every rapper he could hear of to learn more about their brand and how they turned it into a business.
Later, K@n5eR moved to Florida and started making progress in his career. Although it has been a roller coaster ride for him with bad decisions, K@n5eR lived through all those challenges to pursue his goal of becoming a rapper. Now he has an entire team of artists, producers, managers, A&R’s, stylists, designers, financial advisors, all working on building his brand. YBE K@n5eR got the nickname Dr1pGodd because of his refined sense of fashion, style, combining colors, sparkling jewelry and video aesthetics. K@n5eR’s team shares his vision and makes every effort to build his brand into a successful business.
K@n5eR is still focused on learning because he believes nothing can reach perfection in art. He is also focusing on expanding his network in the industry before making any considerable investment in his business. He is working on his upcoming album “WelXome2Dr1p” under his label “Gr1ndMobb.” He also owns a marketing company and has an upcoming CBD line in partnership with Taylor Mears.
