iKenj

iKENJ (AHY-kenj) is a recording artist, music producer, songwriter, and designer based out of Philadelphia, PA. Through talent and originality he is out to make a name for himself, and in a short time iKenj has left a footprint in the cyber world musically and creatively. iKenj was introduced to the keyboard at age three and by sixteen he was producing his own music. His craft soon developed into songwriting in 2001, and in 2008 he began to record. Around this time he also began to create web pages and graphic designs for other local artists and businesses.

Residing in the Tri-State area, iKenj has been able to create a fan base that spreads all the way to the west coast, and even as far as the Netherlands. This blossoming artist has successfully rose and maintained a place as one of MySpace’s top ten lyrical artists in the state of Pennsylvania. Networking via MySpace and through other artist networks has allowed him to connect with many notable independent artists and producers for musical collaborations. These connections have also led to live club performances and appearances on radio broadcasts.

His music is influenced by both R&B and Hip Hop genres, and his unique style of rap is produced using lyriphysics or “a complex wordplay” that creates a style all his own.

The young, smart, and eager artist is dedicated to bringing change. iKenj represents a fresh approach to art and music, and the iKenj & MakeSure Entertainment movement is one that is spreading quickly.
