KUDOS
Kudos was born and raised on the Sunshine coast of Australia, with a close, inspirational family background (Father: magician/novelist Mother: interior designer/studio owner Brother: fruit world renegade/fellow mc; Babek) he was quick to register with the expressive arts. Emceeing since he was twelve, the art of writing, rapping, poetry and performance has been a fundamental part of Kudo’s upbringing and development among the ages. Now that he has graduated into the wilderness the goal has been set, each day here forth is a day of progression, striving for an honesty only dreamt of in previous moments.
‘Im drunk on thought, manifesting verdicts in an open court.
Hoping soars close before they open more.
Hoping for a happy end, thinking that I’ve had my fun, it’s over for me.
Time and time again my thinking opens doors.’
