K.O on returning to his Skhanda Republic series

Coming back to the series with this one, it’s just me cementing my legacy as an MC, as a producer, as an entrepreneur, and just as a curator of culture. What people can actually expect to hear from this album is not me trying to relive a past moment, trying to conquer a hill that I’ve already conquered in the form of my previous work. This is just now me giving you a 2022 version of the gentleman that I am, the man that I am, the musician, the executive, and now the fashion designer and all kinds of things, all in one part.

K.O on settling into his role in life

I think this is more growth and maturity, and one has actually settled into his role. My role is not only just trying to wow people with my raps, but just be more of a leader and being a voice, a curator and an engineer of culture as a whole. I am hitting you with what I do in the fashion space, I am hitting you with what I do as an executive, what I do as an entrepreneur and of course what I do as an MC, but you know for the most part I just want to showcase my maturity and my evolution as a man.

K.O on showing resilience for the next generation

Those that are watching, those that are coming up behind me, I want to make sure that they remain resilient and remain focused on their journey because whatever you do in life, you are not on no man’s time, but God’s. As long as God hasn’t closed the window upon anything that you do, just keep going and block out the noise. The neighbours will have something to say, the people on socials will have something to say, but as long as you know your purpose and you know your path, just stay on it. That’s the main takeaway on this album that I’m trying to showcase.
