Roy Williams, known by his stage name KO-P, is a 20 year old Bronx native. Following in his uncle’s footsteps, whom he idolized, KO-P began persuing his dreams of becoming a rapper at the early age of 7. For the four years that followed, KO-P engaged in several freestyles with his close relatives in order to prepare for the day that he would feel good enough to perform in front of his greatest inspirer; his uncle. That day never came. At the age of 11, KO-P’s uncle was murdered, and wasn’t given the chance to see his nephew perform. To this day, KO-P’s uncle remains his greatest influence. Taking the tragedy and unfulfilled promises surrounding his uncle’s death, KO-P has decided to never again hide his talents–striving towards the goal of letting the world see what he is made of.
Here is his second music video for his single off of his “R.O.Y.” EP entitled “East Coastin” Produced by Bitoy Beatz:
