THE RECORD

IN HIS WORDS

The block taught me tempo before any studio did.
Old mind, new noise. Same truth, turned up.
I don't chase the wave. I tune it.

FRAMES

THE STORY

Kario Voss makes West Coast TrapRock: hard 808s under raw rock guitar, melodic hip-hop and alternative R&B in the hooks, a little country-blues in the bones. Street-rooted, and not boxed in by any one genre.

Young with an old soul. He brings a calm, disciplined presence to songs about ambition, loyalty, relationships, betrayal, self-control and growth, and he tells them straight.

Kario is an AI-born artist, written, produced and directed by A Squared in San Diego. The voice is synthetic. The point of view isn't. Black Denim Lessons is where it starts.
