Keith Ape is a rapper from South Korean rap label Hi-Lite Records and hip-hop collective The Cohort.
You may have heard of Keith Apes track, “IT G MA” featuring JayAllDay, Loota, Okasian, and Kohh. The track and official video became a global viral sensation and Keith quickly gained the attention of key tastemakers in the United States and beyond. Within a few months, the official video had over 12 million views and musicians from around the world were reaching out to Keith to collaborate.
Keith then put together a remix version of “IT G MA” in what Complex called a “groundbreaking moment in convergence culture, in which a kid from Seoul crosses continents to link up with homies from Atlanta, L.A., and Harlem, all in the name of hip-hop.” The remix features verses from A$AP Ferg, Waka Flocka Flame, Dumbfoundead, and Father and it released on OWSLA (a subsidiary of the Warner Music Group), the label curated by the electronic music producer & DJ, Skrillex.
With a number of successful releases under his belt, Keith is poised to continue on the path of his meteoric rise and we are excited to bring him to the Middle Kingdom this November for two shows!
