<p>Kevin Joseph, aka Kjo, is a student of architecture at M S Ramaiah School Of Architecture. He is also a rapper. About three years ago, he started making music of his own. "I was making beats in my bedroom and I realised that I needed someone to rap to these beats. I decided to give it a shot myself. I has been a year since I started," he explains.</p>.<p>With the intention of representing the city, he has been working on the EP 'B-Town Bizz'. "It is about the city and its people. Most of my rap uses the slang and the lingo that is popular here," he says. </p>.<p>Managing college and a career in music is no easy feat, but that does not deter Kevin. "I write most of my songs in college. I find time in classes or in between. If it is good, I will go and record them afterwards. I found a studio nearby so I don't waste time," he shares. </p>.<p>His aim is to create a collective, or a crew of musicians, he says. "I feel everyone is just copying each other. So, I want all the artistes who are original to come together," he says. </p>.<p>His sound is that of the people of this city. He finds his inspiration from Drake, Lil' Wayne and other western rappers. "Nobody from the city influences me. I am creating my own wave of music. Bengaluru is such a crazy city, and it has such an amazing vibe. I want to put that on the world map. People out there should have access to our culture," he explains. </p>
