BIOGRAPHY

Like lots of other ’90s kids, KwakuBS grew up watching MTV. While initially, he would’ve preferred to watch his cartoons, his sisters and father passed on their love of music, and he found interest in the performers he saw and fell in love with the craft. Still, he didn’t begin dabbling in recording until his high school senior took him to the studio and the rest is history.

The La Member easily switches between English, Twi, Patois, and Pidgin in his lyrics. He recently said, “I’m vocal in my local language because I’m about finding a bridge where I can link my listeners together. So whichever languages I can incorporate into my craft to bring in listeners from all walks of life., I like to take advantage of that.” He does more than just link people together through his use of language. His versatility is also quite apparent in his sound and fashion.
