Konkreet Poncho was born on March 25th and is up and coming artist out of Broward County Florida. He grew up in the mean streets of Lauderhill Florida and there are only two ways you can go, the right way and the wrong way. It was his love for basketball which kept Konkreet Poncho out of the streets. He always had a passion for music, he just never had the thought of doing it until 2012 when his little brother started a label called “Elevated Muzik Group Label”. He never got into the studio or recorded a song until 2017. Since then, Konkreet Poncho has been developing his craft and honing in on his skills at a fast pace.
Konkreet Poncho released his single titled “Profit” and this laid-back record was a smooth-sailing trap rap produced hit that could be added right in with our lyrically driven playlists. Konkreet Poncho rapid delivery was fire! His raw lyricism had truth and honesty behind it. Instead of rapping about things that don’t quite matter, he adds a substantial approach to “Profit”. Konkreet Poncho reminds me of the true underground of hip-hop. These rappers are usually bonafide and authentic, with a significant amount of passion and drive for success. Konkreet Poncho could easily appeal to a market of fans who comes from the same background story as him, while also being digestible enough to reach a mainstream audience. “Profit” is a mellow-down, cool record that still displays enough energy despite the lack of aggression. Konkreet Poncho is undeniably a talented rapper on his way to the top!
