Meet K. Bo24

We were lucky to catch up with K. Bo24 recently and have shared our conversation below.

K., we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?

Growing up, my father had many short, rememberable sayings that always stuck with me. One of the things he would say is, “Small things to a giant.” Meaning no matter how tall the obstacle ahead is, you’re bigger than that, & can overcome it.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

What makes my music stand out is its authenticity. I never rap about anything I haven’t seen, heard, or lived through. Nothing in my lyrics is fabricated—if it doesn’t sit right with my soul, it doesn’t make it into a verse. That honesty might mean I go quiet sometimes, but that’s just me out living life and gathering real inspiration.

I also focus heavily on flow—that’s what I believe gives my music its unique sound and replay value. I treat every beat like a canvas, letting the rhythm guide how I express my truth.

Right now, I’m excited about my upcoming releases. M.I.A. is out now and over 500 streams in the first week, followed by Sport Button on May 16th, just two days before my birthday. To top it off, I’ve got a bonus single dropping on the last Friday of the month—stay tuned for that one.

Outside of the music itself, I’m working on integrating a Shopify store with my Spotify and preparing to launch new merch, so there’s a lot to look forward to.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

For me, my discipline, determination, & resilience were the most important qualities on my journey.

I’ve been through more than most, from looking down the barrel of a gun to surviving a motorcycle accident on the highway, but these qualities helped carry me through. And truthfully, life will test all of us at some point, so these are skills anyone can benefit from.

My advice would be to train your body and the mind will follow. Build a regimen, stick to it, and stay consistent. Over time, you’ll naturally develop discipline, witness your own determination, and build resilience along the way.

Okay, so before we go, is there anyone you’d like to shoutout for the role they’ve played in helping you develop the essential skills or overcome challenges along the way?

I’ve done a lot of research on my own that’s helped me get to this point, but someone who played a big role in my growth was my producer, Aaron Flores at Audio Fidelity.

I could always count on him to bring my ideas to life, and I learned a lot from him that’s shaped me as an independent artist. His knowledge and ear definitely helped sharpen mine.

If you’re in or around downtown Toledo, stop by Audio Fidelity on N. Superior Street and tell him K. Bo24 sent you.
