Content, Delivery, and Showmanship are the three core values for Atlanta, GA emcee Señor Kaos, an emerging lyricist who’s unique approach to Hip Hop has sent him around the Globe. As an Emcee, Marketer, and Blogger, this artist’s persona and
work ethic makes it hard to disagree with his self‐proclaimed title as “Cultural
Influencer.” Señor Kaos emerges from a dissolving Hip Hop world where who you know, means more than what you do, representing what Hip Hop was and what it should be today.

With Hip Hop culture changing across the board and becoming over – saturated with the same stories of poverty, violence, and ignorance, the opportunity for a new voice to be heard is evident. “What you are all witnessing is the metamorphosis from a young hopeful to the leader of the new school. Señor Kaos is a true underground monarch.” – Performer Magazine

Kaos got his start in the music business at just 17 years old where he would sneak into local nightclub’s, and enter MC battles, open mics, etc. At 20 years old Kaos as able to finance, secure distribution and release his own record independently. “I worked a telemarketing job to finance my first project. After securing distribution for it’s release, it went on to sell 2,000 copies with no major radio play, no video, and no press. “ By the age of 22 with clever content and a great stage show, Kaos’ Music has allowed him to see crowds all over, from the U.S., Australia, and Japan. Over the years Señor Kaos has shared the stage with artists such as: Ice Cube, Rakim, Raekwon (Wu Tang), MF DOOM, Camp Lo, Slaughterhouse, Jeru The Damaja, Sean Price, Ill Bill, Krs One, Buckshot, Masta Ace, Wordsworth, Punchline, Ghostface (Wu‐Tang), Termanology, Dj Spinna, and many others.

At 27 years of age this young self ‐made businessman shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. “I have a passion for being around good music and good people, and I’m lucky enough to make a living being around both.”
