Kenyan Hip Hop Heads
New Lister
ACE THA DON
Born : 28th November 1991
Hometown : Nairobi, Kenya
Genre : Hip hop/ Rap
The first word of his name 'Ace' is an acronym for Arcane Chronic and Explosive, which he says are the words that define him as an artist.
He wrote his first verse when at 13 years and before that he had a rhyme book, he'd fill with Eminem's lyrics. You can guess what he was preparing for.
He started out his music career in 2011 after being introduced to Ganji records by Xtatic, one of the top female emcees. She also introduced him to Khaligraph Jones who helped him to get into the music career. As you know real recognises real.
His first album was "Birth Of The Best" that marked the entry into the Kenyan music industry.
Ace released successful solo projects like "Banana" in 2017 followed by "Clap For Me" in 2018. Other solo projects are: War Ready, Out Here, Bar'd Up #1, Hold Up, Mine and many more. He later released "Bar'd Up #2" which left every hip hop head yearning for more.
Being a top tie lyricist, Ace secured many collaborations. He featured Shukid & Sydney on "Night Life", he has been featured in many radio & TV interview freestyles just to mention a few. We hope he got paid for those.
Ace Tha Don & Kevin Grands are featured on "Behind The Wall" A project by Nu Wave Africa.
Big up Ace. Keep the flag high.
All eyes on you.#kenyanhiphopheads
