Details:
Born into a religious family, Yung PK was exposed to church since birth. Being born a Lutheran and converting to Catholicism, he found himself having a sincere and meaningful spiritual life. Only "discovering" hip-hop at the age of 10, he had some catching up to do. He fully immersed himself in the history of the music and the culture, all the way back to the days of KRS-One and Run-DMC to today's classics. He found himself buying any hip-hop CD he could get his hands on and memorizing the CD itself. Yung PK came from a cultured background (not meaning a wealthy background). His mother being from England and his father being from Chicago believed they had to show their son all the world had to offer. Being blessed to have the chance to see the world (Paris, Belgium, London) and having a family of various religions and ethnicities, he found himself with a wider worldview than others. Admiring today's rappers in the game (Kanye West, Lil Wayne, T.I.) he still felt he had a message to give, even in a possibly more positive way than the mainstream. He started off making hip-hop beats at his house and then turned to writing lyrics to his beats as a hobby yet he was still very passionate about it. He only did it for fun as a thing to share with his friend but it wasn't until he met Producer Jay Kim of Key Em Up Productions, that his music truly began to take shape. He worked hard to complete his first solo album, The Positive Returns. He saw it as a way to not only show the world his talents but also the talents of others he knew and for that reason he featured some very talented people on the album. Paige DeChausse, Will Tinner, Matthew McCague, Gil Gutierrez, DeAngelo Brandon, and Dave Smith all played parts in making the album what it is. His debut CD, The Positive Returns, is currently available. Yung PK hopes to spread his message to those who are looking for something more than lyrics about drugs and violence. The man with the positive message has arrived!
