Wyoming-based emcee King BÉ recently released his new album nine-track album ETERNAL
King BÉ began producing music years ago out of sheer passion, initially writing lyrics without access to equipment. Transitioning to recording over beats crafted by friends using a modest microphone, he soon invested in his own software and microphones, driven by a burgeoning love for music production. Despite early struggles with beat-making, King BÉ’s dedication led him to explore and refine his skills, eventually recording an entire album to chronicle his life experiences. His path took a pivotal turn when a friend introduced him to Full Sail University’s music production program.
Juggling full-time work and rigorous coursework, King BÉ successfully graduated with a bachelor’s degree, though his album project faced delays. With support from a mentor and fellow artist, he eventually completed the album, marking a significant achievement in his career. King BÉ’s musical style spans lyrical rap to melodic flows, reflecting his diverse influences and aspirations to explore new genres. As a student of music, he continually experiments with both vintage and contemporary sounds in his production and recording techniques.
The name King BÉ pays homage to his favorite artists and resonates as a testament to his journey in music. His notable moments include performing as a drummer during his school years and creating original compositions across various styles during college. A highlight was his audition for the Warner Brother Discovery Music Library, where his work was praised as standout, affirming his potential as both an artist and producer. With an evolving artistic vision and a commitment to musical exploration, King BÉ looks forward to expanding his creative horizons and leaving a lasting mark in the music industry.
‘Eternal‘, is the new nine-track album from King BÉ which emerged from a profound period of adversity and personal growth. Inspired by navigating wrongful arrest and subsequent homelessness, the album delves into themes of resilience, survival, and personal evolution. Beyond hardships, ‘Eternal’ also features songs infused with nostalgia and humor, reflecting King BE’s multifaceted approach to storytelling. Originally conceived two years ago during a time when his musical abilities were still developing, the album underwent rigorous refinement and collaboration with acclaimed artist and producer Omyügen for vocal recording and mixing. Recognized for its artistic merit, the Wyoming Arts Council extended a grant to support the project. With ‘Eternal’, King BÉ aims to inspire disenfranchised Hispanics and young individuals facing life’s challenges, offering them hope and motivation to thrive against all odds.
