Kenneth Charles Blume III (born May 10, 1991), known professionally as Kenny Beats, has cemented a place for himself amongst rap’s elite producers thanks to his hard-hitting 808’s and a knack for catchy melodies and samples that are often off the beaten path.

Kenny has released collaborative projects with Denzel Curry, KEY!, ALLBLACK, Q Da Fool, and Rico Nasty as well as produced massive hits like 10k.Caash’s “Aloha” and Ski Mask the Slump God’s “Foot Fungus.” He’s also created his own show The Cave, which features artists freestyling over beats he creates in less than 15 minutes. One episode of The Cave spawned comedian Zack Fox’s viral hit “Jesus is the One (I Got Depression).”

Before fully committing to being a rap producer, Kenny was part of the EDM duo LOUDPVCK with Ryan Marks. Despite its success, the LOUDPVCK name was retired in 2018, with Kenny returning to his true calling in hip-hop music.
