Kristofer Murray

Kristofer Murray began his career as a rap artist under the guidance of multi-GRAMMY award winning producers Dre & Vidal (Usher, Chris Brown, Jill Scott). The Philadelphia native later realized he had the knack to write songs for other artists and switched his focus to songwriting (R&B, Pop, Rap) and in 2013 co-wrote “Burn Out” off of TGT’s album titled Three Kings . He later co-wrote “You Mean That Much To Me” off of Chrisette Michele’s album titled Better. Both albums were nominated for the Best R&B Album of the Year at the 2013 GRAMMYs. In 2016, he landed a placement called “Westside” on Ty Dolla $ign’s Free T.C. Deluxe album and “Bombs Away” on MTV Israel featured artist ADI, in 2017. In 2019, Kris landed two placements: one on Julian King’s Made In China album (“I Care) and one on Spade-O and Ab-Liva’s Glory album ("The Life”). His most recent placement came in 2020 on Spade-O’s EP Hall of Fame Flow Vol. 1 where he wrote the hook on “Highlights”.

In addition to those artists, Kristofer has also written & collaborated with and for artists such as Ingrid (signed to Beyonce), Sevyn Streeter, Trey Songz, Cassie, Raheem Devaughn, Keri Hilson, Sebastian Mikael and Estelle.
