Kweku Collins is a rapper from Evanston, Illinois. Exposed to music throughout his life by his father, an African and Latin percussionist and storyteller, Collins began to put out self-produced mixtapes in his sophomore year of high school. After emailing his EP Worlds Away to independent hip hop label Closed Sessions in early 2015, Collins was invited to record with them; Closed Sessions signed him soon after. His 2015 EP Say It Here, While It’s Safe made waves upon its release, and his first full-length album Nat Love, released on April 8, 2016, ought to heighten his visibility.
