Kilo Angeleno

Kilo, who sings in both English and Spanish, is an Ecuadorian-American singer, songwriter, and entertainer. Born in Los Angeles, Kilo was raised partly in Guayaquil, Ecuador. A natural-born talent, at 8 years old Kilo would begin singing latin romantic ballads in restaurants and cantinas; where he developed his impassioned tone and gentle tenor. He immersed himself in his parents’ vast music collection, which comprised of Julio Jaramillo, Daniel Santos, Leo Dan, Jose Jose, and more. Kilo fell in love with a broad spectrum of Latin music before discovering American hip-hop and R&B in his early teens. He filled his ears with records from Nas and Drake which inspired him to begin spitting bars and even performed alongside the Wu-Tang Clan at the House of Blues on Sunset Blvd. Propelled by his unique influences, the allure of his ability to showcase his mafioso rap cadence and unhurried R&B coo while upholding the roots of classic latin music is unmatched- proving he has range as a maestro of risqué wordplay and romantic tales. With his smooth-but-rugged demeanor, Kilo is becoming an indispensable voice of seduction in modern urbano for dancers and lovers alike. His songs don’t just blend tradition and futurism, latin and global, but they carry new territory for Latin-American bilingual artists in a hybrid genre all his own.
