Hailing from East London, the indelible Kojo Funds early come up saw him rub shoulders with some of the greatest UK lyricists and pop sensations. From Kano to Yxng Bane, Mabel and Raye, Kojo was quickly recognised as a household name as his unique Afro Swing sound permeated the air waves. His 2018 album, Golden Boy, marked the sound of the Summer featuring more than a few classics. With 'Warning', 'Dun Talkin' and 'Stallin' as certified crowd bangers, Kojo's tracks are guaranteed to inject high energy into any event - even 5 years on.

With a keen eye for hot collaborations, his prolific songwriting has seen him achieve 2x Platinum and Gold records on multiple tracks with Mabel, Raye and Yxng Bane, even scooping an ASCAP award for his writing on Davido's track 'Fall'. International ventures are not amiss either, with music lovers going crazy when Kojo dropped his collab with Wizkid, 'I Like'.

Kojo Funds is regarded as The Godfather of Afro Swing. He popularised the sound and took it further afield, with performances at Bestival, Wireless and BBC One's Sounds Like Friday Night.
