08 November 2016 - 0 Comments
Due to hot demand, the Auckland show for Seoul sensation Keith Ape has been moved to a larger venue. The MC touches down in New Zealand this week for his first-ever Kiwi gigs – playing San Fran in Wellington on Friday, November 11 and now The Studio in Auckland on Saturday, November 12.
Original press release:
Korean MC Keith Ape has
announced his first Australasian tour, with two shows in New Zealand in
November. He will play at San
Fran in Wellington on Friday,
November 11 and Neck
of the Woods on Saturday, November 12.
The Seoul sensation went viral with his smash hit It G Ma instantly putting him on the map
taking him from an underground artist to a blogosphere darling.
The tune gained so much critical acclaim that it was later remixed in a video featuring A$AP Ferg, Father, Dumbfounded and Waka Flocka. Another
collaboration arose with underground heavyweight Denzel Curry with a
track called Vigorous. He also partnered with iconic
fashion brand Converse to craft a visually arresting interactive video for his
new single, Diamonds.
Vice’s NOISEY even jumped on
the bandwagon and created a documentary of Keith, showcasing The Great Korean Invasion of Keith Ape. Keith
continues his streak with the release of his latest song Let Us Prey and features Bryan Cha$e. He
also performed at SXSW with NOISEY, describing
it as the craziest rap show at SXSW.
“Living up to the rock star, hardcore aesthetic Keith Ape's denim-clad cohort projected,
and it blew the crowd away,” NOISEY
Aside from his killer rap skills, Keith is also an obscure performer with some serious fashion style. From his face
masks to his tattered denim and metal t-shirts, the rapper also made his New
York Fashion Week debut at the VFILES SS16 show where he performed his global
call-to-fame single, It
G Ma.
