Soul Kai, also known as L.M. or simply Luis, is a rapper born in Madrid to Peruvian parents, and currently resides in Berlin. Hooked on hip-hop and its elements from a young age, he expresses his life and surroundings through every bar he writes. Nowadays, he is part of different collectives from Madrid to Berlin, supporting urban culture and expanding his knowledge. Always with headphones on and the occasional paint stain, he is a hustler who loves music beyond capitalistic profit. He is currently finishing his next project, an EP alongside Consuelo Worldwide and solo tracks with Canibal Beats in production, mix, and mastering.
Consuelo Worldwide (They/he) is a Spanish rapper of Rwandan descent currently residing in Berlin. Throughout their career as a musician, they have explored various aspects of hip-hop. Their aim is to reflect on the experience of marginality in their lyrics and sounds, capturing both the obstacles and joys that come with a life on the margins. Currently, they are delving into more niche subgenres of hip-hop such as jerk, jersey beats, and trip hop, as they continue to develop their sound.
Additionally, they are collaborating on a joint EP with Soulkai and engaging in several other collaborative projects.
