Carlos “King Los” Coleman knows his mission in life. “I want to be the greatest rapper ever,” the Baltimore native says with an unwavering confidence. “I’m just trying to exhibit the best rap stuff you ever heard.”
The goal sounds like a lofty one, but when you listen to Los rhyme, things don’t sound so far-fetched. After releasing his first mixtape in 2008 Los has dropped 14 projects; all of which display expert lyricism. His latest, God, Money, War is a
layered look into the complexities of man, all built around tightly woven rhyme schemes and every man reliability.
By 2005, he signed to Diddy’s Bad Boy Entertainment through local Baltimore imprint Bloc Incorporated.
As fate would have it, Diddy continued to seek out King Los and signed him to Bad Boy again in 2012; this time without the middleman. With the famed-music mogul in his corner Los continued to grow and develop a reputation as a top-tier MC, sought-after ghostwriter expert freestyle artist.
He’s been celebrated his 2014 BET Hip-Hop Awards Cypher and last March’s “Sway in the Morning” radio freestyle has garnered over 2.5 million views on YouTube. Los also hit the Billboard charts for the first time in his career in 2013 when he appeared on French Montana’s “Ocho Cinco.”
Last year, Los signed a new deal with RCA Records through After Platinum and 88 Classic. God, Money, War, is the first release from the partnership.
The project’s first single does exactly that. On “War,” Los writes from the perspective of a street hustler who feels he has no options. With the DJ Mustardproduced “Can’t Fade Us,” King Los paints a picture of a party with money falling from the sky. It’s all inspired by street figures who have seen better days.
