KHUFU ANKH AMUN

Khufu Ankh Amun has been rapping, recording, & performing since he was six years old. He is a native to New Jersey but has traveled and performed from the small town of Monroe, Louisianna to the well known southern city of Atlanta. He has a style and sound that is so unique that is like nothing you have heard before, his style has been influenced from the traditional to the untraditional. In his early stages he was heavily influenced by artist such as Tupac Shakur who opened his eyes to the injustices been done to black people and those who had fought against them, this had a major impact on Khufu as a youth who was on a path headed for destruction. Artist such as Tupac and Afrika Bambaataa opened Khufu’s eyes to see that he could remain the warrior that he was born to be, but that he could use it to build up and not tear down. In recent years Khufu Ankh Amun has been influenced by his own life experiences calling upon his memories as a reckless but good-hearted youth in the streets, to a now mature, healthy, balanced man who is the provider, protector, and warrior to both his family and his people. Khufu Ankh Amun knows first hand the impact that music can have on people even on a scientific level, and that is why he puts his best foot forward and makes sure as he says in one of his songs that, "...the tones in my music, set my people free". Any who have the priviledge and honor of hearing one of the next upcoming greatest rappers of this time will not soon forget his words and the impact of love and positivity will lingere on in their hearts...an artist such as Khufu Ankh Amun is coming along in a time where music, especially hip-hop/rap ask of the artist to promote and glorify a lifestyle of drugs, disrespect to women, negative thinking, and materialism so Khufu Ankh Amun like many great leaders before comes bringing a message that differs from what is being sold to the people today. Khufu represents a new day and time. Khufu Ankh Amun doesn’t attempt to change the entire world, he simply hopes to offer another way, because if you give people only one option, what choice do they have? but you give people options and you let them choose. And for those who want a change for the better and a higher level of music; Khufu Ankh Amun is that choice.
