Listen "TPOE 258: Chris Kabs"
Episode Synopsis
Chris Kabs is a rapper and producer from Dublin who's just released his debut EP Y NOT? He's worked with artists such as Tolü Makay, Hudis, and JyellowL, including on the latter's Choice Prize-nominated debut album 2020 Division, and with Coolio right up to about a month before his death in September 2022, which sounds like it hit him quite hard. He's signed with Roughbones, got a deal with PureSyncInc in London and brand deals with Ellesse and fashion tech company With Legacy, so he's a busy man. We chat about his making hundreds of songs, his collaborations, on coming close to giving up on music but fighting through with a smile, on finding the formula for music, and lots more. Chris Kabs plays a headline show with Loud Motive and an all-star support cast at the Green Room in Dublin's Academy this Saturday, April 22.
