There is a westcoast rap artist that is starting to finially get his promps. Kos has been rapping since an early age. Being a product of a rough 'hood' life has helped grow and at times has landed him in some trouble.

He is causing a 'stir' on the westcoast and finially is starting to get some of the promps he deserves.

I had a chance to ask him a few questions. Visit his web site at http://www.freekos.com  and listen to his audio's and find out what the buzz is about. And remember to support the westcoast artist...
