KIDOH performs at Club Bound in Los Angeles

A Kidoh show has been a long time coming, and at first no one was sure it would happen. So, when news rolled out that Kidoh was having a free show in SF and LA, many fans took to social media to show their excitement (or upset per the Instagram comments) at their chances to catch Kidoh live in the US. The little less than half hour set list was an appetizer of Kidoh’s musical catalogue, and after giving full attention to the lyrical content of the show, I can see why he got the 21 and over label.

In this four-track album, Kidoh raps about what he has learned from various hardships over the years. With diverse genres including funk pop and the title track ‘weed you’ being entirely in English, ‘School of Hard Knocks‘ shows that Kidoh is getting ready to go global. ‘S.O.H.K’ also includes the track ‘HER’ which was pre-released along with a music video.

Together with producer Simo, Kidoh produced and directed all tracks, showing his skills as an artist in addition to his rapping.
