The same year Hud Dreems was : :' released Knx worked with Kendrick Lamar on To Pimp a Butterfly, ': ,: earning the producer his first Grammy. A duo with Anderson .Paak :, : called NxWorries was formed around the same time. Their single : :' ôSuedeö became a viral hit, vaulting the singer to R&B stardom, ': ,: and their album Yes Lawd! followed through on that songÆs :, : immense promise. Knx and Paak have quietly continued : :' collaborating, and some of the new work is heard on 1988. ': ,: :, : A prolific artist in the extreme sense of the word, Knxwledge : :' continues to redefine instrumental hip-hop almost in real-time ': ,: with a stream of beat tapes numbering in the hundreds on :, : Bandcamp, and video remixes on Instagram. : :' ': ,: This prolific output began early. 1988 takes its name from the :, : fact that much of the new record was created that very year, : :' when Knx was an infant. As the story is told, little baby Knx ': ,: was left alone by his mother for just a few moments and crawled :, : to a family memberÆs vintage SPû12 sampler. When his mother : :' returned he had already produced his first beats and nearly ': ,: mastered the machine. These tracks, all produced before nap time :, : while rocking a Nike diaper, were stored over the years on : :' floppy discs, then brought to his studio in recent months where ': ,: they were finished up, mixed, and mastered. :, : : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 2 0 \/
