About this event
The Community Center for the Performing Arts and LNE Presents are pleased to welcome Kota The Friend – Just Happy To Be Here Tour to the WOW Hall on Tuesday, October 20th. Brooklyn rapper Kota the Friend bucks trends, favoring musically rich instrumentals and vivid, sometimes surreal wordplay over the interchangeable trap styles of many of his peers. His personal, often introspective lyrics and jazz-inflected beats met with well-groomed production on his 2020 album, Everything .
Kota the Friend was born in Brooklyn in 1992. He started exploring music by playing trumpet at age eight, growing more and more interested in music production in his high school years. He performed in various bands and worked as a cinematographer for independent musicians’ video projects before establishing himself as a solo artist with a trio of singles in 2017.
