Kenny Knox - Git Ghetto


Life hardships, unfairly dealt hands, hurt, disappointment, abandonment and a harsh reality describes most of what St. Louis, MI native and hard core rap artist Kenny Knox has endured. Only 2 and 1/2 yrs ago, he survived being opened fired upon by a shower of bullets but everyone with him did not. A father, a rap artist, a motivational speaker and a humble and Blessed man with a burning fire to speak about the harsh realities of certain lifestyles through the lyrics that constantly pour forth from his his heart. During his special interview in the FuZion Zone we were able to drop his debut single "Git Ghetto" from his forthcoming album, along with, dropping the next previously unreleased track from his album project featuring Chingy called "Metal Banging".

Aside from his music, we were touched by his personal testimony about surviving a nearly fatal life changing event where he and the people with him were gunned down and how everyone did not make it. Not only did he have to learn to walk again, he had to learn to live again and without the presence of some of the people who were closest to him in his life. At the end of the interview he sent out two extremely powerful and loud messages to those contemplating a lifestyle in the streets or desiring to get out. Check out this extremely emotional interview in the FuZion Zone archives.
