While we anxiously await his debut album, Houston native, Kirko Bangz, provides us with a Bluestaar-directed video for his freestyle over Drake’s “30 for 30” track on What A Time To Be Alive. Kirko brings it back to his musical roots, spilling his heart out in rapping form.

“I feel like I have a bunch of fans and kids looking up to me and who have been riding because I motivate them through my music. Lately, all I’ve been giving them is radio-friendly records due to what I’ve been going through career wise,” he says. Inspired by Eminem’s storytelling growing up, Kirko is eager to show the world what he has to offer as a multifaceted artist.

Kirko’s debut album is set to drop early next year. Until then, check out his “30 For 30” freestyle video below.
