k, le maestro: whip music
Francisco Espregueira
K, Le Maestro has been on our radar for a couple of years. His notoriety for reworks across SoundCloud, for the high karat projects he participated in (working with FloFilz, S. Fidelity or Bluestaeb), and for the singles released in the past years, is totally deserved. Hailing from London, K, Le Maestro has build a reputation for himself and now presents his debut LP via Jakarta Records, the perfect platform for him to fly even higher. WHIP MUSIC has been in preparations since 2019, celebrating K’s evolution as an artist. It reflects his journey from making beats for himself in his bedroom to having his edits widespread across the internet and garnering popularity in the outside world among DJs and music heads alike.
On WHIP MUSIC, K, Le Maestro showcases his versatilty, jumping from Dilla-influenced hip hop gems to groovy r&b head-nodders. He has a fine tuned ear for beats and rhythms that are able get us moving and feel within, fusing between different genres while maintaining the signature knock that his instrumentals provide. The LP is one of those occasions in which the artist matches what his listeners were expecting. At 22 years old K, Le Maestro is on his way to leave a mark. Available on vinyl, via Jakarta Records.
