July 20, 2024Is Childish Gambino Dissing Drake in His New Track 'Yoshinoya'?

King Coopa (A.K.A BiggBumpDown) was born in Rochester, NY on July 2nd, 1995. He moved to Memphis, TN at 3 yrs old, where he was raised in East Memphis, Parkway Village. 

He always had music in his life while playing instruments at a young age in his community, but didn’t start rapping until the end of 2017. In 2019, he signed himself through United Masters, started recording in the studio, and started taking his rap career more seriously. What led to this in his own words he

Stated: “Music is pretty much my outlet & venting method, and although I’ll ride or drive almost anything that goes fast to get steam off too, I think music is the most peaceful way I release.”

This was even more true in early 2020 when he lost 4 very important people in his life in the span of a month. He described how it affected him while channeling his focus on his career: “I shot my shot at every net I seen hanging afterwards.”

After taking a year off of releasing music to focus on his sound, traveling, and developing himself as an artist, King Coopa most recently signed to CMG artist Big Boogie’s new label “RedRumTheLabel” at the top of 2023. 

With new music on the way, King Coopa is gearing up to take all his supporters with him through his new journey to make his mark in the rap game and beyond.
