Emcee, songwriter, and poet Javier Starks joins #KenCenHipHop to present his #LifeIn5.
Embraced by many of the music industry’s biggest names, including Robert Glasper, Common, Miles Mosley, and Keyon Harrold, Javier finds inspiration in every genre of music while still paying tribute to Hip Hop’s “golden era.” His unique curse-free musical style is youth-friendly, yet edgy, and skilled enough to appeal to music lovers of all ages and genres.
In addition to his solo career, Javier is an educator and skateboarder. Working with young people in the DMV since 2005, Javier shares that his mission and goal is to “teach kids why self-respect and respecting others is so important when expressing ourselves through art.”
#LifeIn5 is a #KenCenHipHop digital storytelling initiative providing artists with an opportunity to share the top five hip hop songs that tell their story.
