RICHMOND, Va. – July 1, 2025 — Rising hip-hop artist Kng Deno is making waves from the heart of Virginia with a powerful message and a fresh new single. Blending life experiences from both the streets and the suburbs, Kng Deno is carving out a lane of his own—one that unites the hustle of the trenches with the perspective of the privileged.
Born and raised between Richmond and Triangle, Virginia, Deno’s upbringing gave him a rare lens: “I’ve seen both sides—wealthy people who have it all and folks who are fighting to survive,” he says. “I want my music to be the bridge between those worlds.”
Music has always been a part of Deno’s DNA. Raised in a family of artists, he was exposed to studio sessions, live performances, and the soul of church choirs from an early age. His late father, a musician himself, laid the foundation—bringing Deno to video shoots and introducing him to the life of a creative. His upbringing was steeped in gospel and street realism, with every influence leaving a permanent mark on his sound.
After years of self-discovery, Deno found clarity in his calling: “Music is my purpose, whether I get paid or not,” he says. “It brings me peace. Before this, I was lost—working dead-end jobs with no sense of direction. Now I know why I’m here.”
That passion culminates in his latest release, “Bundy” featuring B.lone, a track that dropped June 27, 2025 and is already generating buzz online. Gritty, introspective, and raw, the single is a testament to his vision and versatility. Listen to “Bundy” on all platforms.
With an eye on the future, Kng Deno is aiming for more than success—he’s chasing icon status. “I want to be in conversations with Future, Chris Brown, Beyoncé, 50 Cent… that level,” he says. “But it starts with building awareness, one song at a time.”
For now, Deno is focused on laying the groundwork and connecting with fans who see themselves in his story. No gimmicks. Just real music, real messages, and a rising artist determined to bridge every gap.
