RCA/Roc Nation recording artist K.Koke is all that and more. His new single 'Lay Down Your Weapons' featuring Roc Nation label mate Rita Ora, is out March 3rd. Recently nominated for an MTV Brand New for 2013, 4Music Fresh for 2013 as well as a brace of press tips, 2013 looks set to be the year for K.Koke.

His debut album I Aint Perfect is due out Summer 2013 and will feature guest slots from Rita Ora, Maverick Sabre, Emeli Sande and production from Jahlil Beats, Naughty B and others. "I've got so much stuff in my head right now. I've had to soak it all up, the case, my feelings, everything that's been surrounding me. I just need to get it all out, then I think I'll be alright. I'm gassed up, I'm jumping, I'm ready to explode. Real soon."
