About me:

K.I.B (Kibrom Hailemariam), born in Ethiopia then relocated to Australia in 1997 at 10 years of Age. K.I.B has been through many barriers and issues which he overcame to achieve his goals in life and be where he is today as an artist. Facing many issues in the new culture when first introduced to the Australia way of life, K.I.B fell more in love with the idea of using music to express his feeling to a wider audience. Though the new environment that surrounded K.I.B was very different from what he was used to back in Africa, it is evident to see the support from his family in particular his brother contributed to his view of life. Though his high school years were filled drama, K.I.B states that this part of his life was when he truly developed his passion for music. Events of his life where his parents split up and other events, K.I.B believes gave him a greater desires to use music as a tool. K.I.B has been recording music in the studio for the past three years. What initially began as a hobby by recording mixtapes has turned into a passion which portrays originality, creativity and talent. K.I.B uses a mix of new school hip hop and lyrical rap as tool to express his love for music. He spent the last couple years performing and making appearances at clubs, events and gatherings in Perth and Melbourne. K.i.B is currently working on his first LP "From a Weak Foundation" which is an insight of his life experiences, both from his motherland and his current homeland. K.I.B’s music is one with a lot of meaning, His Video for “From A Weak Foundation” has been used on a WA youth awareness CD/DVD and many other compilation CDs in the USA with some songs like “Attention, Man, It’s a New Day” being chosen for song of the day on some online music radios and on the line for synchronising in film.
