South Carolina rapper Dro Kenji weaves together the immediacy of Internet-bred rap with the atmospheric intensity of music he listened to while growing up like Radiohead and XXXTentacion. Kenji was still in high school when he began releasing his original songs online, and soon was taken under the wing of the collective of producers and artists known as Internet Money, who helped him realize his debut studio album, 2021's Eat Your Heart Out. 

Kenji grew up in the sleepy town of Summerville, South Carolina. He began making music when he was in high school, influenced as much by the old-school hip-hop and R&B his parents played for him while he was growing up as the soundtracks to the video games he spent the majority of his time playing. He began writing and recording his own material and sharing the songs online.
