K. Roosevelt

Bio Los Angeles-based artist, K. Roosevelt, is a singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist. His breakthrough single "Do Me Now" featuring Hit-Boy (2013) rose to the top of Billboard’s R&B charts before he made his full-length debut on Interscope with Neon Haze (2016). Following a stint with Def Jam, his second major-label affiliation where he put out the stellar genre-bending self-titled album K. Roosevelt (2018), he has self-released funkier yet more atmospheric projects such as the Bloom EP (2019) and the full-length Solstice (2022). His secondary discography as a collaborator includes tracks headlined by the varied likes of Jhené Aiko, the Game, M.I.A., and Rapsody. The son of renowned blues artist Keb' Mo', the L.A.-born Kevin Roosevelt Moore II started out as a drummer before he took up beatmaking, piano, guitar, and songwriting. He picked up his first major credits across 2011 and 2012, most notably singing hooks on Jhené Aiko's "Real Now" and the Game's "Can't Get Right." RoseGold, his first mixtape as K. Roosevelt, appeared in 2013 and yielded "Do Me Now”. Roosevelt contributed to tracks by M.I.A. and YG the same year. He continued to work behind the scenes, writing tracks for the likes of Mahalia and Jesse Boykins III. Roosevelt could also be heard on Rapsody's "Maya." His latest work, the 5-song EP, Kiss Me When You See Me goes further into Roosevelt’s musical brand of R&B, with the stellar “Dance” as the centerpiece of the project.
