Kbreaz1

Kbreaz1 is a musician/artist/producer (BMI) out of Philadelphia Pa who came into the business professionally in the 80's at PEACE International Records, a gospel subsidiary of Philadelphia International Records, owned and operated by the legendary Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff. After graduating from the Esther Boyer School of Music at Temple University, he co-wrote several songs that were recorded by several artists on the label, and subsequently toured with such artists as Patty Labelle, The Hawkins Family and The Five Blind Boys of Alabama.

After obtaining his MBA in the early 2000's, he started his own music production company Kbreaz1music LLC. Working with several local musicians he produced a catalog of songs that remained unpublished until early 2019 when he released a dozen songs under his artist name of Kbreaz1.  During that time he also produced a radio show called "The Unsigned Artist Show" on TOKOVL radio out of St. Louis MO. The weekly show promoted the music of national and international independent artists.  The show quickly became the top-rated show on the station and developed a large national following. 

In 2020, Kbreaz1 started his own radio internet radio station, WKCB-Philly in a move to expand the reach of the Unsigned Artist Show and provide a platform for independent artists to promote their music during the pandemic. The show has provided over 500 independent artists with airplay and social media promotion of their original material.
