Blakk Moses Releases New Project “Wikk Blokk Vol 1”

“Dream bigger than others can imagine and always remember if you can see it, you can be it.” This is a quote rapper Blakk Moses lives by. It reflects his big dreams and dedication as an artist. He is confident that he is destined to become the next superstar to make it out of the Midwest and he is ready for the world to know his name.

Coming from having a love for all genres of music while incorporating storytelling and addictive flows, the Youngstown, Ohio native can flip the switch from gutter rap to hype sounds. Growing up, he looked up to rap icons like 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, and Tupac. These artists helped develop his sound and aesthetic. It is his versatility and songwriting abilities that will ultimately set him apart from his peers over the coming years.

“I moved to Cleveland in the 7th grade, I have to give thanks to my mother for getting us out of the city and setting me up for a better life.”

Blakk Moses who grew up in a family that comes from the streets frequently thanks his mother for everything he has in life. She always aimed to steer him in the right direction and support his dreams. His brother was drafted into the NBA and Moses was going to follow him but he ended up hurting both of his knees. He looks at the situation as a positive though explaining the injury ruined his basketball career but it helped him focus on his overall purpose.

In his previous songs like “Bend Sum” and “5Eva,” it shows listeners everything Moses is capable of making. He calls “Bend Sum” a heavy banger that is bound to get music lovers on their feet. In 2023 he traveled across Florida on the Streets Most Wanted Tour to promote his single “Way We Live.” January 18 he’s releasing his EP called ‘Wikk Blokk Vol 1.’ This is a special moment for him because he really feels like a rapper. He always knew he would be a star and the music he is making proved just that.

“I see myself evolving in every way. I love music and one day I will be versatile enough for everyone.” -Blakk Moses
