Born in Seattle Washington to his mother Carol Pierce and his father Kenneth Pierce Sr. Kenneth Pierce II, better known as KAP II, grew up in a single parent home after his father and mother split and divorced while he still being a young boy, was forced to grow up in a single parent home at the age of 5 His father being void in his role in the home caused KAP II to be very bitter about life. KAP II started fighting literally everyday at school: to the extent where his mother had this to say on the subject: “he used to come home with blood stains all over his shirt everyday.” Being the eldest of two other siblings made him very protective which meant even more fights.



Speeding up to high school, KAP II was leading a very out of control life; Fornication, drugs, extreme violence and flat out immorality. KAP II said this about his high school experience: “I had gotten to the point where I hated my life, the men my mom would bring into our lives really influenced my not so manhood: all of their drugs, foul mouths, violence and horrible treatment towards my mom just threw more gasoline on my fire. Her alcohol abuse, fights, bein’ molested by my so-called babysitter, getting expelled twice made me just say forget everything and so I dropped out of school and just went on a violent rampage.”



Yet God is faithful!!! The Lord sent a man in the path of KAP II. While he, illegally being on school grounds was having a conversation with about 40 of his friends. This man approached him and said: “young man I don’t know you and you look like you’re a very intimidating person but I would be foolish if I didn’t tell you that God loves you.” So KAP II immediately cringed his fists and was about to strike him when the Lord supernaturally intervened and touched his heart. KAP II began to listen to the message and it really pierced his heart. So after several months of God slowly starting to work in KAP II he slowly started to give God everything that was hindering him. He surrendered his life to Jesus Christ on March 08, 2000!



KAP II since a youth has had the gift of Rap and he’s totally surrendered his talents to the Lord since his conversion. He’s performed at countless Block parties, concerts, youth events, morning services, fundraisers and much more. He’s opened up for artists such as: Flame, Json, This’l, and J.R. KAP II Was privileged to open up for Lecrae and Tedashii for the Resurgence Conference at Mars Hill (Ballard, Washington campus) with audiences such as Mark Driscoll, John Piper, C.J. Mahaney, Pastor Eric Mason, Pastor Duce or better known as Ambassador, the entire Cross Movement, Reach Life, and Lamp Mode camps on looking from the audience, for a total of about 1,500 in all. Plus there is tons more to his musical resume.



He is passionate about the brokenhearted saying this: “I used to be so spiritually dead and it just kills me when I think about all that I’ve been through, I just wanna bring good news to those who hate life and have no ambition to live… I wanna point the void person who searches for all kinds of things but are never satisfied to Jesus the Christ and encourage them that all of their sufferings and all of their torment and all of the inadequacies and short-comings are to bring forth one thing and that one thing is God’s glory. Why He would use such a wretch like me and so many others is beyond me? Yet, I praise His name!



Grace and peace.
