KIN

A new day is upon us, and hip hop's answer to the question "what happened to the female rap game" is here. Blessed with the lyrical prowess to compete with the hottest emcees in the business, as well as singing every hook on their albums, and being touted as the female version of The Neptunes, the female duo KIN4LIFE is a triple threat. Together as a group for ten years and friends for over fifteen, Nor and IQ have solidified their family ties and KIN4LIFE has never had a truer meaning.
Born and raised in Mt. Vernon, NY, a town known for its contribution to hip hop in the late 80s and early 90s, KIN4LIFE is determined to bring hip hop glory back to their hometown and respect back to their genre. As young entrepreneurs, they founded their label, Noriq Records in 2002. Under this imprint, they have released the album"KIN4LIFE Volume I" and the EPs "Rock Star" and "I Love KIN4LIFE". The video for the hit single "Make Up Girl" held a spot on the Click List Countdown on MTV's Logo for 11 consecutive weeks, and was nominated for The Click List's Top 10 Videos of 2009. KIN4LIFE has headlined the GO Magazine New York Nightlife Awards show; Pride celebrations in Philadelphia, Toronto, Columbia, S.C. and other cities; and Inferno Dominican Republic on Labor Day weekend, where they performed for the second consecutive year in 2011,along with Grammy nominee Marsha Ambrosius. KIN4LIFE was chosen as Group of the Year by the OutHipHop.com 2010 Readers Poll.
KIN4LIFE admits that their first love is emceeing, but their production and songwriting skills makes them a hot commodity behind the scenes. Working with the hottest up and coming hip hop and R&B acts, KIN4LIFE garnered comparison to Missy Elliot, prompting them to form Noriq Records' subsidiaries, Red Eye Productions and The KIN Factory (writing and production). They showcased their talent as producers in the fall of 2009, winning the "King of the ATL" battle at the industry proving ground Producer's Swap Meet in Atlanta. Their single "Money Brings Trouble" was chosen for placement in the feature film "Changing The Game" which premiered at the 2011 Hollywood Black Film Festival. KIN4LIFE will perform as cast members in an Atlanta production of Eve Ensler's "The Vagina Monologues" this spring.
KIN4LIFE wrote and produced the single "Lone Ranger" in support of LGBTQ youth, and in response to the recent wave of bullying and attacks that have made national headlines. The track was released as a free download on Christmas Day 2010 and had 2000 downloads in the first 48 hours. KIN4LIFE has also been featured on the PBS Emmy winning series "In The Life: Defying Stereotypes" which they now screen at universities across the country along with an interactive panel discussion for students and faculty.
