Kareem Kalokoh

Born and raised in Athens, Greece, Kareem Kalokoh is a hip hop artist – a member and co-founder of the ATH KIDS collective.

He started making music at the age of 17, after he decided to drop out of high school and grind his way into the hip hop music scene. His first EP, titled “ATH2090s” and released on Soundcloud, paid homage to his hometown of Athens. Along with Valentin Rivera, his partner and co-founder of the ATH KIDS collective, he managed to create his own unique world: the new street Athenian perspective, conveyed through music and visuals, was enough to captivate the audience, whereas dark heavy-hitting anthems like “OTAM” and “New Flame” created a huge buzz in the city.

His debut album “Congo” was his breakthrough record, while singles off the album (such as “Whip Game”) landed him a spot at the “A Colors Show” and a great number of shows in France, Germany, London, New York, and the Netherlands. That was always the plan. He often refers to himself and his crew as “the Greek Gods.”

Kareem has his sight set on becoming a huge global artist and putting Athens, his city, on the map.
