At the current age of 19, Randell Obrain Jones aka Kydd, from the group you might know as IMPAC, is now a solo artist. He is also a striving C.E.O of his label , Southern Boy E.N.T. Around the age of 9 or 10 he began to pick up the craft of making words rhyme, and since then he has been faithful to his first love. Her name is Hip Hop. Kydd says, “you might know her” with a smirk coming from his face, but eyes covered by his new era fitted. After learning a lot from Above All Entertainment C.E.O and former label mate Gutta he looks at the Hip Hop Game in a different way. With a promising solo mixtape on the way, “The Official Testimony” presented by his SSB label mates he plans to show you, WHY he is so confident….
