BIOGRAPHY
Previously known as Leo Kekoa. L.E.O. has earned quite a reputation in the underground music scene with his powerful rap. Born in Washington D.C. and raised in Hawaii, he can write rhyming lyrics in both English and Korean. He says that his musical inspiration comes from the troubled adolescent years, which explains why his music is so powerful and explosive. With the passing of years, however, his music has become mellower and more progressive, which was evident in his second album. A testament to his long effort and strong commitment to music, �Black Belt� was selected by music critics as one of the most promising albums of the year.

Nuol, San-E, Verbal Jint & more collaborate for “Stand Up, Japan”

With Nuol at the lead, rappers Beenzino, Dead P, Swings, San-E, Verbal Jint, L.E.O., Baby Bu, Dawn, and designer Brownbreath have come together for a special collaboration single titled, “Stand Up, Japan!“.

Nuol commented, “Watching what was going on in Japan through the media was so shocking – I knew that I wanted to do something to help, even if it’s something small like this. As opposed to creating a song fit to the times, I instead focused on perfecting it as a stand-alone song. I hope that Japan will remember it.”

All profits made from the digital single will be donated to aid in Japan’s relief efforts. Remember to support the effort by purchasing the music here.
