As founder and leader of internet-borne collective Brockhampton, Corpus Christi native Kevin Abstract has quietly become one of the most important thought leaders in the alternative hip-hop underground. Emerging in 2014 and cultivating a dreamy cloud of hip-hop, R&B, indie rock, emo, and pop, Abstract spills songs about love and social anxiety, detailing his messy high school emotions and his tangled grown-up ones. In both his critically acclaimed solo work and his internet-dominating Brockhampton collective, Abstract's voice remains one of fearless honesty.
