Kenny Mason: On building a community, being vulnerable, subverting genre, & pushing forward

Over 5 years in the making, we finally sit with rising Atlanta rapper Kenny Mason. We introduced Kenny on NOT 97 back in 2018 and had him write a story for the first edition of NOT A Zine that same year. Kenny came to town on the heels of his latest project 9 and the Route 9 tour. We talk through Kenny’s growth since we first played his music on the show, signing with RCA, collaborating with legends, and touring the country. We discuss Kenny’s unwavering commitment to blurring boundaries and experimenting with sound, and so much more. *Not 97 is powered by The Orchard & Human Re Sources © NOT 97.
