COLTRAIN is a 6 song tape I made in my apartment on Franklin & Diamond from 2016-2017
I had a bed, mic & mini fridge. I was battling a pill habit and crippling depression and everything reminded me of the pain Heroin caused my fam.. I worked on K&A at a small cricket store and everyday was a reminder, the blues.
Coltrain is for John Coltrane .. the sound scapes at the time .. the train was what hung over me - it was it’s own planet
.. my life is very different now and I wanted to hold this back forever but it’s here for you.
It’s a lookback and a opportunity to let go of those days and a celebration to new K’Nen.
A lot of these beats were found on Soundcloud a long time ago so I apologize to anyone uncredited.
Feel free to share, but most importantly feel free to listen and understand
Love - K '
Seen a lot. Fought for what I believed in. Worked tirelessly, loved hard, and put everything I had into building the most creative life possible—for me and my family.
2025 was one of the toughest years I’ve faced, but the way it closed reminded me what comes with taking real steps and standing in belief.
Even if the only thing you can believe in is yourself. 💐❤️
From first day to last day, Ive been so proud of you.
Kindergarten has to prepare for you Maya.
My genius, my star, my beanie. Pride and joy isn’t even close to how much you bring us. Congratulations on crushing Headstart.
Sometimes people get lost, forget who they are and become jaded to life and relationships.
I’m so lucky we found eachother. You woke K back up and taught me what it means to love beyond what can be but for what is.
You’re the most beautiful human, the most stylish, the best to talk to. You’re gentle and accepting to everything in my life & still I get the jitters in excitement to seeing you. You’re my safe place & the place that makes me uncomfortable with myself enough to push harder. The reminder. If there’s something after this life - I hope I can find you there too.
2 years flew… thank you for loving me the way you do.
Thank you for saying yes to being my girlfriend a year ago today… I was on my way to Philly and like always I got anxious and thought If anything was to happen I’d like her to know what she was to me.
Mezziah, only you and god know how much you mean to me.
You’re my best friend, you taught me so much in this year, and most of all you love Kaynen for every part of who he is - I’ve become private and a bit more jaded over the years but you’re something that’s always worth celebrating. Love you Forever Amoré
