Today we’d like to introduce you to KMack Knokville.
Hi KMack, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Kevin “K Mack” Mack was born in Baltimore, Maryland on July 23, 1973.
Attending Baltimore public schools is where he began his love for music,
entering school and local talent shows to get exposure in the community. In
1992 KMack dropped his first demo tape with 2 other childhood friends to make
up the group Force of Terror. Then in 1994 he started another rap group with 3
other friends called “Dome Swella’z” that were well known in the local rap
ciphers around the city.
In late 1994, the group decided to go separate ways. KMack went solo for 4
months working with local producer Jay Funk on a 6 song demo, which landed a
deal with a local independent label ran by Baltimore’s’ own DJ Concrete called
the “Concrete & Wiz Foundation”. The Concrete foundation signed another solo
artist by the name of Silouette, which would soon be the other half of the duo
Annexx Clique. The Annexx Clique began doing intros for D.J.Concrete mix
tapes in 1994 to start the buzz in the streets, which was the marketing plan of
the label to see the response of the public.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
No, it hasn’t been a smooth road at all. Challenges involving certain groups or record labels that I was a part of simply not working out. Sometimes we, meaning my team may have ran into financial difficulties and was unable to support project ideas at the we wanted.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I am most proud of how I represent the city of Baltimore in my music. I am proud of some of the awards I have received throughout my music and acting career. In 2024 UNK a duo that I am apart of with Super music producer Jay Funk Carter for our self-titled album UNK won duo of the year, then in 2025 I was honored with a Baltimore Hip-hop Legend Award. This really meant a lot to me because I have been representing my city for over 30 years and I knew this awards from my city meant the most. I am set apart from the rest because most my age starting from the 90’s no longer create with their pen. I am also proud because I was able to include acting to my resume in addition to acting as well as other facets of entertainment and it all stared from hip-hop.
Before we go, is there anything else you can share with us?
I currently have an album out now called UNK on all platforms as well as 2 projects currently on Tubi, Commandments of A Female Hustler, Coming out in November 2026 is a Christmas film, The Gift We Forgot and Coming Soon to Tubi Men On Pause. Also, Behind The Lenz with KMack KnokVille on UpliftTV and Roku. I am also Co-Founder of The Beat The Odds Youth Arts Academy opening December 5th 2026 in the Hollins Market Area in Baltimore Maryland.
