Kadesh Flow
"A propulsive emcee, a bold songwriter, a skilled trombonist, an auspicious producer and an enterprising artist" - 90.9 The Bridge
Hailing from Kansas City, MO by way of Spanish Fort, AL, Kadesh Flow is a rapper with an MBA & a trombone Super Saiyan. Classically trained and boasting jazz, hip hop, blues and funk backgrounds, he lyrically hops between socioeconomic musings to life bars that are laced with anime and video game references. These have led to opportunities with outlets like Toonami, as well as various feature film projects. Desh has recorded as a studio trombonist with artists like Jidenna and boasts performances supporting artists such as Janelle Monae, Dave East, Rakim, Kool and the Gang, Trombone Shorty, The Revivalists, Tech N9ne, Naughty by Nature, and numerous other prolific acts.
Kadesh is a member of the NPC (Nerdy People of Color) Collective, through which he is working to foster more representation for underrepresented and marginalized groups in “nerd” and “geek” spaces via performance, public speaking, and social engagement.
