Knowledge Above All Nonsense. These are the words that make up Maryland lyricist’s K.A.A.N. artist name, and he has enacted them in his bars all throughout his career. On many of his songs and projects, such as his May 2021 Kaizen album, K.A.A.N. has enlisted the help of renowned producer Dem Jointz for instrumentals.
Dem Jointz is famed for his contributions to Dr. Dre and Eminem’s work throughout their careers, and recently aided Kanye West on many of his Donda songs like “Jail” with Jay-Z and “Keep My Spirit Alive” with Griselda artists Westside Gunn and Conway.
Now, K.A.A.N. and Dem Jointz are back again, as Dem provided the production for K.A.A.N.’s new project Mission Hillz, released on March 11. The album contains the four promotional singles in “Greatness,” “Matter Fact,” “I See” and “2 Much.”
