The guitar-wielding alternative hip-hop duo, The Knux, is back with a newly released single titled “Animal”. After a brief hiatus from the music scene, departure from Interscope Records and relocation to KoreaTown in downtown Los Angeles, the two bring some West Coast inspiration on this track coupled with heavy guitar riffs, high energy raps and echoing chorus vocals. This is their first release since their Eraser LP in September 2011 and first single off their upcoming project KTWN, named after the place they now call home.
Look out for more upcoming news and streams from the group and hit the jump to check out their upcoming shows as they tour the globe.
