From the sunny streets of West Palm Beach, FL, YKabes is making waves both in the music world and by the poolside. Known for his unique style that fuses elements of multiple genres with singing and rapping, YKabes (Instagram: @kev.yk) has been dedicated to his craft since 2018. His fresh take on hip-hop has garnered him attention, and he’s determined to keep pushing the boundaries of his sound.
A Life Split Between Two Worlds
By day, YKabes works as a pool boy for his father’s company, maintaining pools and managing the family business alongside his brother. Their responsibilities ramped up when their father needed heart surgery, leaving YKabes and his brother in charge of 180 pools each week. Despite the physically demanding job, YKabes remains focused on his music. Once the day’s work is done, he heads home to record, determined not to let his day job slow his creative momentum.
A Rising Star
YKabes isn’t just hustling on the pool route—his music career is on the rise. His recent track “Leon Kennedy” has already surpassed 100,000 streams on Spotify, marking a major milestone for the emerging artist. With an abundance of new songs ready for release, he’s gearing up for an exciting future in the hip-hop scene.
Fans in South Florida will also get a chance to see YKabes perform live next month, as he’s set to take the stage in Lake Worth on October 26th. It’s just the beginning for a rapper who is truly balancing two worlds but thriving in both.
YKabes is a testament to perseverance, proving that with hard work and passion, anything is possible—whether it’s cleaning pools or creating chart-worthy hits.
