ANTONIO BLK

about

ANTONIO BLK is a 15-year-old rapper, producer and songwriter, hailing from the UK - with heavy American influences. BLK switches seamlessly between making melodic, lyrical and conscious rap. He initially released his first EP under the name "BLKOUT" before deciding to change his artist name to "ANTONIO BLK", after help from fellow upcoming artist and collaborator Fool Keal. After dropping his first single "Foreign Goals", in August of 2025, he gained a small amount of traction which led to him releasing the ipm produced track "In My Pocket" the very next month.
