Rapidly rising Orlando rapper Kuttem Reese unveils his introspective and immersive new REESE EP out now via Republic Records/448 Music Group/CKN Entertainment. Stream it — HERE.
The 18-track body of work stands out as his most personal, poetic, and powerful piece to date. Among many highlights, the single “TYFNB” (an acronym for “Thank You For Not Believing”) cuts deep. His voice slides over acoustic guitar as he issues a reminder to never give up with the reflective refrain, “I remember when nobody ain’t believe in me. Now, it’s cameras, and these flashes when they seeing me.” On the other end of the spectrum, he turns up on “You The Type.” The latter flaunts his fiery energy atop a head-nodding beat. He also attracted an all-star cast of guests to join him. He links up with multiplatinum Chicago star G Herbo on “The One,” while Kiwiana Bae blessed “My Kinda Bitch” with an attitude-laden cameo. Prior to the project’s arrival, he served up “Phone Lights” [feat. NoCap] and “Black Forces” [feat. Ski Mask The Slump God], piling up over 1 million streams and counting.
Kuttem Reese has notably generated over 107 million total streams and 24 million YouTube views. Beyond co-signs from superstars such as 21 Savage, Rod Wave, and more, he has teamed up with Lil Durk, Chief Keef, and Fredo Bang on tracks. Moreover, his music has appeared on Issa Rae’s Rap Sh*t, CBS’s The Equalizer, and Madden 2022.
Plus, he has regularly incited the applause of Lyrical Lemonade, HotNewHipHop, and many more. Last year, Kuttem Reese also wrapped up a sold-out run supporting City Morgue on the Monster Energy Outbreak Tour Presents Bottom of the Barrel, performing to packed crowds coast-to-coast.

About Kuttem Reese
Kuttem Reese has quietly and carefully prepared to introduce himself. The Florida-born hip-hop phenomenon fearlessly puts all of his scars, stories, truths, and triumphs on display in his music, holding nothing back in the process. This honesty has transformed him into a phenomenon with tens of millions of streams and acclaim from the likes of Lyrical Lemonade, TRSH Magazine, and HotNewHipHop, to name a few. His story began in Orlando. As the oldest of six kids, an eight-year-old Reese watched his mom taken away to serve a three-year prison sentence. During this period, he stayed with his grandmother and anesthetized the pain by recording rhymes on beats cooked up by a friend. Launching his career in 2020, he turned heads with “My Story,” “Boston Celtics,” “Call It,” and “Madden.” Signing to Republic in partnership with 448 Music Group and CKN Entertainment, he creatively advanced once more on the 2021 Kutt Dat Boy mixtape. Beyond collaborations with Chief Keef, Fredo Bang, and ATL Jacob, it boasted the banger “No Statements” [feat. Lil Durk]. The latter gathered over 40 million-plus views and 10.4 million Spotify streams. He notably notched a spot on the Madden 22 Soundtrack with “Industry Music,” toured with City Morgue, and incited tastemaker applause. Now, he opens up like never before on his 2023 Reese EP [Republic Records/448 Music Group/CKN Entertainment] and much more to come.
