With a career spanning a decade, Kur showcases his resilience in the fast paced music industry. He doesn’t just create music; he architects a narrative of triumph. Through clever punchlines and a high-octane delivery, he declares his position and reflects on the journey, strategic planning and a consistent pursuit of success, reiterated in his quote, “I had to really plan it. Then, I put in action and I looked up and it finally happened.”
The visual features a cameo by Philly Goats’ D Sturdy, adding an extra layer of authenticity to Kur’s artistic expression. The top notch production of “Mountains” shows Kur’s devotion to his craft, earning him the stripes he proudly wears in the industry.
