KOJ is the sound of defiance. Rising from Liverpool in the North of the UK, he is a working-class voice turned outward - loud enough to cut through the noise, resilient enough to withstand resistance, and connected enough to authentically represent a frustrated generation. Unrestricted by labels and shaped by the lived reality of modern Britain, KOJ stands at the forefront of a new era in UK music and culture.

KOJ’s music lives at the explosive intersection of UK subcultures born from resistance, identity and socio-political unrest. Revolutionary in spirit yet populist in appeal, his work is designed to connect, move and be felt collectively - a breath of fresh air in an era defined by economic pressure, divisive politics and a generation fighting to be heard.
That authority is already evident. His debut EP Villain With A Conscience showcased both lyrical command and emotional weight, earning acclaim from Clash, Wonderland and The Face, alongside Apple Music and Amazon Music. Live, KOJ doesn’t perform - he leads. From Boomtown and Latitude to Radio 1 Big Weekend, Reeperbahn and SXSW, his shows are charged, communal moments where tension turns into release and individual voices rise as one.
Inspired by purpose-led activism, KOJ is building more than a catalogue. Through campaign driven visuals, forward-thinking collaborations and his growing TRiBE music community, he is creating a movement rooted in unity, resistance and forward motion. As The F-Word Magazine put it: “KOJ is a man on a mission.”
In 2026, KOJ unveils PUNK PANTHER - his most cohesive and confrontational work to date. A bold synthesis of sound, vision and intent, it explores leadership, visibility and freedom of expression in an age of global conflict, digital hostility and cultural surveillance. Honest, heavy and unapologetic by design, PUNK PANTHER doesn’t just respond to the moment - it reshapes it.
