Initially an aspiring basketball superstar Kelvin Mitchell or "KMitch" has gone through his fair share of ups and downs but feels now he has finally found his true calling. Upon receiving a basketball scholarship to the University of Denver in June of 2007 this is where KMitch would be introduced to Shervin Bunch and his home based label Waydown Records, but after an incident that would force KMitch to not only transfer schools but also leave the city of Denver the promise that Waydown records saw in KMitch would be put on hold. Later in 2008 KMitch would find himself trying to salvage his basketball career and keep his music hopes alive in the city of Ada, Ok. There he did several shows opening up for the likes of Slim Thug, E40, and Twista just to name a few but completion of a project was tough due to the separation from his executive producer. "Confidentally" feat Terry Black a song off his debut album "True Testimony" began getting spins on Ada's radio station 105.5 the x-factor and was highly regarded as the next hit and also showed the major potential KMitch possessed as a solo artist. As his music began to gain more exposure his dreams of playing collegiate basketball began to fade. In 2008 he left ECU in Ada to pursue his music full time. Making pit stops in Dallas and his hometown Houston Texas KMitch has finally found his home in Pittsburgh, PA where his label is currently based. Enhancing his lyrical ability through growth and his life experiences KMitch is now more determined than ever to show the world he is the next best thing and is here to stay for years to come.
