About Jon ‘KING’ Cangin:
From the vibrant streets of Bensonhurst to the tranquil monasteries of Thailand, Jon Cangin’s journey is nothing short of remarkable. A maestro of words, an advocate for change, and a beacon of resilience, KING CANGIN transcends the realm of hip-hop to tell a story that’s uniquely his own. Drawing inspiration from hip-hop’s golden era and influenced by icons like Action Bronson, Nems, Eminem, and Kanye West, his tracks are a tribute to the roots of the genre and the diversity of his Brooklyn upbringing.
