Dom Kennedy born Dominic Hunn, Los Angeles California 1984 is one of hip-hops newest stars and he’s here to stay. Hailing from the West Coast Kennedy has a style reminiscent of a Currensy and J.Cole hybrid. Using each record to tell a story with his cinematic flow and delivery he easily captivates any listener. Listening to Dom's records you immediately feel like you are wherever Dom is trying to take you thanks to impressive beat selection nostalgic of an early Wiz Khalifa. The main theme is his own story of a kid growing up in Leimert Park finding his way through life. From hangin’ with the homies on the block to finding a wife among hoes and even struggling with classes and professors it seems as though there is a thorough storybook on Kennedy’s shelf. 

Dom’s most notable release “From the Westside with Love” and his most recent “Yellow Album” are perfect examples of the rapper’s mastery of his craft. FTWWL is a come-up story and it completely tells the story of a rapper with his foot in success’s door. With powerful lines such as “Barack couldn’t even bring change like this” he lets you know exactly what he plans to do in the rap game. Fast forward to “Yellow Album” and Dom has moved from having his foot in the door to sitting on the living room couch. The mixtape boasts features from heavy hitters Kendrick Lamar, Too Short and Rick Ross and it shows Kennedy’s continued progressive growth and development.  While not quite as substantial as FTWWL, Yellow Album is a worthy listen as it demonstrates another side of Kennedy.  Unlike many rappers who completely flip and change up when success comes Dom shows versatility and adaptiveness rapper who instead of finding a new lane with success he chooses to luxuriously travel the same path. Kennedy is a voice missing in the mainstream rap game; many mainstream and established underground artists such as Rick Ross and Curren$y have already cosigned the Leimert Park kid so it’s only a matter of time before it's heard. So in the meantime in the words of Dom “Just Be Cool”.
