Villeion Empire Artist BTK Villeion has been selected for the highly-anticipated compilation, “KHAO Music Predicted Platinum Presented by The DJ Grid,” set to drop September 11.
The Missouri-based rapper and pop artist’s crossover banger “Name,” featuring Kittii Red, is the track. “Name” hit 300,000 YouTube views and 120,000 streams in less than a month. That and another BTK Villeion track, “Rolex,” made it into rotation at two popular hip-hop radio stations in Indianapolis: Hot 96.3 FM WHHH and Real 98.3 FM WZRL.
BTK Villeion (born Anton Kai) started preparing what would be his first album, “Cell 15,” while he was incarcerated, and the album dropped after his release in 2018. The following year, the West African native teamed with his brothers to launch the independent label Villeion Empire. From there he released six singles, including his hottest track, “Rockstar,” which attracted a fresh, new, young crowd to his area. The track quickly hit 800,000+ streams online.
“Rockstar” lives on his second album, “Drugs and Illusions,” released in Spring 2020, which also introduced hot tracks including “Other ‘X’” featuring Brandoshis. “Drugs and illusions” hit more than 500,000 streams in less than six months.
BTK Villeion’s style is characterized by his unique lyrics and vocals, in addition to his ability to exude confidence. Fans can follow BTK Villeion on Instgram, TikTok, and Facebook: @btkvilleion and Snapchat: @btk317.
Kevin “Khao” Cates, a multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated producer who’s worked with major talents including Jay-Z, T.I., Rick Ross, Ludacris, and L’il Wayne, and sold more than 30 million records, says what’s unique about “Predicted Platinum” is it places indie artists with major artists, and the heavy marketing promotion for the compilation can maximize exposure for hot indie artists.
