About A&M Music Group
Bio, Philosophy, and Mission.
The Collective Identity
Kinfolk is not merely a music group or a record label; it is a sonic ecosystem. Born from the tension between the sacred and the secular, Kinfolk represents a convergence of virtuosos who believe that the distance between the Saturday night block party and the Sunday morning pew is shorter than we think.
The collective is anchored by Dome (The Prophet), whose vision bridges ancient wisdom with modern struggle. It is balanced by the duality of the Gemini Suns (The Twins), fueled by the raw, nostalgic soul of Saint (The Heartbeat), and sharpened by the lyrical technicians of The Pioneers and The Syndicate. The global Hip-Hop fusion of The Red Clay Renegades
Underpinning every verse and vocal run is The Backbone, a live unit that ensures Kinfolk never relies on loops where a human touch is required. They are a family of storytellers, street theologians, and technicians, united by blood, rhythm, and the belief that music should bleed, breathe, and testify.

Backwoods Ballistic
The Red Clay Renegades are a sonic anomaly. They bridge the gap between the music of their grandparents (Bluegrass, Delta Blues) and the music of the streets (Trap, Drill, Reggaeton). They are "Old Souls" with young rage, creating a sound that smells like rosin dust, expensive bourbon, and exhaust fumes.
