When I was a kid I loved to read and write poetry. I listened to many styles of music and I composed regularly. Around 1998, I wanted to pursue a special poem of my own, and Hip Hop emerged, as I tried to give life to it. More important than the result was the satisfaction that I've had transformed poetry into music. It was like something magical was happening to me.

And thus, a new MC was born. Shortly after, I decided to face the rap more seriously with some friends from school and my neighbourhood. At that time, the name KO emerged not only for the pleasure of rhyming but also for battles and freestyle sessions.

The name Veteran recently was added as a natural consequence of luggage and experience accumulated over the years and materialized in this latest work but also to differentiate myself from all I've done to date.
