Multi-platinum rapper and actor KYLE has announced that his highly anticipated debut album LIGHT OF MINE will arrive on May 18th via independently popular./Atlantic Records. The album announcement arrives after KYLE’s high-energy performance on the main stage at weekend 1 of this year’s Coachella Festival, where he was joined on the main stage by surprise guest, Chance The Rapper, to perform their 2015 collaboration “Wanna Be Cool,” as well as KYLE’s 4X platinum breakout hit single, “iSpy.”
KYLE recently introduced his debut album with the first two songs, “To The Moon” and “Playinwitme (feat Kehlani).” Quickly after its release, “Playinwitme” became an instant fan favorite, skyrocketing up Spotify’s U.S. Top 50 Chart. The New York Times highlighted “To The Moon” as “bright, clean, certain, an exercise in syllabic rhythm that tells an uplifting story…” while Paper Magazine recognized the track to have “…a melodic chorus you will not get out of your head anytime soon…”
This Summer, the rising superstar is hitting the road with longtime friend, LOGIC on his headlining “LOGIC PRESENTS THE BOBBY TARANTINO VERSUS EVERYBODY TOUR,” which kicks off on June 8th in Boston, MA and continues through the summer, wrapping in St. Louis, MO on August 3rd. Full dates are included below. For more information please visit
Throughout the remainder of 2018, fans can still expect lots more from KYLE aside from music. The Netflix original hip-hop comedy, “The After Party,” will officially introduce KYLE as an actor and will see the 25 year old making his acting debut, starring in the lead role of the movie. The film follows two friends through their music business adventures as they look to land a record deal before they must separate for college and the military. Co-stars include Wiz Khalifa, French Montana, Teyana Taylor and more. “The After Party” is set for release later this year.
