Bio
who is neo kiio?
well...
neo kiio is an artist from cleveland ohio who makes hyperpop and hip-hop, usually a combination of the two i suppose. inspired by artists like: tyler, the creator, 100 gecs, porter robinson, and kid cudi.
it all started with a love for video games to escape from the world and that became a wish to see a better world. with no one to tell his wishes to he decided he would tell them to a microphone.
check out his debut project "days into dreams" with the follow up coming soon. so stay tuned for much more!
the mask
loosely inspired by mf doom
an obvious inspiration of mine is DOOM. the way i always understood it, DOOM saw himself as the villian in his themes and music, so he made a mask that was inspired by a villian in media that he liked (this is my interpretation idk if that was really his thought process). anyway, my music often delves into things like anxiety and depression... basically mental health stuff. so when i decided i would wear a mask, i decided i would do what DOOM would do & have a mask similar to something in media that I like that is on theme with how i see myself. with mental health and anxiety being the theme & a love for video games basically built into my name (neo kiio / neo geo) basing the mask on a shy guy from mario just made sense. - neo kiio
