Allan Kingdom(21), a promising rapper from Tanzanian mother and S.African father born in Canada is continuing attracting mainstream American media through his massive music talent as Billboard has just placed him 2nd in it's new list of 7 break out acts.

This is What Billboard wrote about Alan "Allan Kingdom has traveled far from the lush outdoors of Minnesota to be in Austin on Saturday (March 21). At an intimate private BBQ held at the Patch House Austin, he performed a showcase that included selections from his 2014 release, Future Memoirs, while a crowd of influencers and industry folks treated themselves to some excellent catered BBQ. The close setting allowed for Kingdom to address the crowd face to face, share a little bit about who he was and where he came from in between songs. He capped it all off by playing a cut of "All Day," the brand new Kanye West track where he's a featured along with Theophilus London and Paul McCartney, which has already reached No. 15 on the Hot 100 and has more than 750,000 million hits on YouTube.
