Biography
New York City native K7 had success in the mid-'90s with his fusion of rap, dancehall, and dance. His 1994 album, Swing Batta Swing, spawned the pop hit "Come Baby Come" and a club favorite, "Zunga Zeng." Prior to his solo success as K7, Louis "Kayel" Sharpe was one-third of Latin freestyle group TKA. Both K7 and TKA remained quiet throughout the rest of the '90s before each re-emerged with new albums in 2001. ~ Wade Kergan, All Music Guide| Discography: K7 |
