The story
From the dojo floor to the DJ booth
Two names, one life.
In karate, the family name is Thompson. Off the mat, it's Kevin Brown Jr. Both came from his father, and DJ Kev is the one you hear.
They aren't three different people. It's one person with a legacy to protect and a lot he still wants to build.
The squad.
Three names, one player. Real numbers only.
Giving back.
Food, clothing and backpack drives through the Kevin Thompson Foundation, plus the Lil KA Championship and the Founder's Gala. The community comes first.
For brands.
Martial-arts families, nightlife and music, travel and style. Three audiences that rarely follow the same person.
Lately.
